Flybe, one of the Europe's larges low cost airlines, is upgrading the plane it is using to operate its newly started services from Inverness to Southampton and Manchester, effectively increasing the seat capacity to double. Flybe is on expansion mode and it is increasing its flights to various destinations, which shows that passengers would be able to enjoy great benefits from the airlines in the coming future.
The budget will now use a 78-seat high-tech Bombardier Q400 plane, with the changeover set to commence on the 10th of July. The upgradation of aircraft has come about after ticket bookings exceeded the carrier's expectations-so now, the airlines would be able to accommodate more passengers in their flights.
The airline started operating its services on the new routes on the 8th of May and because to their popularity travellers will have the opportunity to travel on one of the carrier's flagship plane which is part of its fleet investment of $3 billion and is one of the world's most environmentally sensitive passenger flying machine.
Flybe's Chief Commercial Officer, Mike Rutter, said, "We've been bowled over by the immediate success of these routes. It's always been part of our plan to phase out the older aircraft inherited from our acquisition of BA Connect in March last year and replace them with our newer, more environmentally sensitive Q400s.
We're delighted that these routes have proved so popular, enabling us to introduce them so much earlier than originally planned".
