Well, I truly believe that the Covid was just a tiny part of all this. By all the news I've read and watched on the media, seems that Flybe had already huge financial problems for months (or even years). Covid was just the last thing that broke everything.

I'm hoping Aer Lingus can offer a similar cheap service. 5:48 everything from there I can remember so well it gives me nostalgia 😂

[@mickboakes7023]

So very sad. Think the government should have put their hands in their pockets and helped them out. It was very much a people’s airline. Part of a internal transport system if you like, and of all the airlines that are no longer, I think Flybe will be missed the most. There will be a great many that have to find alternative transport for work and U.K. trips now. After all their slogan was faster than road or rail. Great that you managed to fly with them before their demise and the tribute and dedication you gave them was very touching. I am with you in wishing everybody at Flybe the very best of luck for their future wherever it may be. Mick🇬🇧😔

[@OnBoardHD]

As far as I know, they had already some help with big tax reductions (that led other airlines to claim that it was not fair).... what I mean is that almost every specialized opinion on the sector is that Flybe was going to go bankruptcy anyway. The only question was "when". It's really sad to see them gone... but even more, if we check that more than 2.000 people have lost their jobs in the blink of an eye... =(

Actually, I was planning one flight with them in April.

¡Gran video Lucas! Una pena que haya desaparecido una aerolínea más. Y parece que no, pero el Coronavirus (COVID 19) está haciendo bastante estragos en todos los sentidos, incluido en el económico. Esperemos que no desaparezcan más aerolíneas (como por desgracia pasó con Air Berlin, Aigle Azur, XL Airways o Germania), y que tampoco tengan demasiadas afecciones por culpa del Coronavirus. Veremos a ver que pasa, aunque a mi juicio se está llegando a un alarmismo excesivo. Saludos.

Muchas gracias, Alejandro. Me alegra que te haya gustado! En este caso el Covid-19 fue la gotita que colmó el vaso (totalmente lleno ya en el caso de Flybe). La aerolínea arrastraba unos problemas financieros tremendos desde hacia unos meses. De hecho, voces experimentadas del sector decían que la quiebra era segura, la única duda era cuando ocurriría... La histeria colectiva por el Covid es exagerada. Por supuesto que nadie quiere coger una gripe y que si se puede controlar y eliminar virtualmente el virus, debe intentarse todo... pero de ahí a lo que se está provocando en la gente hay un mundo... y está impactando muchísimo en las aerolíneas.

The last flights I had with Flybe were from Dublin to Doncaster operated by Embraer 175's a lovely aircraft plenty of legroom but never much more than half full.

[@OnBoardHD]

I have another Flybe video on the channel, from Stuttgart to Birmingham, and it was initially planed on an E175 and I was super-excited for flying on it. But the day of the flight came and the plane used was a Dash 8. So I could never fly on that plane... =( Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed the video! I would love to continue reading your opinions in future videos! :)

[@AARON-ft9bz]

Working as a Flybe Gate Agent we were told to strictly enforce the bag policy we had no choice otherwise the crew would flag us up to HQ. The Dash also has small lockers so bags needed to be monitored. The coach would also have waited for as many passengers as possible as they would want to take as few trips as possible.

[@OnBoardHD]

Hey Jay! Thanks a lot for all this info! I understand perfectly that they needed to be strict with the bag sizes as they were operating regional planes with small overhead compartments. However, this was the most exaggerated control I've seen in more than 400 flights as a passenger. It was ridiculous. I've seen passengers paying 35 pounds (or 30, or 60, I don't remember the exact number) because the bag was some millimetres outside of the size. Of course, I'm not saying anything bad to you or your mates, I know perfectly that you just follow orders coming from the airline. Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed the video and wish you the best of luck finding a new job in aviation! Hopefully all this sh**** with Covid, the MAXes, the fuel price... will come to an end soon, and aviation will go back to its normal "routine". Greetings from Bratislava and thanks again for your comment!

[@AARON-ft9bz]

OnBoardHD - Flight Experience I agree Flybe shouldn’t punish passengers for their aircraft having small lockers. Other operators of the type tag bags for the hold and return them at the aircraft steps. It should be noted that from February the policy did change and Flybe began allowing passengers to check bags into the hold free of charge which probably helped contribute to its decline. We went from taking £200+ at the gate to nothing.

[@OnBoardHD]

@@AARON-ft9bz Good to know. I didn't know that. Anyway, that was just a little tiny thing that accelerated things a little. But it's obvious that there was poor management behind the airline... that was the main reason in my opinion.

[@devon896]

@@AARON-ft9bz Not really, the decline was down to piss poor management by Christine Ourmirers Widner and the Virgin take over where they were more interested in rebranding Flybe than fixing the problems with it.

