A lot of that reduction will be due to great wall leaving then returning, also fedex pulling MAN in favour of STN.
Pax figures arnt so bad considering the XL loss, as well as the futura flights and one or 2 travel agents going under.
Also considering the credit crunch and then the figures are easily explainable.
It will be down even more next month with BA pulling the JFK route, AA reducing frequency and the quieter period of charter operations.
Its going to be a cold cold winter, the only thing to look forward to is possible diverts in bad weather
