I don't see why a deal that would happen to assist domestic operators would be banned by the EU. Other EU countries have arrangements like this and comply with EU law as long as there is a level playing field. Presumably Flybe and other UK airlines will still want to fly into the EU next year so just telling them to get stuffed isn't realistic.
