The way I read this would seem to suggest that it's the last chance for the PSO funding of the route and if there isn't an increase in patronage, then it likely won't continue beyond 2025.

Anyone know what the passenger loads have been like and/or how Eastern's performance as an operator has been as they've certainly had some reliability issues on other routes?
