Which? response to latest concerns over Flybe’s finances

Rory Boland, Which? Travel Editor, said:

“Coronavirus is hitting the aviation industry hard and this renewed speculation about the future of Flybe will be concerning for customers and for those who regularly use airports where the airline is the main carrier.

“While flights will be going ahead as normal for the time being, this is a stark reminder for passengers to ensure they have protections such as airline failure insurance and to book flights with a credit card so that they can reclaim the cost with their card issuer should an airline go bust.”