El sector de la aviación de los más complicados para la supervivencia de cualquier empresa. Siempre que cualquier cosa afecta a la economía, la aviación es de los primeros sectores en sentir las consecuencias... y últimamente hemos tenido muchos factores: el MAX que sigue sin volar, el Brexit, el precio del fuel que no paraba de subir... y a todo esto se le añadió el coronavirus... se dan todos los ingredientes para que las aerolíneas más débiles o en peor situación financiera quiebren... =(

Why i'm live in birmingham and there is no one walking with shorts? When It was filmed????

[@OnBoardHD]

First, I would like to apologise for that misleading in your case. The video and especially the description of the video, states clearly that this is not the last flight of Flybe as an airline, but the last Flybe flight (trip report, video or whatever we want to call it) on the channel. I did the same when the Thomas Cook bankruptcy happened months ago and almost nobody felt misled. That's why I did the same, but this time including it also on the video. If I remember well, the video was recorded in Autumn last year. Anyway, thanks for the feedback, and again sorry if you felt kind of misled. Wish you a nice Sunday. :)

Ostras! Lamentable lo de la medición de maletas...qué manera de fastidiar a los pasajeros, por no decir otra palabra más fuerte...menuda "forma de despedida" de Flybe... 15:29 menudo castañazo!! jajaja

[@OnBoardHD]

Yo soy de los que defiende que a los pasajeros como no se los controle intentan meterte una maleta de bodega en la cabina, por lo que soy partidario de las mediciones... pero no de la forma que hacían en este vuelo. Desde luego que así no. Saludos!

[@onezgoone312]

They hadn’t disembarked that second Ryanair. The rear steps had only just been put on and they were still putting the safety rails on the front steps. The hold doors hasn’t been opened and you can se the baggage marshal signalling today see if the GPU has connected properly to the flight deck which is something that happens as soon as it pulls onto stand

[@OnBoardHD]

Yep, seems that you are right. My mistake when editing. Anyway, what I wanted to illustrate with that is that we were waiting a lot. More than 30 minutes on the bus because they were measuring to the millimetre every bag. Hope you've enjoyed watching the video!

Cuando vas a volar a o desde Bilbao otra vez?

[@OnBoardHD]

Pues lo cierto es que por ahora no tengo nada reservado.... pero lo que sí que tengo es un vídeo de Madrid a Bilbao grabado con Iberia... pero es muy antiguo... pensé que lo había perdido en su momento y no lo subí. Recientemente lo encontré.... pero ya digo... es muy viejo!! jjaja No se si subirlo...

[@JohnWilliamson_]

It's sad flybe has to go... BECAUSE NOW WE HAVE TO PUT UP WITH RYANAIR!

[@OnBoardHD]

I guess their business model was not the best one... regional airlines are struggling all around Europe. Low-cost airlines can offer almost the same routes more efficiently. Did you have any bad experience with Ryanair? I flew with them around 350 times and I didn't =/

Me ha gustado este vídeo por las bonitas vistas en la aproximación al aeropuerto de Belfast city y por el avión, siempre es bonito los turbohélices para los desplazamientos cortos sobre todo cuando sobrevolaba el mar con los barcos al fondo es impresionante. Lo malo es la quiebra de la compañía Flybe y con ello las consecuencias que acarrea de pérdida de puestos de trabajo. I am Sorry for the Flybe Workers.Un cordial saludo. A greetings

[@OnBoardHD]

Muchas gracias, Rafa! Un placer que te haya gustado. Últimamente estamos teniendo muchas quiebras... y estamos quedando poco a poco sin una buena variedad de aerolíneas. Al final... los que decían que la aviación en Europa iba a tender hacia las fusiones y quiebras, estaba totalmente en los cierto. Saludos!

Me parece muy bien que tengan que medir las maletas, si la gente no fuera tan cara dura, eso no pasaría y el vuelo no se retrasaría.

[@OnBoardHD]

Totalmente de acuerdo! Yo soy el primero que apoya esa medida al 100%! Sin lugar a dudas! Sin embargo, lo que quiero decir en el vídeo es que esta vez fue muy exagerado. Rozando lo indecente, incluso. Vi a pasajeros que iban delante mía que tuvieron que pagar 60 libras por, literalmente, milímetros de maleta que no entraba al 100% en el medidor (es decir, la maleta estaba toda metida en el medidor, pero sobraban literalmente un par de milímetros por encima). Me indignó muchísimo. Saludos!

Absolute Shame Flybe has gone. I was so looking forward to flying with them from Newquay to Heathrow. Flybe has been are solo operator for years from Newquay

[@OnBoardHD]

It's really sad to see them gone... In fact, too many great British airlines are gone already (Monarch, Thomas Cook... and now Flybe). Pfff =( What I think it's for sure is that other airline will take their place, at least in the most profitable routes...

[@captaincheez5568]

I wonder how you got that flight :0

[@OnBoardHD]

Well, both the video and, especially, the description of the video state that it means the last Flybe trip report of the channel. I hope it didn't mislead you... if yes, I'm sorry about that. When it happened with Thomas Cook I did something similar and there were no problems. That's why I've decided to do the same again. Hope you've enjoyed the trip report.
