Flybe MME and still in £Trubble

Thanks - Tis is a Flybe franchise operation - J41 operation not nice.
Ludicrous fares structure start from £90 o/w to yes, £800!!
You just take one look & walk away......

Flybe now asking the Govt for a £100m loan, on top of the deferred £106m APD tax bill....
Times quotes - The depth of the financial crisis at the domestic carrier has been revealed, with Flybe’s chief executive reportedly telling staff that he would be going to the government for a loan to see the company through the winter. Ouch.

Feel sorry for the staff -- hope they have other job and/or financial parachutes at the ready to escape?
