It's not long ago that Dyce didn't even open on 01st Jan.

I'm sure the load factor is well south of 50%.

I thought dynamic scheduling was the new thing.
This morning's SEN-GLA flight at 07:30 went out with a handful of people on it. But the return leg is just short of being full. Perhaps the overall load factor is 50% or less but if there's heavy demand (and I assume high fares) in one direction it's entirely worthwhile to run so many flights.
