flybe wins major award
Newly re-branded airline flybe (aka British European, formerly Jersey European) has been voted 'Best Shorthaul Airline 2002' by the Institute of Travel Management. In a year long study done worldwide on shorthaul carriers (it says here) - looking at a
range of factors flybe. came out top and is due to receive the award at a dinner in London next week. The Insititute of Travel Management are also due to give out annual awards for other categories including best long haul airline, train, ferry, car etc.
I wonder who got best long haul.. and is there a category for Low Cost- somehow I doubt it!
I guess the real good news here is that there is clearly room for a product that is not "cheap and cheerful" (well, more cheap than cheerful really).
Good on you, flybe!
