Ryanair broke its weekly bookings record by taking more than three million bookings in a one week for the first time in its history.
January 10 was the busiest day for bookings last week.
The most popular destinations included winter holidays to Lanzarote and Tenerife and city breaks to Porto, Milan and Naples.
Chief marketing officer Kenny Jacobs said: “We are delighted to announce this new weekly record of over three million bookings made on the Ryanair.com website and app last week, the equivalent of five bookings a second and more than half of the total passengers Virgin Atlantic carry in an entire year.”
