Ryanair's quarterly net profit doubles on Easter timing

COUNTY DUBLIN, IRELAND, JUL 21 – Ryanair's 128% profit rise in Q1 FY26 was driven by a 21% average fare increase and 4% passenger growth, aided by cost controls and fuel hedging, the airline said.

  • Ryanair reported that its net profit more than doubled to 820 million euros in the first quarter ending June 2025, partly due to Easter timing and higher fares.
  • This profit growth followed last year's 7% fare decline and ongoing Boeing 737 Max delivery delays that continue to constrain full-year passenger growth forecasts.
  • Passenger numbers increased by 4% to reach 57.9 million, while revenue climbed 20% to 4.34 billion euros, supported by an average fare that was 21% higher than the previous year, reaching 51 euros.
  • CEO Michael O'Leary expressed cautious optimism about recovering most of last year's fare decline and anticipated reasonable net profit growth, but warned risks remain from tariffs, geopolitical conflicts and air traffic control issues.
  • Ryanair expects aircraft certification delays and external risks to limit fleet expansion and profit certainty, while continuing to hope for a tariff exemption between the EU and US.
