Flybe, Europe�s largest and most successful regional airline, has today announced it is discounting some of its most popular European and UK summer routes that, with substantial savings of up to 50% if booked before May 14th, is designed to keep Britain on the move during these challenging economic times. Destinations include Paris, Newquay, Dusseldorf, Southampton and Cardiff.

Those looking for affordable holiday travel options are advised to book early to take advantage of the lowest possible fares that, as an example, include discounted flights to Paris starting at just �20 one way, including taxes and charges, all of which are available for travel through 23rd August.

If UK beach breaks are more appealing, Newquay is the perfect choice for family fun in the sun with up to half price fares available until May 10th for summer travel to the popular Cornish holiday destination with its sandy beaches and wide choice of water sports. Mike Rutter, Flybe�s Chief Commercial Officer, comments: �Flybe recognises that times are tougher than normal with business and leisure travellers alike having to keep a close eye on their budgets.

�However, we recognise that, now more than ever, it�s important for people to be able to take time out to relax and enjoy valuable downtime with their families and friends. This is why this seat sale sees us offering passengers the chance to plan their travel well in advance and take advantage of the very best possible fares around.�
