“Today’s confirmation of the sale of Flybe to Connect Airways secures an exciting future for our customers & employees as we continue to provide vital regional connectivity in the UK & beyond.
She and her chairman have presided over the destruction of £150m of shareholder value in under a year and she makes it sound like success? "Sorry that we right royally screwed it and everyone up" might be a more appropriate press statement today
'Lions led by Donkeys' comes to mind. I feel gutted for the staff with the worry and uncertainty they have had to endure this past year. Whilst it's great that the airline is still operational, the great staff deserve a whole lot better; hopefully the incoming owners will realise it and build a much more professional BoD - this lot have truly earned their own dismissal through their woeful lack of experience and professionalism. Credible CEO's please apply now. COW: Close to You? No thank you.

"Lions led by Donkeys"
Donkeys are not as stupid and inept as these people.
Donkeys are warm,intelligent creatures, more so than a great many humans.
Have a great weekend at Stad de France.

A220's and ATR's would be good
Nice new Jets and replacement of the "old" props that have got bad PR over the years
But unfortunately a single type only way forward at moment.
