As has been mentioned many times in reply to your repeated questions, load factor means nothing! If you're selling 100% of seats for £1 each you're not going to be making a profit but the stats could look 'good'. On the other hand you could sell only 60% of seats but at a decent enough yield for the flight to be profitable. Turkey on the whole is in a downward spiral and I don't know many sane people thinking of going there for a holiday where the idea is to relax in safety and serenity. Only easyJet's commercial planning will know whether the route will continue next year although the trend would suggest that it's unlikely. Maybe email Neil Slaven and ask as that's the closest you'll get to an answer! Or just wait to see what is released.

Any chance you could refrain from asking on every single thread that has a slight link from now on - it's getting rather tedious.
