order back issues and use the historic Daily Express It rebranded as Flybe in 2002, continuing a steady rate of growth even through the global financial crisis. That used to be the case before the arrival of low-cost airlines, when domestic flying would be considered a luxury.In Flybe’s case, although it held a monopoly over most of its mainland domestic routes, it was undercutting rail fares sometimes by as much as 50 per cent or more. "Pilot’s union Balpa has since accused both the airline owners and the Government of “betrayal and broken promises”.The GMB union has said there are a further 1,400 jobs within the supply chain at risk in addition to the 2,400 Flybe staff.GMB also said the future of regional airports is at risk.Flybe had narrowly avoided going bust in January but continued to lose money since then.In a statement, chief executive Mark Anderson said the company had made "every possible attempt" to avoid collapse but had been "unable to overcome significant funding challenges".He said: ”The UK has lost one of its greatest regional assets.“Above all I would like to thank the Flybe team for their incredible commitment and dedication. This has to be the case because BA no longer operates internationally from the regions.At the end of the day regional airports, regional travellers and Flybe staff will be the losers.A number of Flybe’s regional routes cannot easily be accomplished by surface although a few, which could be accomplished by rail, were candidates for closure There may be cases for government subsidy where existing surface arrangements are unsatisfactory.The solution? Just consider the cost of a single airplane, the maintenance, the cost of fuel, employees, and marketing to get more people to use your airline.

Here are a few reasons to start… 4 Reasons Why Flybe Collapsed . "Flybe has been a key part of the UK aviation industry for four decades, connecting regional communities, people and businesses across the entire nation.
Some of the clues can be found in our piece on UK domestic aviation which we published in our December 2018 / January 2019 edition.In short Flybe failed because of its flawed business plan.Yes coronavirus hastened its collapse but at the end of the day Flybe’s pricing policy was wrong.For any form of travel, the operator with the fastest service generally charges the most. The reasons are two-fold.Firstly both concentrate on volume routes (where the cost per seat will be lower) and both operate larger aircraft in most cases. Flybe began life in 1979 as Jersey European Airways. This scenario applied especially on those niche regional routes where Flybe competed with train operating company Cross Country, which is known to be pricey.Flybe’s endless seat sales and the arrival of lower air fares generally (thanks to the low-cost carriers) has conditioned the UK travelling public that flying costs less than rail.But as contributor and respected aviation analyst John Strickland told Domestic airlines’ fares are inflated by Airline Passenger Duty (APD), and this has to be levied on each sector unlike the situation with international flights (where APD is charged only on the outbound flight).Domestic routes must also be priced very keenly because, unlike international journeys, the travelling public compares the cost of flying with surface transport.At this point readers might ask why carriers like British Airways and Easyjet are major players domestically.
