The A319 is a fair point however I wouldn't know what the seat limits would be on that off hand. I know that they are rated up to about 70tons takeoff weight so assuming that they would need around 15tons of fuel (again, dont have A319 figures but using the 737-700 as a fuel burn comparitor) it should be around 136 passengers without additional cargo. Thats a ballpark figure obviously..
In response to queries RE the A319. One operated BFS-LHR-BFS-LHR-BFS-LHR-SNN, overnighted for maintennance check, then SNN-LHR-BFS etc. the next day last Tuesday/Wednesday.
