Does anyone know if flybe managed to off load their pax on to
other operators?

They managed to get none of their flights out last night from BHX despite RVR's in excess of 1500, stating I believe crew duty hours.

The most annoying was BE411 which was late but the crew
were ready to give return figures to Belfast and they were
told to stand-down. It could well be that the pax for the
BE414 and 416 were transferred to Baby but this would be
a surprise if there were many spare seats on a Friday evening.

I trust the aircraft was required in BHX this morning and did
not want to get it stranded in BHD overnight? Still very harsh
on the pax if they were sent home when there was an operating
crew for the flight.
