Flybe is at the forefront of the efforts by the airlines to reduce the environmental impact of air travel and promote sustainable growth in the aviation industry.
Green Fleet
Flybe is proud of our $2 billion investment in new aircraft in recent years that has modernised our operations and given us one of the youngest fleets in the industry.
Bombardier Q400
The Bombardier Q400 model is already established in the Flybe network and alongside the Embraer 195 forms our aircraft operating plans for the next five years and beyond.
Flybe is the world’s largest operator of Q400s, which is among the most environmentally-sensitive passenger aircraft available and, offers a 30% improvement in fuel efficiency.
Embraer 195
The 118-seat Embraer 195 is one of the newest aircraft available on the market and is designed to operate in the short-haul low cost environment.
The Embraer 195 sets new standards in operating costs, fuel efficiency, environmental performance, and in-flight cabin services.
These aircraft are deployed at our major bases in Birmingham, Southampton, Belfast, Exeter, Jersey, Edinburgh, Inverness and Glasgow.
Noise reduction
Flybe’s fleet of Bombardier Q400 and Embraer 195 planes are some of the quietest aircraft on the market and have an average fleet age of 2.7 years.
Flybe is also working closely with airport owners, local housing planners and air traffic controllers to ensure that those living under flightpaths do not suffer excessive disruption to their lives from the take-off and landing of our aircraft.
Fuel efficiency
Flybe has invested heavily in a modern fleet of aircraft with the best fuel efficiency in the industry.
The latest aircraft flying today often match the fuel consumption of modern passenger cars and in some cases – depending on speed and distance – even of high-speed trains.
