I really hope that things improve for everyone at Flybe. The sad thing is that the original Flybe crew probably have nothing better to compare their company to, and think that the way things are at the moment are "normal", but this definitely isn't how an airline should be run. It's a complete shambles.
Miss Bacon are you trying to politely say that Flybe crew can't make it into other airlines? Most if not all at my base are ex-flyer's with other airlines (even bigger than BA) and are simply at Flybe for personal reasons such as being based at home as it a regional airline, based in regional areas. As you probably know (being based at BRS) you don't have a lot of options in some airports and not everyone wants to move to LGW,LHR and most have been there done that.
