Ryanair Holdings said it canceled more than 1,000 flights in April due to the Israel-Hamas war and the air-traffic control strike in France.

The Irish low-cost airline said it operated more than 98,400 flights in April, when passenger numbers rose 8% on year to 17.3 million.

Passenger numbers for the rolling 12 months were up 8.6% to 185 million.

April's load factor--a measure of how full a plane is--fell 2 percentage points to 92%.
