All carriers have bad press. You only have to look at Ryanair to see the amout of negative comments there are on various sites, but folk still come back for more. Flybe is going through a difficult time with its future and the amount of cancellations the other day only magnify the problem. Like everything else in the world it is yesterday's news and those cancellations will soon be forgotton unless your an armchair pruner making it drag on for months!
