The airline raised its profit forecast for the year to March 2015 to a range of €620m and €650m – up from the previous estimate of €580m to €620m.
Howard Millar, Chief Financial Officer, commented: "We've made a lot of service improvements over the last six or seven months and we're seeing the benefits."
Late last year, Ryanair started promoting a more 'customer-friendly' image.
