    Complexity, complexity, complexity. Three good reasons to avoid FlyBe; but then that is just my view.

    Low cost? In what context? It still empties your wallet as much if its on the ticket or th barrage.
    Next time maybe I’ll just wear swim trunks. Would make going through security easier.
