whats the famous saying that planes don’t make money sitting on the ground?

Wonder if it’s to do with crewing rather than not wanting to send the planes out?

Flybe could easily mirror the success of Jet2 holidays from the regions. Yes may not be as cheap but niche city breaks etc could work plus they have a few sun routes and could fit a few others in inbetween flights I’m sure.

theyve signed up with TUI on a few routes from CWL such as VRN and the Ski routes why not tie in with a hotel provider?
