Flybe

Flybe was a British airline headquartered in Exeter, England. Serving 15 European countries, the carrier flew 8 million passengers a year. It was founded in 1979 under the name Jersey European Airways. Following several mergers, it was renamed British European in 2000. It had been operating as Flybe until 2023. It was named the most punctual UK-based airline in the 2018 On-Time Performance Service Awards.

Baggage

Passengers can carry on board one cabin bag no larger than 55 x 35 x 20cm as well as one small underseat bag such as a laptop bag or a handbag. These two items may not weigh more than 10kg. If the baggage does not adhere to the requirements, it will not be allowed to be carried into the cabin. If so, it will be transported in the aircraft hold and an additional charge will be collected. Cosmetics such as: perfume, toothpaste, deodorant, shaving foam, lip gloss can be carried in 100ml or smaller containers, all packed in a clear, plastic bag. Electronic cigarettes must be in a carry-on, not in checked baggage and they are not permitted to be used during the flight under any circumstances. It is recommended not to carry refills as some airports may confiscate them.

Hold baggage can be added online through the Flybe reservation tool, via the call centre, or at the airport, however the latter is more expensive. Passengers can choose from the two options - one piece of hold baggage weighing up to 23kg or two pieces of hold baggage, each weighing up to 23kg.
