General information Ryanair
In Europe it represents one of the major low cost airlines operating on over 200 routes with connections between 22 European states. It is one of the largest low cost airlines in Europe, operating on more than 200 routes and connecting 22 European states.
Over the years it has evolved into a profit airline [1], maintaining considerable profit margins. Ryanair has been characterized by rapid and continuous expansion, made possible by the deregulation of the European airline industry in 1997. Ryanair was founded in 1985 by Tony Ryan, a powerful Irish businessman.
Initially the company began operating with the Waterford-London Gatwick route and subsequently in 1986 a second route was added which made it reach the milestone of 82,000 passengers transported in a year with two routes and only two planes.
In 1991 Ryan commissioned Michael O'Leary to take the company to big profits by taking a cue from the American model already used by Southwest Airlines so that the fares had to be as low as possible by giving up the superfluous.
So it was that Ryanair competed with national flag carriers by attracting an increasing number of travelers with low cost fares and low cost flights with departures from smaller airports that offered them lower landing rates. After 10 years from its birth, in 1995, Ryanair reached the quota of 2,250,000 passengers carried.
