Last week the loads on my outbound were commercially disappointing (less than 110 pax) however the crew taking our flight straight back had a full flight.
Interesting. I used to fly through there regularly, in preference to SFO. But now that BA is paying for TSA Pre-check, the security line at SFO is a breeze. With better lounges (if you include Cathay) at SFO, and being a bit closer to the office, it's a no-brainer.
Now I only fly from/to SJC if I'm paying with Avios and there is more availability there.
I do hope they keep it up though - having another option to the Bay Area is great.
