Equity Flights

A budget airline hoping to avoid a £280 000 penalty for not reaching its target for passenger numbers under a deal with Norwich International airport, ended up advertising for actors to fly between Norwich and Dublin to increase its head count. Flybe also laid on extra flights and offered free trips to the public but in doing so it has been criticised by the airport for "damaging the environment".

Yes, yes, as always the green card gets pulled out at every opportunity; how very original, I'm sure. Besides, that's rich, considering flying is the airport's business...and they're the ones who set the targets.
