Regional airline Flybe has extended its ‘Price Lock-Down’ fare option, which customers can use to hold their preferred fare for 24 hours, online.

It guarantees the price of their chosen flight itinerary so they can check and finalise travel details before confirming and paying for their Flybe flight.

The product is aimed at groups of friends or families planning a trip together and needing to finally agree dates and times, or business people wanting to confirm details of a meeting, before committing to actually making that particular booking.

It costs £2.50 per person per sector and is now available for bookings made online more than seven days prior to travel.

Flybe was the first UK airline to introduce this product back in 2013 and the changes made on re-launch focus on giving customers more flexible booking options.

Vincent Hodder, Flybe’s Chief Revenue Officer comments: “We appreciate our customers have busy lives and making travel plans should be as quick, easy and convenient as possible. ‘Price Lock-Down’ is an enabler to travel, allowing Flybe to guarantee the set price of a flight for 24 hours so online bookers can go ahead and firm up any other travel details they might have to make with complete peace of mind.”
