They won't be taking them from the schedule more likely they will be taking them away from the engineers.
Which will mean they will go tech later on usually at the most inconvenient time for all.
like it or not Flybe won't care, lets face it before the BCI thing they shut all the bases down in the CI.
The only reason before the service was as good/poor as it was, was their hands were tied getting crew back to base. Mainland crews and fog in CI the flights will be getting cancelled and the aircraft used to cover other routes with tech issues. Its a small market in the CI and your a captive market with very little choice.
I suppose there is always the ferry
