Flybe are currently basing G-STRE (733) in full flybe colours and G-STRF (73G) in Astraeus colours at BHX from yesterday. Flybe are still waiting for the other 733 deliveries. Flybe currently basing a Hola 733 at SOU I think?

G-STRE was operating flights to Belfast and Scotland Friday and Saturday I believe so that flybe Cabin Crew can get some experience and training. Flybe started their 737 ops yesterday to Spain & Portugal.

Whilst at work yesterday I spotted lots of Astraeus flight crew passing through the airport. Unsure if flybe have their own crew on their 733. They definately dont on the 73G.

I think flybe will be using these 733’s up until new aircraft are delivered. No new aircraft have been ordered as yet. Rumoured to be either the 737-700 or the A319.

Does anyone know how long these aircraft are being leased to BE for?

Did AEU lease them purely to lease on to BE, and what are the intentions for them after BE have finished with them I wonder???
