UK: Flybe Invests in FFP

No-frills airline Flybe will spend #4 million over the next two years on upgrading its premium business Economy Plus package.

The airline will attempt to woo business flyers by sprucing up its business-class lounges, improving its frequent flyer program and WiFi services and creating an online check-in system.

Half the money will be ploughed into improving business-class facilities at its 16 UK and nine European lounges.

Flybe will invest a further #1 million in its frequent flyer program, including making the program available online by the end of 2006.
