I am not keen on predicting negatively - and I hope all goes well on MANANR. But it will be interesting to see if BM can make a profitable go on EMB135s when WX could not make money on a F50 - F50's are cheap as chips to run by comparison.
This was also my first thinking. But there's two ways to look at it in comparison:

Firstly, CityJet has a very high cost base.

Secondly, with FlyBe dropping the Brussels flights which I used to frequently pax on, there's a shortfall in supply for flights to Belgium which CityJet were likely unable to predict.
