Flybe is to stop flying between Aberdeen and London Gatwick from next month.
It took over the route in March 2008 when British Airways dropped the service.
Flybe said the route would finish on October 28 "after much consideration".
Rival low-cost airline easyJet quickly issued a statement saying it remained committed to Aberdeen.
It operates up to 23 weekly flights to London from Aberdeen and claims to have delivered over 50% growth in the last year after introducing a service to Gatwick.
