RYANAIR BEATS EASYJET ON PUNCTUALITY EVERY MONTH Ryanair, Europe's No.1 low fares airline, today (11th June 04) celebrated beating Easyjet for punctuality every month of 2004 so far. The CAA recently released official punctuality statistics for 2003 which confirmed Ryanair No.1 for punctuality and Easyjet barely scraping 8th place. The trend has continued for 2004, with Ryanair beating Easyjet every month of the year so far. Ryanair's Head of Communications, Paul Fitzsimmons said: ' Ryanair is Europe's No.1 on-time airline and that's official from the CAA. Ryanair beat Easyjet in punctuality EVERY week of 2003 and so far EVERY week of 2004. The message is clear for passengers - if you want Europe's lowest fares and Europe's best on-time performance then fly with Ryanair. Easyjet is charging consumers more for the privilege of being late. This year Ryanair will carry more passengers than Easyjet, because only Ryanair delivers the lowest fares and unbeatable on-time performance. That's why more and more consumers choose Ryanair - almost 28Million of them this year!' 1 04-Jan 90% 73% 1 2 12-Jan 91% 80% 1 3 19-Jan 95% 84% 1 4 26-Jan 95% 89% 1 5 01-Feb 85% 64% 1 6 08-Feb 93% 81% 1 7 15-Feb 95% 84% 1 8 22-Feb 91% 84% 1 9 29-Feb 89% 69% 1 10 07-Mar 93% 80% 1 11 14-Mar 93% 80% 1 12 21-Mar 92% 82% 1 13 28-Mar 95% 88% 1 14 04-Apr 94% 87% 1 15 11-Apr 93% 88% 1 16 18-Apr 95% 85% 1 17 25-Apr 96% 92% 1 18 2-May 94% 85% 1 19 9-May 93% 81% 1 20 16-May 95% 84% 1 21 23-May 94% 87% 1 Source:Ryanair.com & easyjet.com Ends: Paul Fitzsimmons - Ryanair Pauline McAlester - Murray Consultants Tel: 00 353 1 812 1228 Tel: 00 353 1 4980 300 This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange
