The announcement that Flybe has gone into administration came as a shock to passengers up and down the country this morning who are due to fly with the operator in the near future. One passenger, who had just booked their luggage last night, described the news as 'frustrating'.
Passengers were told not to go to the airport earlier today after the regional airline ceased trading and cancelled all its scheduled flights with immediate effect.
The UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) urged those affected to seek out information on its website and apologised for the distress caused to all of Flybe’s employees and customers.
