Ryanair overtakes LOT

Ryanair has become the biggest carrier in Poland, overtaking Polish National Airlines (LOT).

Europe's leader in the airline business noted a growth of 11 percent in seat capacity in the last year, while LOT reported its capacity being down 4.2 percent.

In July Ryanair announced it had served over 40 million passengers from Poland and was consolidating its position as leader in the Polish airline business.

The portal anna.aero notes that as LOT is now expanding it might soon retake the leading position.
