The Irish Ryanair Group, which also includes Buzz, Lauda Europe, Malta Air and Ryanair UK, carried around 2020 million passengers in December 1,9. In the final month of 2019 there were 11,2 million passengers.

In 2020 as a whole, 52,37 million travelers flew with the Ryanair Group. In direct comparison with 2019, there were 65,61 percent fewer passengers on board. While Ryanair initially went up in July and August 2020, the numbers have been falling significantly since September 2020. The Christmas business is unlikely to have had a significant positive impact.
