Just been talking to friens ect and heard about the Q400 issues with them getting grounded for inspections.

Must be proving to be a real operational nightmare, not to mention the costs of canx flights, sub chartering to operate flights and the rest.

I am not saying that you have not had to deal with passengers from a cancelled flight, but you have to remember that ground staff have to deal with all cancelled flights, if the flight you are scheduled to operate is cancelled, what involvement do you have with the passengers on this occassion?

bloody hell front check,calm down its not a competition to see who has been busy dealing with cancelled passengers.all im trying to do is point out that a lot of us have been affected,not trying to make a point of who's had it worse the last few days.

They had a few problems with addresses (if anyone has moved let your reps know) also had a problem with Scottish bases as they never got them, that was why it was extended. Indead watch this space!

Thumbs down

So when we taking strike action? These pay talks have been dragging on for ages and ballot result sends a clear message to FLYBE that it's just not good enough - a resounding NO! Um hello can you hear us there in Exeter???? we deserve better than this.

What part of the pay deal were you not happy with? The pay deals went on for ages as they were very hard a bit like Let your reps know what you were not happy with so that it can be addressed at the next meeting.
No one wants stike action it's a last resort.

Flybe/EZY MAN

Hope the culture vultures at Exeter are thinking about MAN! The future could well be a different colour one sincerely hopes.
