For the return flights the connections are not as good (about 4 hours transfer time in SEN), but still I think certainly people from Groningen would use such options (even if it is only for example one-way GRQ-SEN-DUB and then back DUB-AMS or so).
I know that GRQ were keen to see connections offered to DUB, as were CFR who have succeeded in getting a DUB connection via SEN from April 2018, but no luck so far for GRQ it seems. ANR-SEN also offers connections to MAN and DUB from April 2018. Maybe an idea to ask Flybe why GRQ is not offering that option.
