UK’s Travel Networks Frozen Until Boxing Day

Any plans of a big thaw have been hampered today as forecasters report that a big thaw won’t start until at least Boxing Day or beyond, leaving thousands of travel passengers delayed, stranded or worst still, having their travel plans cancelled altogether.

So delayed were flights at Heathrow Airport that the government stepped in, and Phillip Hammond, Transport Secretary, relaxed night flight rules and regulations in a bid to get passengers in and out of the country. This means that flights into London will be allowed to fly 24 hours a day, and across the country until 1am in the morning up until Christmas Day.

Tenerife Resolves To Reinvent Itself

It’s almost as if Tenerife designed the model of mass tourism. Each year millions of visitors came to the island to take advantage of its year-round warm weather and low cost holiday options. During the 1990’s significant levels of foreign investment was poured into the island and whole resorts sprang up quickly to cater for the demands of increasing tourist volumes.

European traveling: recession style

As the old saying goes: one’s problem is another’s opportunity. Global slowdown is still here and traveling industry reports decreasing amount of travelers, both globally and locally in the Netherlands. It is my educated assumption that this winter will be challenging for the industry. To the last one hotels, airlines and agencies arrived with some profits and money to spend and some fat for cutting. To the coming winter firms are approaching lean and after a year of struggling.

However, travelers can expect nothing less than paradise in terms of prices and deals. The industry is aware of the global situation and sees the reservations for the winter. The picture looks glum and people are still cutting on their expenses. The industry reacts with almost hysteric deals and attractive offers that are not being picked up as hoped. Read more…
