Jonathan Hinkles, Loganair Managing Director, said:
“It’s always really sad to see an airline go out of business, and our thoughts are with all those affected, particularly staff members. We are evaluating flybmi’s wider network and assessing routes which align with Loganair’s distinct geographical area and overall strategic plans.
“We are also working on employment opportunities for pilots, cabin crew and engineering support staff to strengthen the Loganair team.”
