The load was pretty good. 67 booked, 65 onboard, so 2 no shows.

My work takes me to Exeter but I now live in Leeds so I have been counting the days for this service to start! I've currently got another 5 trips booked already.

I was very suprised to be on a 146 though, do you know if this is normal or was there a problem with a Q400?

Great stuff Vince, good loads, have heard that the loads on the Southampton route have been mega as well.

The 146 is the type assigned to the service, was initially meant to be a Q400, but will always be a 146 now.

I was hoping for a 146 as I have only flown on one once (long time ago) and have flown on too many 737's! Thanks guys.

Just for your info today (23/06) EXT-LBA had a load of 95, if it keeps up like this we may see it go twice daily!

95! Thats fantastic, FlyBe did say that when they started both Southampton and Exeter, they fully expected both routes to go twice daily, they surely will with loads like that, all the LBA-Southwest routes seem to have done brilliantly, the Air Southwest flights to BRS and NQY very rarely seem to be anything less than full, lets hope it continues :).
