So if I read today's spending review correctly, the routes that will get funding are:
  • Carlisle - Belfast, Stobart Air Daily return
  • Carlisle - Southend, Stobart Air Daily return
  • Carlisle - Dublin, Stobart Air Daily return
  • Edinburgh - Oxford, Links Air Double-daily weekdays and daily return Sunday
  • Dundee - Amsterdam, Flybe Daily return
  • Derry - Dublin, City Wings Double-daily return weekdays, single return weekends
  • Leeds/Bradford - Newquay, Flybe, Daily return (MWFSS) - summer and 3 daily returns (MFS) - winter
  • Norwich - Newcastle, Links Air Weekday double-daily return
  • Norwich - Exeter, Flybe Daily return
  • Southampton - Munich, Flybe Double-daily return weekdays, single return, weekend
  • Southampton - Lyon, Flybe Double-daily return weekdays, single return weekend

I guess the Links Air routes could be a non-starter for obvious reasons.

Those four made it into the second round, but I do not see them mentioned in the spending review document:
  • Durham TV - Belfast, Links Air Double-daily return weekdays, single return Sunday
  • Doncaster Sheffield, - Frankfurt BMI regional Weekday return
  • Norwich - Charles de Gaulle, Flybe, Daily return
  • Norwich - Dublin, Flybe Double-daily return weekdays, single return weekend

After the first round, those four had already dropped out:
  • Derry - Birmingham, Flybe, weekday return
  • Leeds/Bradford - Edinburgh, Flybe, double daily return weekdays, single daily return weekends
  • Oban - Glasgow, no operator specified, 2 daily return flights (MFS)
  • Oban - Barra, no operator specified, 3 daily flights (FS)
