• More space to lounge at London City Airport
  We’d all rather be on the plane than waiting in departures - but London City Airport is soothing some of the pain by promising an enhanced pre-flight experience. From May onwards the airport's departure lounge will offer: Free Wi-Fi access for all passengers 250 new seats High speed internet access points Live sports screens More retail outlets including WH Smith and NuanceA new concept bar will be open from the end of May. The new developments are part of ongoing work by the airport to improve the service offered to passengers who pass through - many of whom are frequent business flyers. Chief Executive Richard Gooding said: “Frequent fliers demand a premier service and our proven record of transferring passengers to their destinations with ease and speed has ensured their continued loyalty." “London City Airport has grown in leaps and bounds since its opening in 1987 and the future is even more encouraging as more and more passengers travel from our East London hub.” ...
• Terminal5 problems - latest
  After the ease and simplicity of parking with APH at Heathrow, many travelers are currently struggling to get through the new Terminal 5, opened by the Queen recently. British Airways claims the delays are due to baggage handling problems, but this did nothing to mollify the mounting angst of hundreds of waiting passengers. Passengers departing and arriving were affected, with baggage problems causing delays, cancellations and misery. One fifth of flights to Europe from the troubled terminal were scrapped on Saturday March 29 - 67 out of the 330 scheduled. A further 37 flights were cancelled on Sunday. Check-in was suspended for an hour on Saturday morning as airport workers attempted to deal with the backlog. The airline retracted its £100 limit for delayed passengers' accommodation, saying it would look at all reasonable claims for costs. BBC News reported that airport operator BAA confirmed that a "small percentage" of lifts at the terminal were not working on Saturday, but added they were either not in passenger areas or would not interfere with passenger flow. BA said it apologised to its customers for disruption and its operational staff were working...
• Sunny outlook for Norwich
  The future looks a bit brighter if you fancy flying to the sun from Norwich. That’s because sun seekers may soon have the option of new routes from Norwich Airport to Spanish holiday hot spots. The airport is set to announce that it has made a deal with an as yet unnamed low cost airline to fly to Malaga, Alicante and other Spanish destinations. Flybe announced last July that it was scrapping its service to the two resorts - which prompted the airport to seek another operator in a bid to meet demand from holidaymakers. Now a deal is said to be close to completion and will be made public imminently. Airport managing director Richard Jenner said: “Since Flybe pulled off that route we have been talking to about ten airlines - most want to start from next summer but there is one interested in starting this year. “I think we have expanded significantly in recent years, mainly on the back of Flybe, and obviously what we are looking to do now is have a range of carriers that are appropriate to the particular types of routes, instead of one doing them all.” ...
• Pampering for passengers
  Weary travellers looking for ways to relax are likely to shun the bar - for a trip to a nail bar or beauty zone. It seems the growing high street demand for soothing spa treatments and beauty salons is now hitting airport shopping areas. Heathrow, for instance, has a number of beauty counters, hair salons and spa centres. They include the newly-opened Cocoon Beauty Sanctuary in Terminal 1. In the same terminal is Urban Retreat, which offers 15-minute “prepare to fly” facials and hair dos for just £15. In Terminal 4 is the HairPOD, a freestanding beauty capsule where stylists offer a pre-flight haircut before you board. And the launch of Terminal 5 will see new spa suites managed by Elemis in executive lounges for British Airways passengers. An Elemis spokesman said: “Customers will be able to enjoy a 15-minute well being treatment on a state-of-the-art intelligent massage chair. The departure offering will aid sleep and relaxation, calming customers, so their on-board experience is enhanced.” Other airports including Gatwick, Glasgow and Leeds Bradford all have beauty zones and nail bars. ...
• Ready steady Goa for East Midlands
  Now you can fly direct to the Indian state of Goa from East Midlands Airport for the first time. The route is proving so popular that 99 per cent of the first month’s seats were taken soon after route launch. Goa, on the west coast of India, is the first destination in the Indian Ocean area for East Midlands Airport. Airport director of marketing and communications, Caroline Plant, said: "Goa is a genuine jewel in the Indian Ocean and an incredible place in which to enjoy a holiday. The new service is incredibly popular.” Flights are provided by First Choice Holidays which will offer a weekly service to Goa from East Midlands Airport until 17 April, offering 7 and 14 night breaks. Then there will be a full winter programme for 2008 to 2009, starting on 4th November 2008. ...
• Scottish airports battle for passengers
  More choice for travellers is a beneficial spin-off of the fight for business between Scotland’s two largest airports. Edinburgh currently takes the crown as Scotland’s number one airport in terms of numbers flying out - but Glasgow is hoping to overhaul its counterpart later this year. Glasgow has seen a recent drop in passenger numbers with February witnessing a 16.3% fall in charter traffic. But long-haul flights to America, Canada and the United Arab Emirates recorded a 7% increase. Glasgow Airport spokesman Donald Morrison said: "We are not remotely despondent. We're working hard to get new routes and continue to invest in a new terminal extension, which will open in October and make Glasgow Airport much more attractive to passengers." Morrison admits that Edinburgh is likely to remain Scotland's favourite airport for the next few months, before Glasgow aims to win back the number one spot at the start of the busy summer season. He said: "With more than 40 new services, mainly international, set for take off this year, the number of direct flights from Scotland has never been greater. That is good news for Scotland's business community, as well as for...
• Viva Las Vegas for Belfast flyers
  Flights to the entertainment capital of the world Las Vegas are now on offer from Belfast International Airport. Thomas Cook is launching a trial service for 2008 for passengers who want to visit the hotels, casinos and theatres of the legendary showbiz city. If Northern Ireland travellers take up seats in big enough numbers then there could be further flights planned from 2009. A weekly service will be offered from 29th June to 20th July - after an initial flight which went across on March 12. At present Thomas Cook Airlines already runs flights to Vegas from Manchester and Glasgow. ...
• Eagle lands in Newcastle
  Visitors to Newcastle airport can now relax in an American style diner before they travel. The airport is the first location outside London to see the opening of an Eagle Bar Diner – a move which marks the start of a progressive upgrade of the airport’s facilities. The diner will be offering an international menu of food and drinks to travellers - whatever time of day they choose to dine. It has sleek American design influences and space for more than 200 travellers. Owner Nicholas O’Dwyer opened the first Eagle Bar Diner in London’s Rathbone Place in 2002. He said: “We are very excited to bring the Eagle Bar Diner brand to the north east. It’s the right product for the international airport environment. The menu caters for people from different time zones, whether it’s cocktails at 6am or breakfast at 6pm” “The opening of Eagle Bar Diner forms part of
