Have you ever been to Malta in the winter? Like much of the Med, it is cool, damp and unwelcoming. Nothing whatsoever like the Canaries climate. There is a reason why seasonal routes are seasonal you know......apart from those with vfr components. And there are few to none of those in the NI / Malta market.
It's nothing to do with airlines not liking NI it's just the market
