I'd absolutely agree with Skipness. Was going to book a flight with Flybe today for May 2014, and phoned their customer services to ask about certainty of flight operating.

Person who answered confirmed he was fully aware about the strategic review announcement this morning, including likely redundancies for approx 20% of all airline staff and what it meant. He mentioned he had received today an internal email about the strategic review and that, barring things like technical problems with aircraft or bad weather, all flights currently scheduled would operate as normal, that I should have complete confidence that all rescheduling was done 2 months ago, and that there would be no further dropping of routes or significant reduction in schedules between now and next summer.

Oh how I laughed at his naivety...
