Slow start by the look of it, passenger figures 2854 and if three daily in the week and one on a Sunday, that equates to 20 per flight or 41% load factor. November is not a great month to start but early days.
Slow start indeed - I have flown three returns on this service since it started flying out on the 1615 flight and returning on the 1940:

7/10 November 14 pax out / 30ish pax back
21/24 November 50% out / close to 100% back
6/8 December close to 100% out and back.
Passenger returning on 8 December commented his 0600 departure on 6 December was very quiet.

One annoyance on this flight is that they usually land on the new runway at FRA which is as far as it could be from the stands bmiR use for this service so taxiing on arrival can take almost 20 minutes.
