Literally all Ryanair flights are rammed with 95 per cent load facors systemwide (even discounting no-show that Ryanair traditionally counts as well):

Ryanair’s Kenny Jacobs said:
“Our February traffic grew by 10% to 8.2m customers, while our load factor jumped 2% points to 95%.
So by that logic, no route should ever be dropped by Ryanair. But 95 per cent load does not necessarily mean that you make money. I need to travel tomorrow domestically in Germany and just for the fun, I had a look at Ryanair's offering. 36 hours before departure they were selling tickets for 25 GBP. So the plane will probably be rammed, but not earn money.
