I don't think replacing the D328 with an Embraer did anything to help the route as I find the Embraer rather cramped and not suited to my 6ft 2in frame, whereas the D328 felt much better. The block times for both types must be very similar so their hopes of increasing pax numbers by putting 'a jet' on the route seems optimistic; in reality pax numbers for the past four months are almost identical to those of the same period last year.
