Same for LIS with one day, Aug 24th, at £486.

Suspect that flights to Scottish islands is summer service only.
Well spotted teledude, and I think you're right IFE Wizard. That wasn't something I'd considered when looking, and I think I'd started my search from Sept/Oct onwards.

My typo when writing the post, Calchas - even if there was, I'd lose out on a whole 40 TP

Thank you for your suggestions, everyone.

It's actually still possible (for a 2 night stay, at last) for both KOI and LSI (or a mix of both) for ~£632 to the end of August. For example:
