Maintenance. Returning from, and going to. Problem at the moment is not enough technicians to keep up with demand.
I did a BOM trip a few nights ago. Total empty seats on both flights, combined? 3.
LAX trip a week and a half ago. Total empty seats on both flights combined? 7.
MEL round trip? No empty seats.
The passenger demand is there. Just need more technicians to keep the aircraft and passengers flying.
