Statista overview report on affordable air services in Europe

Low-cost carriers in Europe

Budget travel is becoming the dominant form for travelers in Europe, a fact also suggested by the growth figures of low-cost carriers until the coronavirus pandemic started. This report initially presents an economic analysis of the low-cost airline industry in Europe during the coronavirus pandemic and focuses on two of the biggest low-cost airlines in the region - Ryanair and EasyJet.
As climate change becomes more of a priority, the last chapter tackles the impact of flying on our environment during the coronavirus pandemic and the flight shaming movement.
