You have to remember that both IAH & ADD are split loads. What I don't know is what the split is for Manchester? Does MAN have 50pc, 30pc of the seats allocated to them - I don't know. Remember the flown seats are presumably the uplift at MAN and therefore the load-factor might need adjusting accordingly.
With regards to BGW & JED yes, i would agree but I understand that IA are able to charge high fares which should, if true, give a reasonable yield on a lowish load. What freight does SV carry - a good cargo figure could offset a lower passenger number.
These are only my thoughts as a non-airport person.
