Management’s objective is to schedule a sufficient number of flights per day on each of Ryanair’s routes to satisfy
demand for Ryanair’s low-fares service. Ryanair schedules departures on its most popular routes at frequent intervals;
normally between approximately 6:00 a.m. and 11:30 p.m. Management regularly reviews the need for adjustments in the
number of flights on all of its routes.
As part of Ryanair’s “AGB” customer experience program Ryanair has focused on high frequency and business
friendly timings between Europe’s main business centers.
During the 2016 fiscal year, Ryanair opened over 100 new routes across its network. See “Item 3. Risk Factors—
Risks Related to the Company—Ryanair’s New Routes and Expanded Operations May Have an Adverse Financial Impact
on Its Results.”
