- I understand your points. Although a US citizen myself, I have travelled on Ryan a few times. I would predict that, after being locked down for so long, a surprising number of people will nevertheless occupy the "distanced seats " even at a 30 % premium, for summer travel

Ryans planes fly many sectors each day on short to moderate distances ( like Southwest). They don't need to turn profit on each sector. Cheap fares bring passengers to share the fuel bill ( much lower at todays prices for Jet-A fuel) I don't have any skin in Ryans game, only speculating the 'conventional wisdom might have this wrong

Rysn air isn't the only travel partner to try incentives to get people travelling agsin. I read in the Dow Jones news that Carnival cruise lines is offering a 5 day cruise in Sept, for UDS $108, per person. I can't believe the low price but i can see why they are offering tickets for such s low price - to get people travelling agsin!
