Flybe in trouble with Department of Transport
Flybe today have been told to reverse their policy of charging pax for hold baggage.
The problem has arisen because of increased scanning of carry on bags. The present policy is that 25% of all carry on bags have to be manually searched and because more pax now carry on their own baggage to avoid the charge, the result is extended delays going through security causing major disruption.
Flybe have been given 14 days to respond. I guess Ryanair will have been contacted as well. Talk about 2 peas in a pod!!!
