On an aircraft with 451seats these are good load factors. If things continue this way could the managent extend the season, after all there is plenty of time to do so. Eitherway it bodes well for Summer `08.
Don't forget the aircraft is arriving from Manchester with a load already on board. The numbers of seats available from Glasgow were limited right from the start; there's no way that market can generate a full 744 load as yet.
