Unlike Other Airlines, Flybe Is Paying Their Customers to Fly

Posted April 29, 2008 by Joyce Wan

Flybeplaneweb This sounds like a great April Fool’s day joke—the low-cost airline that pays you to fly instead. Remember how, when you were young, your parents would make you do chores you didn’t really want to do by giving you a teeny bit of pocket money? This reminds me of those times.

Flybe, the low-cost European airline, has decided to make 172 passengers do a chore they hadn't intended to do (fly with them) by paying them pocket money. Okay, to be fair, £30-£40 is a lot more for a few hours work than I ever got from my parents.

And now anytime I need some extra pocket money, I’ll know where to go. Dublin to Norwich.

Flybe are a rubbish airline - the sooner they go bust the better. They charge you your airfare again to jump on an earlier flight...what a rip off...
