Jabird,
From what I understand the majority of charges will be levied at the time of booking whilst on the Flybe website. It would only be adhoc charges that would be taken at departure time and these passenger are likely to be referred to the ticket desk for payment. Given that over 80% of Flybe passengers book on the internet it shouldn't involve too many
Those with hand bagagge can already check-in at the designated hand baggage only check-in desk at SOU or at the Flybe ticket desks. With self service check-in becoming more and more popular I think it highly likely that joining a queue to check in with Flybe will soon be a thing of the past, meaning less check-in desks being required and less people going through this process prior to boarding, hence less congestion. Whether you like it or not flying is becoming more and more like simply jumping on a train or bus.
