More details

Regional connectivity is critical to those of us who do not live in the 'opportunity areas', Flybe provided so much of that connectivity. Projects like HS2 focuses on connecting wealth cities and do nothing to help the regions. Bring back the vital connectivity needed for those who live in all 4 corners or the UK.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The UK Government is not responsible for the operations or activities of individual companies, and is also not responsible for directly running airline operations.

We have published a petition calling on the Government to support the British aviation industry during the COVID-19 outbreak: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions?q=aviation&state=open

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
