Pax flow due time of the day

I have two flights, one departing 4:00 am and the other 11:00 am, same route, same aircraft.

Will the pax number be different due to "very early" flight (at 4:00 nor a earthquake wakes me up!)?

Yeah, they will. I don't remember what the time limit was, but if a flight leaves or arrives very early/late (like 2 am), there will be a penalty in LF. With longhaul it's not that big than with medium/shorthaul, but does exist there, too. And just like in real life, if your flight leaves at 4 am, you have to wake up at around 2-3 am (or not go to sleep at all...).

Edit: just noticed, that there was this same question 3 messages below this one in General forum. Click.
Also, use the Search function, when you have something to ask, so that if some1 already has asked about that same thing, you don't have to ask it again. Using search is much faster than writing a new topic, because when you search, you get the answer immediately, but if you write a new topic, you have to wait maybe for days before you get the answer!

Ok, my mistake. I´ll search next time.

Yeah. If there are 2 airlines, 1 flying at the daytime, 1 at night, they will prefer the daytime flight. Unless, it's a LH that departs like 11pm and arrives at 6 am.
