Well hopefully they will be trusted but it’s still worth remembering they’ve only been operating a few weeks whereas Loganair have been operating for years.

Lbaspotter put a post up about the Flybe crew member saying that Flybe are happy with future bookings. Hopefully that will increase confidence and trust.
 
4 passengers on today's LHR- LBA. Flybe cancelled thier LHR-BHD flight merging it with Leeds so the total load was 15. We arrived ~ 45 minutes late with the Belfast passengers due to arrive around 3 hours behind schedule.

On a positive, the crew were great and Vincent Hodder is currently in the terminal directing passengers.
 
Did the LHR flight go this morning? According to FR it was cancelled, LBA website says it was delayed, but FR had the inbound flight operating. I am really pleased that I decide to stop in bed this morning.
 
I've decided to log back in after two long years as I've started flying again and used both the Easyjet service and the Flybe service when working in Northern Ireland a few weeks ago. A friend of mine is now looking to visit and is trying to negotiate the current airline carnage. A few weeks ago, my journey was very successful and Flybe in particular was wonderful. As well as being bang on time, the crew were superb with a flight that was just over half full. I'm looking at Flybe's performance on the route since then and there appears to have been a significant deterioration in performance, including today's flights. However, it is fair to say that their performance looks to be shocking on all of their routes, not just this one.

I find it difficult to believe that Flybe are allowing themselves to become Flymaybe again quite as quickly as they have done.amd it does rather suggest that the problems that existed in the past will continue into the future. If that is the case, there is only one way the organisation is going.

Any ideas why the Belfast flights have been affected in the way they have, including today's flight?

I cant work out whats going on either. This evenings flight to LHR was cancelled but the board at LBA looks as if the northbound may still be operating- albeit its overdue.

Update ...LHR shows flight as cancelled. Leeds must have known this when the southbound was cancelled so why dont they update the arrivals board? This keeps happening and its very confusing.

Supposed to be 3 return flights a day. Looking like only one operated today.
 
All next week Flybe have reduced frequency of the LBA-LHR & LBA-BHD routes I'm guessing due to operational problems & lack of passengers.

LBA-LHR = 2x daily Mon-Fri & 1x Sat
LBA-BHD = 1x daily Mon-Sat & 2x daily Sun

June 6th normal schedule resumes.
Have I missed something here? Flybe are supposed to be operating 3 x daily to Heathrow arent they? Looks to me as if they are currently only operating a maximum of 2.

It seems you have. As lbaspotter posted previously they reduced it to two temporarily.
 
Flybe's LBA-LHR service remains 2x daily Mon-Fri & 1x sat until Thursday, June 16th

According to your original post it was the 6th, so theyve extended it by 10 days. Not a problem. I would say if bookings are 'soft' its the best option.
 
Tried booking flight out Monday and back Tuesday next week but still only showing 2 returns a day.
Well there's clearly no demand for 3 per day at the moment anyway. I would be surprised if the total daily pax would even fill a Dash 8 Q400. l

Heads Up!

For some weird reason, my days off work tend to involve being out of my flat by 5am and not getting back until 10pm. Back to work and the regular "fix" of 7.40am to 7.15pm hours
Heatwave Mk2 next week?
Some explosive weather build-ups currently in the North of England. What is it like where you are?
LBA: B737-300 G-GDFK empty down to Paris at 16:15 to operate the return LS268 back to Leeds 20:00 ETA where it will then operate the delayed LS265 to Malaga 20:40ETD
LBA: Albastar B737-800 EC-MUB positioning in tommorow afternoon from Gatwick 15:45 to operate a charter to Lourdes/Tarbes on Friday afternoon 14:00 AP7721 STC
I don't believe I am quite covering enough roles at work. Its now 4 on a bad day, 5 on a good day and there is scope for a 6th and 7th role. Still on minimum pay but had the biggest payrise in the company,
