Ryanair handles record 72 million passengers in 2010
Ryanair handled a record 72 million passengers in 2010, representing growth of 10% from 65.3 million passengers in 2009. This result will no doubt enable Ryanair to retain its status as the largest international carrier by passenger numbers in 2010. In 2009, Ryanair was the largest international carrier in the world, according to IATA, with almost 24 million more international passengers than Lufthansa.
