Amateur analysis of pax figures are pointless unless you are aware of yields/break even points for the various routes and airlines. You're also inconsistent when commenting - flipping between pax numbers and load factors as the mood takes you.

Pax figures are only good for bragging rights between airlines and airports - that's all. Any idiot (MOL?) can sell £5 notes for £1 and say 'look at the number of customers I'm getting'.

How about taking freight into consideration? Thats EK,PK,BE,TK,T5,LX,CO - even ZB and TOM aren't above selling a bit of hold space. There's probably a few more but I'm not at work at the moment so I cannot check.

Maybe if you asked the airlines nicely they'd tell you.......
