Eastern managed to fill a daily J41 between IOM-GLA, as did Citywing with 2 daily L410s at higher fares than Loganair charge on their less frequent EDI-IOM. I've taken the EDI service four times now and the highest load has been leaving IOM on a Friday evening with 20 on board the 340. Whilst the tram to Edinburgh Park & the train back to Glasgow is a pain (and there's normally quite a few pax doing just the same) it still beats the train down to Lancaster/Liverpool and the ferry. Loganair started the EDI service when Eastern were still running the GLA route so I guess they don't want to drop the route relatively soon after starting it.
