Four of Flybe’s Birmingham Airport routes have been hit by cancellations today caused by unspecified “operational reasons”.<\/p>\n

The regional airline has been forced to cancel a number of flights scheduled for today across seven different airports.<\/p>\n

The Birmingham routes affected are flights to and from Aberdeen, Belfast City, Bordeaux and Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

Flybe said: “All customers affected have been emailed and advised they can rebook for travel on an alternative flight or apply for a full refund.”<\/p>\n

The airline was bought recently by a consortium that included Virgin Atlantic and Stobart Group for just \u00a32.8m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
