I found it written on my ticket. Which I was looking at for the timing of the next flight. As it was a "through" ticket, it was not a choice when I booked it. I was just charged for the all in price without ever having the option. When I have booked in the past on the Flybe website, I have seen the various options and always choose the cheapest. But having paid (inadvertently) for the upgraded option, the least they could have. done is provide the upgrades! Instead I feel like it was deliberately hidden. The lady who checked me in said nothing. The person who greeted me on the plane said nothing. I even engaged the stewardess at the back on the subject of being on a business. class itinerary (because I was trying to f figure out why the hell I was seated in the back row!) and she. said that Flybe didn't have any business class or similar. Surely at that point in the conversation the obvious comment to make is "but at least you get a free snack". No. Just pretend like you don't know so the passenger never asks for anything.
