Position
Good morning ladies and Gentlemen. Welcome to Flybe’s presentation of its full year results for the year ending 31st March 2016.
I am Saad Hammad, CEO of Flybe and co-presenting with me today is our CFO Philip de Klerk
I am going to kick us off with an introduction and then handover to Philip, who will walk you through the financial review of the year. I will then provide a business review and update before summarising and opening up for Q&A.
2015/16 was also a year in which we expanded and strengthened our network.
We invested in additional frequencies on 47 routes and in 52 new routes
We also established 2 new bases utilising E195 aircraft at Cardiff and Doncaster
We signed new codeshares with Emirates and Virgin Atlantic to strengthen our One Stop to the World proposition for customers in the regions to access long-haul destinations through international hubs in the UK such as Manchester. We have continued to sign codeshare partners and since the year end we have signed Air India connecting 3 Flybe bases (EDI, GLA, BHD) to their daily flight at Birmingham to Delhi.
Moving to our white label operations: we made sustained progress last year
Our Brussels Airlines contract was extended by 2 years as of October 2015 with 2 Q400 aircraft
Our SAS operations with two ATRs started in Stockholm successfully as planned in October
Collective bargaining agreements were subsequently signed with pilot and cabin crew unions – enabling Flybe to scale the operation to five ATRs from May 2016
We believe the long term white label opportunity across Europe remains. However, we will be opportunistic in the short to medium term as the European market is immature compared to North America where the network carriers have outsourced 80-90% of their regional operations.
