Flybe - 7
INV LCY was running at 48% load factor, Winter is always low loads at this time of year, some of the EZY LGW have less than 100 on them over the last week, dont think flybe gave the route time to develop
Dropping Routes
I see FlyBe have axed a number of flights from their SOU schedule with routes dropped or services reduced. Have they overestimated their 'London' operations with STN, SOU & LCY all being used?

BHX has suffered in the same way as SOU and INV, and I feel sure that despite the alleged sweeteners from MAG, if the STN / BOH routes don't perform quick decisions will be made on those too.
It's a sad indictment of today's short term attitudes that routes can't be given time to develop, but the fact remains that FlyBe were in a hole, and the new management has a strategy to get them out of it. Whether it's the right one will come clear during the course of 2015 I feel.

Looks as though Flybe are basing an E195 in MAN during Feb/March, is there any concrete planes for the remaining 5(?) after this summer? Flybe | Corporate | Media | News archive

What happened to the A319's Flybe were getting?
But when/if the E195's are to go, will Flybe not look to had the summer routes over to another operator. I know a lot of people were very disgruntled at the loss, understandably.

Not sure how true that is, last time I operated from Newquay and spoke to an Apple engineer he told me they had been decommissioned and mothballed. That was a few months ago though so I could be wrong. I know we've had issues with FBEM that was brought back into service from NQY, they don't like sitting around in the elements and I guess you can't get much more exposed than Newquay airport.
We've heard nothing internally about routes for 3 more 195s, we are doing sunshine routes from SOU and EXT as mentioned but I think those aircraft have already been allocated.
EK77WNCL, Flybe were never getting 319s, where did you get that from? The only time it has ever been mentioned was on here
