I can't help with the profitability question but at least flybe have modified
their service. It only runs seven a day on Monday and a Friday and for winter 06 it definitely shows six a day only (Mo-Fr). Also compared to last summer I think there are less 146's and more Dash 8's.

In early July BA had replaced the RJ100 (first BHX outbound) with a 145
although the winter it shows it as RJ100 again.

Also when I and a few others (from a BHX forum) had checked winter 06
all the Connect prices were the same and at a level well in excess of the
Flybe prices. Apparently in the past this has been a sign that the route is under review or about to be pulled.

Other rumours have mentioned it is okay.
