I believe (though am happy to be corrected) that LEA (Luxaviation UK) no longer operate King Airs. And I'm not convinced Stapleford is used for commercial flights either.
Fairoaks has IFR departure/arrival procedures using Farnborough ATC to access the airways system outbound and inbound, Farnborough will provide service until the airfield is in sight.
Synergy very rarely (in my experience) have to divert elsewhere due to weather.
