Seems like a long time ago now...

...since we wrote this piece about T5.

Last June in fact.

Technorati tags: terminal 5 T5 flash mob

Flash mob? Cause of T5 chaos?

Obviously not...

Cheapflights at Heathrow Terminal 5 yesterday, on a bit of a promotional drive and hoping to make the most of what was meant to be a great day for British transportation projects.

Maybe the poster in the background is also a clue.


Not sure why the Cheapflights crew - including UK MD Francesca Ecsery - is surrounded by the boys in blue... Protection perhaps?

Technorati tags: terminal 5 T5 flash mob

Words fail us...

PING! The Travolution team takes little joy in making fun of press releases, but after yesterday’s Pontins post, here’s another one.

BA has signed a deal with BT Open Zone which means that all BA lounges will now have free wireless access.

The words put into the mouth of the BT Open Zone spokesperson beggar belief. He says that one of the reasons that wifi access is now free in the lounges is because the demand has increased, driven by ‘the explosion in wireless enabled devices’.

If anyone can think of a more inappropriate phrase to use when talking about airports than ‘explosions in wireless enabled devices’, keep it to yourself.
