I m sorry to hear that Lucca you will be very very disappointed I think the world is going to ‘close down’ in a way for a few months for many reasons
Flybe has been in trouble before hasn’t or or am I thinking of another airline
I hope you get your money back, if you have trouble and paid on a credit card go through them, they helped my daughter very much recently when she had problems getting money back from an airline for a trip that was cancelled through the bad sandstorms the other week The credit card company disputed it for her and they gave a full refund

I am sorry about your trip Lucca so very disappointing.
It is also worth checking your travel insurance as some have airline failure cover.

Oh Lucca that is a shame, I do hope you will be able to get your monies refunded.

What a shame. Poor Flybe. I always liked their planes. I suspect that a lot of us will be disappointed by the cancellation of holiday and other plans this year. sad

It's just the start I fear. Sorry about your trip.
I have a weekend away planned soon. Just had a note from the organisers that it may have to be cancelled. We gather from all over Scotland.
It is disappointing.

Thanks everyone. It’s a group activity weekend and I managed to get a lift with someone as destination is in UK. I paid in debit card ? I’ll need to check my travel insurance. And you Henetha?

Hi Lucca. I booked with Flybe, Exeter to Dublin, and paid on a bank debit card. I had not yet taken out insurance!
I have relatives in Ireland so was staying with them, so it's only the flight cost I will lose. What a pain though!
Good luck with your trip Lucca
