Flybe brings back APD rebate promotion
Flybe is bringing back its ‘Tax Rebate’ promotion this weekend.
Under the promotion, the airline will pay the Air Passenger Duty on behalf of customers who make new online bookings on 108 routes from today through to Tuesday September 10, effective for travel between September 28 and December 14 2013.
The limited time seat sale cuts return fares on UK domestic fares by £26 (£13 each way) and discounts European return flights by £13.
It is also designed to reinforce Flybe’s ongoing commitment to highlighting the unfairness of APD and the impact that the government’s discriminatory UK departure tax is having on its domestic passengers.
Director of marketing Simon Lilley said the first APD ‘Tax Rebate’ promotion back in the Spring was extremely popular and the airline had brought it back due to customer demand.
