This is incorrect... Dusseldorf is still a base this winter and has not closed down; additionally - SOU-DUS was always operated by Southampton based crew. I'd assume it just wasn't performing to expectations.
Also maybe worth noting that the press-release; "Flybe, Europe’s largest regional airline, has today (13th November 2019) announced the first phase of its 2020 Summer schedule featuring 104 routes with a total choice of up to 2,500 flights a week across the UK and regional mainland Europe." says that this is their first-phase of the summer 2020 schedule - so maybe other routes will see increase frequency, new destinations or return of destinations?
