I can foresee only the Skiathos route coming back and that's it. This is Powdair all over again!
That would seem to be the most sensible at this stage, with the flights no longer on skyscanner and barely any marketing campaign, going ahead with the full daily schedule is financial suicide which will see them go bust. They are obviously struggling to find an operator for all the flights for it to take this long to confirm.

In my opinion they're best off just doing Skiathos again, improve the loads and build up customer confidence, then they can look at a bigger operation for 2020.
