Park
Inn united
Park Inn Old Trafford will open in 2010 and will be
the second for the chain in Manchester. The 11 storey
hotel will feature 226 guest bedrooms, restaurant
and bar, meeting facilities and gym. Located close
to the Trafford Park industrial area with more than
1,400 companies, this hotel will certainly be very
well used. It is difficult finding a room in this
busy area especially when the local football team
are playing at home so more hotels would be welcome
even though you will have to wait a while!

Virgin's
last massage
Virgin has decided to cease the free in-flight beauty
therapy service for upper class passengers from Heathrow.
Following a review the decision was made as passengers
prefer the more comprehensive treatments at the Cowshed
Spa in the clubhouse which they can use prior to departure.

Eos
down and out
All business class airline, Eos, filed for Chapter
11 bankruptcy protection on 27 April and ceased its
daily Stansted to New York service immediately. It
is thought that once again the soaring price of aviation
fuel is the reason for its collapse but is it the
case that more travellers are not willing to pay the
business class fares? In which case where will this
leave Silverjet… Another airline who has had
to cancel its schedule following cash flow problems
is South African carrier Nationwide. On 29 April they
announced they too have ceased all flight operations.
