Flybe, originally known as Jersey European Airways, was a British regional airline that operated primarily within the United Kingdom and Europe. It was founded in 1979 and became one of the largest regional airlines in Europe. Flybe was headquartered in Exeter, England.
The airline specialized in providing domestic and short-haul international flights, connecting smaller airports to larger hubs. It played a crucial role in providing regional connectivity within the UK. Flybe operated a fleet of turboprop and jet aircraft, including Bombardier Q400, Embraer E-Jets, and others.
However, in March 2020, Flybe ceased operations and entered administration due to financial difficulties, which were exacerbated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the aviation industry.
As of my last training data in January 2022, Flybe had not resumed operations. Please check with reputable sources for any updates or changes in the status of Flybe or any potential revival of the airline beyond that date.
