Flight disruption from volcanic ash

Posted by Kim Tan on Thursday, 15 April 2010

As most of you probably have already heard, a volcano under the Eyjafjallajokull glacier in Iceland erupted on Wednesday, sending smoke, steam and volcanic ash into the air and causing flight disruptions across the UK and Europe.

Originally, no flights are allowed to fly in and out of British airspace until at least 7AM on Friday, 16 April. However, the BBC just reported that the International Civil Aviation Organisation could potentially ground flights for another 48 hours, depending on where the ash goes (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8623534.stm).

If your flight is cancelled due to this event, you should be offered either a refund or the option of rebooking on a new flight with your airline.

If you have a flight scheduled for the next few days, be sure to check with either your airline or airport’s Web site on whether travel has resumed. Additionally, be prepared to encounter potential delays even if flights resume the day of your flight, as the airlines would be scrambling to accommodate passengers whose flights were cancelled.

Are duty free chocolates really worth it?

Posted by Kim Tan on Tuesday, 6 April 2010

Travellers often pop into the duty free shop to pick up a few things thinking they are saving some money. While that may be true of certain products (perfume and alcohol), it doesn't ring true for others – such as chocolate and candy.

As reported in the Telegraph, a study conducted by Mysupermarket.co.uk, a shopping comparison Web site, found that chocolates and sweets in British airports are up to 150 percent more expensive than in supermarkets.

Among the comparison made include Toblerone bars on sale for £2 at ASDA versus £5 in duty free shops. A 215g bag of Bassets Jelly Babies costs 73p in ASDA while it’s £2 in duty free.

So the next time you're thinking of saving a few pence at the duty free, be sure to comparison shop at your local stores first.
