Sunday night's LHR - IOM flight was from the gate next to us and I counted about 12 people from where I was sat who got on the bus.
Just as a counterpoint I flew Birmingham-Glasgow on Wednesday 8 May, mid-afternoon, and not only was it all seats taken but the fare was one of the highest I've paid for any domestic for a long while. It was notably more than returning the next day GLA-LCY on BA on the prime evening departure.
Didn't stop the notable complete lack of service, or even
politesse, on the FlyBe flight, particularly at the Birmingham ground end.
