Ryanair has today announced a 4% increase in passenger numbers for September as it operated over 111,700 flights during the month.
Ryanair said it carried a total of 20.1 million passengers last month, up from 19.4 million during the same month last year.
The airline's load factor - how many seats it fills on each flight - was steady at 94%.
Ryanair said it was forced to cancel over 1,000 flights due to problems with the UK air traffic control system, Belgian air traffic control strikes and the Mout Etna eruptions.
