Anecdoctal evidence from my eyes - loads ARE increasing. In the early days, it wasn't unusual to see c25 pax. Last 2/3 trips I've done, it's easily been 50 or more almost up to a full house on some days. I know it's about yield not numbers but, in the most basic terms, it can only a good thing to seen patronage increasing, repeat custom and word of mouth spreading that this is a really decent option for LON-ORK if you don't mind paying a little extra. LCY arrivals are beyond fabulous even with hold bags. I'm usually at Waterloo within 30 mins of touchdown, DLR and Jub Line co-operating. Also interesting to note that during recent inclement weather when FR and EI couldn't get in or out, the RJ85 just switched to the 07/25 runway. Was witness to a number of EI/FR pax desperately trying to get on WX.
