Aldwickk, if you are spread betting with IG index I have been reading a lot of complaints about them doing that with various stocks.

Aldwickk, I point you to post 361!

Big seller still in . Going to have a feast here on results day. Was speaking to Evil K last night early on.

Fly me to the moon.:-)

Europe’s largest regional airline, Flybe, has recently announced significant new partnerships with Avios, part of International Airlines Group (IAG), the parent company of British Airways, Iberia and Vueling; PayPal, STA and has secured deals with UK airports for on-site car parking.

The milestone agreement with Avios took effect from Monday, October 27, 2014 and marked another step by Flybe to offer more benefits to its customers, adding value to their flight purchase and providing a broader selection of redemption opportunities for points earned through frequent travel.

Avios operates the global Avios currency for the British Airways Executive Club, Iberia Plus and Meridiana Club frequent flyer programs as well as the Avios Travel Rewards programs in the UK and South Africa.

The new partnership with Avios replaces Flybe’s existing Rewards4All frequent flyer programme. Rewards4All members will need to redeem their outstanding points within six months from today’s announcement. Redemptions can be made on flights up until October 24, 2015. To guide members through the redemption process, the flybe.com website will provide clear information on the process.

This agreement follows the airline’s partnership recently announced with STA Travel, which has established Flybe as ‘Preferred Partner for Student and Youth Travel’ with the world’s largest student and youth travel company with a 2.3 million database.

And Flybe customers booking flights online at www.flybe.com now also have the added benefit of paying for them with PayPal whether they are paying in British Pounds, Euros or US Dollars.

Those wishing to make bookings will not need to enter their credit card details when buying Flybe flights online with PayPal, making it a fast and convenient way to pay. This is an added bonus for the many hundreds of thousands of Flybe passengers who either do not have, or dislike using, credit or debit cards. It also streamlines the booking process by reducing the amount of ‘clicks’ needed to move through the Flybe booking process.

The airline’s new on-site parking partnership that took effect last month gives customers the opportunity to add on-site airport parking when booking Flybe flights online for those departing the majority of its UK airports.

The new on-site parking option is available directly with each airport and will always offer the closest available parking to the Flybe terminal, including access to all onsite airport parking including Short Stay and Meet and Greet. When choosing the parking option, customers can also opt in for access to business lounges and fast track security at selected airports.

Paul Simmons, Flybe’s Chief Commercial Officer, comments: “As Europe’s largest regional airline, our aim is to ensure that we are providing our customers with added benefits and the fastest and most convenient way to travel to their chosen destination. It cements further Flybe’s status as ‘the fastest way from A to Flybe.”

Flight delay compensation.......as pointed out to me elsewhere I was missing something......passengers per flight!, apologies.

Taking 2013/14 FLYBE had about 7million passengers and 103,431 flights, so roughly 68 passengers per flight. They had 0.44% of their flights delayed greater than 3 hours = 455 flights. Total number of passengers that could possibly make a claim (previous caveats apply) is around 30,900.
Jet2 2013/14 had about 4.6million passengers and 19,200 flights, so roughly 239 passengers per flight. They had 0.85% of their flights delayed greater than 3 hours = 163 flights. Total number of passengers that could possibly make a claim (previous caveats apply) is around 39,000.
Jet2.com are allowing for an annual figure of £3m to £5m for compensation claims. FLYBE having possibly 20% less passengers entitled to claim than Jet2 this would still equate to circa £3m pa. Even assuming that the average value per claim per passenger was £200 (for short haul, less than 1,500km) and Jet2 say £350 (flights 1,500+Km), then this would still be about £1.8m...........does anybody know how much extra profit is likely due to reduced aviation fuel price??, £1.5m?, £2m?.
Having re-calculated JET2's compensation estimation using passenger numbers it does now seem more realistic and possibly they envisage only a 50% success rate as the average is just over £100 per person! whereas the minimum level of compensation is £200.

3 million hit. That puts the company back at least 2 to 3 years.
GF I think you have struck gold again.

The song ALICE ring any bells? :0)

Who the fxxxs sinutab.

I don't hold this stock or am I trading it, just in awe (disgust) at the lengths gf is activating here on a personal vendetta.

Even a clock is right twice a day.

sinutab, you must think we all came up the Clyde in a banana boat. It's perfectly obvious to anyone with half a brain who you are.

Just a fringe benefit that sinu straight to the bottom line mind, its the 10 rust buckets on the ground and the poor hedging which is going to see to this one, and dont forger just one whisper of ebola in Europe and you will see it tank.

Patience patience as always.

You forgot to post the response to that sinutabbyfingers.

Not taking anything away from your post DD4 ( hard earned etc I agree)but apart from financial ratios I think you either have faith in the management or you don't imo. I believe a 5% reduction in oil price saves Flybe £2 mill but Saad can't control fuel prices. The costs he can such as more fuel efficient planes/load factors/margins/code share he seems to be doing well. Any contingent liabilities for flight delay claims will be swamped by the £47 mill costs savings and further £15mill or so going forward imo. I'm surprised he doesn't mention the fact when comparing cost to high speed trains that HS2 will cost £130 million per mile so 2 miles of track = flybe mkt cap."

We all know about that, sandoval shouldnt have to remind posters and if you didnt know..............welll!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its already priced in.

sinutabbyfingers, are you 90% successful on your trades as well?

Just the shorts, and anymore childish remarks and Ill filter you.

You did filter me weeks ago.

come on children; time to put the dummies back in the mouth :-)

Cynic, if you have nothing positive to contribute to this thread then stop behaving like a silly headmaster. Thanks.

He can't help himself.. assuredly -):

dd4 - perhaps you (and chris and gf) might care to start acting like a sensible adult, then you wouldn't need positive supervision

i've just tried booking a notional flight Soton/Bergerac/Soton and gave up as it was user unfriendly

that's bad news and stupid"

That was his first post on this thread Stan, he couldn't even figure out how to use the online booking system which was invented for dummies.:-) Plus his best buddie, "sticky" has done nothing but crawl all over this thread for the last three weeks with deramping nonsense. I make no apologies for sounding pissed off with both of them !
