LUFTHANSA OUTFLIES RYANAIR

FRANKFURT AM MAIN


German airline giant Lufthansa said Wednesday it had carried 130 million passengers in 2017-

Nosing ahead of budget Irish carrier Ryanair to become Europe's largest airline by passenger members.

The German group -which includes:

Lufthansa's own blue-and-yellow liveried aircraft, Australian and Swiss Airlines. no-frills Eurowings and Brussels Airlines -boasted around 19 percent year-on-year  growth in bookings.

Meanwhile Ryanair reported growth of around 10 percent to 129 million customers.

Ryanair has made a policy of needling Lufthansa, with pugnacious chief executive  Michael O'Leary often using press conferences to call out by name his counterpart at the German Group, Carsten Spohr.
