Its been a rather popular route from BLK for many years.
According to CAA stats the route only carried 16800 passengers last year, down from 21000 the year before. If the 2012 service was a daily ATR42 (note: I don't know for a fact that that's the case), it's only about a 50% load factor. At those levels of load I would not be thinking about going from one a day to two a day, I'd be worrying about a reduction in frequency or an end to the route.
