My question to those of you who wish to insult me or question my motives I must ask if you consider this to be the Flybe-9 discussion thread or the Flybe-9 platitudes and deflection thread. I'm logging off for a while now.

EU261 is a good law that has kept airlines "honest". A TOC isn't required to award you EUR250 when your rail service is cancelled. They refund the ticket price. Why should a domestic air carrier be obliged to fork out a multiple of the ticket price? I must ask if you consider this to be the Flybe-9 discussion thread or the Flybe-9 platitudes and deflection thread. |
Is EU261 getting kept after the Brexit transition period ends?

Ozzy spot on
The suggestion that Flybe are could br skimping on maintenance is probably libellous as it seeks to potentially undermine a carrier which is under rxtreme pressure at the moment.: potentially undermining customer confidence Not to mention , the considerable anxiety which the employees must be siffering |
I seriously expected Flybe to reduce or end their flights out of LCY at some point due to the routes they are proposing to run from SEN this year. I am surprised to see a 3 daily LUX flight starting the end of March.

Looking at the new routes they are launching from SEN this year. Direct EDI flights aren't showing in the booking engine and I only found a few direct IOM flights. Are they having a serious rethink already?

It isn't the passengers' fault that age profile of FlyBE planes is so high Average age of the Flybe fleet is, what, 12-15 years for the Dashes and 8-9 for the EMB175's. I see you are from Germany, so maybe compare that to average fleet age in your national carrier? |

SEN-EDI looks like it starts on the 15th June.

That demonstrates either a lack of knowledge or is really just plain trolling.

Seems pertinent. If they don't pay their Air traffic control fees the planes will be impounded irrespective of whether the planes are owned or leased. |

This screenshot actually mentions that rising maintenance costs are in part precipitating this crisis so... are they dutifully paying these maintenance costs or balking at the them in the face of their obligations. This part is especially interesting A collapse on the other hand, would bring the scruting of the Insolvency Service and regulators. |
A plane in its teens used for short daily domestic operations has a huge number of cycles on the airframe and is nothing like a plane crossing the Atlantic once a day or making a bucket and spade trip down to the south of Spain. If they don't pay their Air traffic control fees the planes will be impounded irrespective of whether the planes are owned or leased. |

And they are designed to take account of that. Their fleets are younger than competitors like Loganair and Eastern, and their jet fleets are also younger than Cityflyers - your point is??
