Load factors are only a small part of the picture... what matters is yield. VB may have 60% load factors but they need dollar revenue, not passenger numbers. Throw in critically low forward bookings, high debt loading from new aircraft, and creditors may start to question solvency.

Hopefully here's a bottom to all this!
