There is strong potential, given STN's catchment area for such a service and could provide many with an attractive alternative to LHR, and to a lesser extent LGW in business trips/long haul transit via FRA or AMS.
Much of the Essex based business demand and connection traffic is serviced out of LCY where LH Group, associates LG and LO maintain a strong presence , similarly KLC with multiple daily Amsterdam flights. Not to mention BA Cityflyer !
