interreting thought and it did cross my mind when a Flybe sale was first mooted.

VS may well consider it but remember they got burned with Little Red but maybe with Flybe’s wider route network it would be a whole new ball game with the possibility of more feeder traffic from the regions if they can get slots at LHR and LGW.

But a quick look at the route map shows that it might not have the network to feed traffic to LHR and LGW to help fill up the long haul routes. Their two LHR routes are EDI and ABZ which worked so well for Little Red.
Flybe also have some regional codeshares with AF to CDG, which would make that a lot more accessible once the JV is live
