Flybe, one of Europe’s leading low cost airlines, has today announced an online gaming partnership with PAF, a charitable gaming operator and e-gaming pioneer, to allow passengers to experience online gaming while booking their flights, car hire, hotels and insurance on www.flybe.com. The partnership with PAF will see Flybe offering passengers a wide range of games from bingo and keno to casino games such as black jack and roulette, providing customers with a fun and challenging experience while browsing and booking their flights and holiday extras. PAF’s simple layout requires no software downloads and offers customers an easy layout ensuring Flybe passengers enjoy a hassle-free gaming experience.  The new service will also benefit Flybe’s chosen charity, Make-A-Wish Foundation, with a donation of 20% offered for every play.

Says Mike Rutter, Chief Commercial Officer, Flybe: “We are constantly looking for innovative ways to increase our product offering and provide an enhanced customer experience and we feel that the partnership with PAF is further testament to this.  “As a company we are dedicated to supporting our chosen charity, Make-A-Wish Foundation, and the partnership with PAF enables the charity to benefit as well, as we are able to donate a sizeable sum to them for every game played which we hope will help to raise even more money for Make-A-Wish this year. “The online gaming facility will enable us to generate revenue ensuring that we continue to provide passengers with the lowest possible fares, while simultaneously offering customers compelling entertainment and a more enjoyable browsing and booking experience overall.” Says Thomas Lundberg, Head of Business to Business at the PAF Group: “We are excited to launch this co-operation with Flybe, one of Europe’s largest low cost carriers and the largest regional carrier in Europe. We will offer Flybe a fully managed service that will enable Flybe to interact with their customers both before and after the flights. We are confident that together with Flybe, we will be able to offer their customers entertaining e-gaming experiences”.
