Maybe add Ryanair's engagement to the list - lack of expansion, are load factors a concern? Are they in 'contractural obligations' mode?
I think the Aberdeen question has been proven many a time that if the service is there it has the potential to be a bigger route than it is.
The fact is loganair removed the based aircraft and that has meant only 1 rotation, which is easier to cancel at short notice because of crew location.
Before everyone jumps in and says it was because the numbers were down.... we don't know that and personally I believe it was for consolidation at NCL and they ve stayed on it to stop Eastern doing it multiple times a day, knowing that would have an impact on them shifting to a more NCL elcentric position.
By doing that they have shifted a number of passengers to NCL, possibly artificially inflating the NCL ABZ.
