I'd be surprised if anyone could sustain even a once-daily service with a A319/B737 aircraft size.
It's a thin route whose sole selling-point is frequency, which is allows for greater productivity than the equivalent train journey. Without an early morning and late evening option, what's the point?
NQY's only hope is that Flybe moves the route to another London airport.
Failing that...in an ideal world, BACF would make a go of LCY-NQY on the E190. When WOW tried the route there was silly over-capacity on the London market and low yields because it was in a head-on battle with Flybe at LGW at the time. Without competition, LCY might work.
Looking grim
