Flybe have issued a statement and urged passengers not to travel to the airport after it has ceased trading and all flights are cancelled.
The airline, which operated out of multiple airports in the country, announced the news early on Saturday morning and now all flights have been cancelled and will not be operating. Passengers are being urged not to travel to airports if they have a flight booked with Flybe.
The Birmingham based airline was relaunched just last year after it was bought out of administration in 2021. It has been operating from Leeds Bradford Airport since then and flying regularly to Belfast.
In a statement the UK Civil Aviation Authority said: “All Flybe-flights have now been cancelled. Please do not go to the airport as flights will not be operating,” the authority said in a statement. “Flybe customers who still need to travel, will need to make their own alternative travel arrangements via other airlines, rail or coach operators.”
