Eastern Wiseguy,

That they do....however with a recession looming will they have enough CUSTOMERS to fill their aircraft.
Yes

I wonder how exposed they would be in a straight fight against
other "lower cost" operators when every penny counts..?
There are no lower cost operators than flybe in their market segment. Flybe's biggest competitor is actually BMI (between the domestic routes of regional and baby). On what percentage of their routes do you suppose flybe are in a "straight fight" with RYR and EZY? Think about it now. 50%? 20%? 10%? 5%? Do a little research, then get back on here with some informed and valid questioning.
