Well my partner arrived home from Hannover last night on schedule and her bag arrived at 1100 this morning and they are now re-united. I shall be writing to Flybe for a refund of the baggage charges for each sector and, I hope, a sincere apology.
I jsut want to re-iterate that I have no problem with a bag not travelling as these things can happen. However, it was known that the bag had not travelled before the aircraft arrived in HAJ and yet the bag remained at BHX for a further 2 and a half days. My partner was calling Hannover airport and simply being told that it had not arrived yet. I then made a few calls and lo...the bag was now in Frankfurt to be transhipped to Hannover so we phoned Frankfurt but they could not guarantee delivery before my partners return flight. So the bag had a two day stay in FRA and then was returned to BHX and delivered to us by courier this morning.
So my gripe is the time taken to forward it and the lack of correct information being passed on. The overall Flybe service is good, however they may want to take a look at their contractors to make sure they are performing against the required standards.
Cheers

mutleyshriek, it has nothing to do with regional dialect. Yes I work for the company and they do have a number of faults in my eyes, mainly with their commercial decisions but then again they are one of few airlines that are still riding strong so I guess we cant win everyone over.
The problem with your posts is that they have no factual content and that is what pisses people off on this forum. You come on here and rant and rave just because you dont like them - is this because they stopped their LPL base? Not sounding rude but I cant blame them.......why compete with EZY when there are other markets to tap into...anyway this is seperate and irrelavent.
I really dont give a monkeys whether you are dyslectic or apparently have 15 years in the industry. This is not an english lesson, but you shouldn't just come on here and slag of a company just because you do not like them. I recommend you contact the airline directly with your woes rather than come on here and babble absolute nonsense. Anyway I am sure you will reply because you clearly have nothing better to do with your time than moan about BE - me on the other hand work for them and am very proud of the company the majority of the time!! Needless to say we have our bad days as do other airlines (lets consider EZY at LTN at Christmas) but we move on. May I suggest you also do the same.

Well done to everyone across the network. Hopefully people will now stop wheeling out the old 'flymaybe' tag as those days are long gone

Absolutely!
Everyone at my Base pulls out the stops to get people where they want to be as smoothy and on time as possible. Especially well done to those MAN guys and gals that got out in the snow and dug their aircraft out this winter.
Makes me proud to work for the company.
Roll on the next year!

Fellas, I'll feel the love with several of your (female) hosties (oh! wash my mouth out with a pint of okells) but you ugly bar stewards can forget it!
A gift from flybe lol - you fellas should take a look at arann to see what a 'gift' service is on the city route.

Without sounding pedantic, I think the comment refers to the words 'gift service' in an earlier post. The word gift suggests its free??Anyway this is ridiculous - can we go back to topic please.
With the current OA contract, and the Bahrain deal which has been discussed, has Flybe got any more plans up their sleeves? Not all employees get to know about what is going on but I expect someone on here will be in the know - obviously only to discuss things which can be talked about in a forum......

Cloud1..........There are a few things in the pipeline I am led to believe however have been asked not to say anything until signed and sealed although hopefully looks good. Saying that I think there were about 15 offers of work and only OA and Bahrain came off as being worth it. People are working very hard though your probably looking at winter work now though BE has a relativley busy summer schedule either scheduled or chartered.
Side topic does the Aegean/Olympic tie up effect Flybe? If Aegean were to get rid of their RJs for Q400's could be some more work? Anybody have any info? Someone based over in ATH I guess?
