You're right but the fact remains the aircraft does ABZ-MME-NWI so any pax joining at MME are a bonus, and a few will because it offers a quick and convenient alternative to the train. I had indeed considered check-in and onward travel.
I'd also reiterate this isn't something to get too excited about, and it is not going to lead to a plethora of new routes. Talk of Belfast or Bristol or anywhere else is pointless, it's not going to happen.
