Ryanair Loses Altitude Amid Airline Turbulence

The budget airline saw profits tumble 46% YoY, dragging its European peers like EasyJet, Jet2, and Wizz Air down during today’s trading. 🙃
Although passenger traffic rose 10% YoY to 55.50 million during the quarter, increased competition and capacity have pushed prices down. The company now expects second-quarter fares to be materially lower than last summer vs. previous expectations of flat to modestly up.
Still, it’s trying to push forward and make hay while the sun shines, operating its “largest ever schedule” with over 200 new routes and five new bases. However, investors remain concerned about its inability to drive profits and lack of visibility into the coming quarters. 😬
As a result, Ryanair shares plunged 15%, and stocktwits sentiment turned bearish as investors expressed concern about management’s ability to navigate the broader industry headwinds. 🐻
Meanwhile, Delta struggles to recover from CrowdStrike’s impact on its systems over the weekend, even as its competitors are back to normal. Management says technical issues are weighing on its crew-tracking software, making it difficult to coordinate staff and causing 1,300+ delays and cancellations on Monday. ❌
