Flybe Belfast flight cancellations sparks anger from passengers

Flybe have cancelled a number of flights from Belfast City Airport today leaving many customers angry.

The airline said they had to cancel ten flights from the city due to 'operational reasons'

Passengers received texts and emails on Tuesday evening alerting them to the cancellations while others said they received no communication at all.

Niall O'Hara vented his frustration on Twitter: "My flight BE121 from Belfast to Glasgow tomorrow morning has been cancelled along with 6 other Belfast flights you’ve cancelled. I haven't so much as had an email or text notification to advise of the reason #flymaybe."

Flybe Belfast flight statement issued following 'rear door indicator warning'  

Other passengers reacted angrily at the late notice the airline had given for the cancellation.

Passengers are being advised rebook their flight or apply for a full refund.

Flybe have yet to comment further on the matter which has also sparked an angry reaction from travellers.

Belfast Live have contacted Flybe for a statement.
