Coffin - you state that my 'experience proves nothing' - well it does. It proves that where I have a choice I may well consider not using FlyBe. They eventually got last night's cancelled GLA flight's passengers into hotels, mine being at BFS. So rather than trek back down to BHD to catch a BE flight to EDI (where I really don't want to be) I am about to jump on a U2 to GLA. Given that I am in Northern Ireland every two weeks I am seriously considering changing my plans to involve flying U2 into BFS and FR into LDY. That's what experience does. Anyhow I am booked to fly with BE into BHX twice over the next fortnight so we'll see how they perform and I'll continue to compare my own experiences using each of the internal UK carriers.
