BHDflyer->32% equates to 56 passengers per flight. There would have been similar numbers in January in the early days of the Cork-Amsterdam service, but Aer Lingus stayed on the route and it does quite well now as regular business passengers have come to rely on the service. Of course, that was in a 737-500, so the load factor was more like 50%, but I don't think anyone will be panicking just yet.

The KLM code share has to be sorted out. That will significantly boost the numbers. I've no idea what's delaying it, but you would have to wonder at this stage.
