In response to Flybe entering administration, Matthew Hall, Chief Executive of Belfast City Airport said:“First and foremost, our thoughts are with Flybe employees and passengers affected by this disappointing and unexpected news.
“Passengers booked on Flybe flights should not travel to the airport and should seek further advice from the Civil Aviation Authority.
“Flybe operated 10 flights to and from Belfast City, 8 of which are currently served by other carriers from our airport.
“Alternative travel to Birmingham; Glasgow; Leeds Bradford; London Heathrow, Amsterdam; Edinburgh; Manchester; and Southampton can be arranged through Aer Lingus, KLM, British Airways and Loganair which operates flights to Teesside International from Belfast City Airport.”
The below outlines the routes served by BE and the alternatives available:
- Birmingham – served by Aer Lingus
- Glasgow – served by Aer Lingus
- Leeds Bradford – served by Aer Lingus
- London Heathrow – served by British Airways
- Amsterdam – served by KLM
