The Manchester flight returned to MAN tech so pax were moved over to the SOU flight and coached to BOH. The return was showing as delayed because pax went on a coach back to SOU. In theory both sectors were cancelled.
I was of the understanding the route was seeing loads in the late 40s on the Q400 which is not that bad really considering its still a fairly new route. I would not worry too much about it yet, if these loads are the same in 10 months time then you can be concerned.....
