Ryanair Holdings Plc Chief Executive Officer Michael O’Leary said the Irish carrier could almost double its passenger capacity through the rest of the summer as the European Union reopens for travel.

Europe’s biggest discount airline expects to attract up to 9 million passengers in July and August compared with 5 million in June and just 1.7 million in May, O’Leary told Bloomberg Television in an interview Thursday.
