The year round Alicante service of 39000 passengers gives a 'back of a fag packet' load factor of circa 85% (using a mix of Q400/E95), a great performance and clearly demonstrates the viability of this route in competition with RYR at BOH. Not sure whether it will be back this winter with BE's med routes being cut although any perspective operator I'm sure will have their eye on this once the runway extension is complete!
