    seats that are flown whether or not the passenger turns up because Ryanair

    not entitled to change flights or seek a refund.

    available for passengers.
 3. Represents the number of initial seat sales sold via the Ryanair internet
    site as a percentage of total initial seat sales. Initial seat sales exclude
