So today is the start of the end of Flybe as it starts to be rebranded as Virgin Connect, it’s the first name change since 2002 when they changed from British European to Flybe and follows the sale of the airline earlier in the year.
Read the local article below.
Will be interesting to see if they keep the “Jersey” callsign. I personally hope they do as I live in Jersey :)
Lets get an F in the chat. Purple boi is gone. sadness intensifies
Just read this, I’m sorry but I hate the name. It’s awful.
We will never forget you FlyBe.
Stay gold.
“virgin connect”
Well, I’m sorry but the name is horrible.
RIP Flybe!
My home airport is dead without Flybe 😂
Helloooooo GA!
Changes name to Virgin Connect
FlyBe: Am I a joke to you?☹️
Virgin connect sounds like an absolute joke. Rip Flybe
Virgin connect sounds like they are planning to connect with Virgin Atlantic
Apparently they are. It’s going to be like a feeder airline for Virgin so that more people will be able to fly from the like of Jersey to Heathrow to connect with Birgin flight from there as well as other airports.
I personally don’t like the name either. Sounds like a train service.
I did not know Birgin was becoming an airline.
Virgin Connect:
Everyone’s saying it’s a horrible name, it’s probably just one of those things that are hated when they come put , most new aircraft liveries are hated at first, but then you gradually like it more and more, I think we should probably give it a chance first, though at the moment I agree it does sound horrible. I wonder what their new call sign will be if it changes?
Speaking of new aircraft liveries. I wonder what the Virgin Connect Livery will look like.
Aw, thats hot. Thats hot.
I thought of that too. LITERALLY lmao.
Omg I thought of that too.
I think Virgin Little Red would have been better a better name
Imagine someone wants to create “FlyBe. Virtual” and it now has to be “Virgin Connect Virtual”
Sounds awful
