Do Easyjet cancel flights with poor load factors?

Hi

Apologies firstly if I'm posting in the wrong forum. I'm new to posting on here and not being in the business, this seemed the most appropriate place to put my question.

I'm travelling LPL-BRU this weekend. Having looked at the up to date prices, I have discovered that the fares are still cheap - particularly so for returning BRU-LPL on 19th Sep. Travel dates either side are more expensive. This (perhaps incorrectly) suggests to me that the flights I booked on are far from being full.

My question is this - do Easyjet cancel flights with poor load factors? Logic suggests that to do so would hardly enhance their reputation and but equally, operating a flight at a loss isnt good business.

I don't expect anyone to provide me with a difinitive answer and in reality, I dont suppose knowing that its a possibility would make any difference in practice. Its just good to know if they have 'form' for it.

Thanks
