Some of bmiR special contracts may have value notably their BAe/Airbus contracts and their oil/gas related flights to Groningen and Esbjerg.
And between ABZ-NWI

Suitable for a Suckling 328?

As for the trans boarder services
ABZ- MAN duplicated by Flybe
EDI- MAN duplicated as above

The flights from Glasgow and Edinburgh to Copenhagen have long been operated for SAS and could well be handed back for their direct ops with a Canadair.

bmiR have already lost their hold on SN Brussels connecting flight to well you know FLYBE !

That pretty much leaves just one route as as usual with the bmi group as was - a very random MAN- Lyon flight . That would fit very nicely into Flybes' existing and extensive French network.

Then there are/were a few rotations for LH to Hanover from LHR - well that will go to another LH group either Eurowings or Germanwings for sure.

Those slot sitters on off peak LHR- MAN/Scotland well those are now redundant. The slots are either transferred to IAG/BA or retained by the LH group (A significant number of slots have been retained by LH Group)

As said apart from paragraph one and those contracts that would certainly suit Loganair subsidiary Sucking and FLYBE franchisee , there isn't much left of value that i can see.
