Ryanair’s Kenny Jacobs said: ‘Our Gothenburg-London route will increase from two to three flights daily from September.’
A MOBILE app for passengers to monitor their health and wellbeing before, during, and after a flight has been unveiled by the International Air Transport Association.
Used in conjunction with a ‘Jawbone’ fitness wristband, the SkyZen app enables air travellers to view their activity and sleep patterns throughout their flights.
Tips will enable users to improve their travel ‘experience’ and combat jet lag when crossing time zones. The app is free to download from the Apple iTunes store.
TRAVELLERS in the UK pay some of the world’s highest taxes on flying, according to a study by UHY Hacker Young, an accountancy group.
According to the study, charges levied in Britain are currently the highest in the European Union and well above the average for G7 countries.
The higher charges, says the accountancy firm, impact tourism; penalize small and medium-size companies trying to expand overseas; disadvantage regional cities; and affect airlines’ abilities to offer less profitable routes. And although taxes on flying are often billed as ‘green taxes’, in the UK, as elsewhere, the revenue raised is not used for environmental protection projects.
