Surely your base is where you'd have ' prestige routes '?.
Maybe they'd be better relocating over to Doncaster to one of those services offices to cut overheads and operate services from.there as a hub.
Leaving DTV And HUY With ABZ/NWI.
Why was British Midland (BMI) based in EMA when all their prestige routes were from LHR?
The answer is to base one's administration where office accommodation and general cost of living is cheaper.
British Caledonian proved such a point when for a period their operations department day to day managed the airline from a stand at the Ideal Home Exhibition.
