Upcoming articles and blog posts

I thought I’d drop a quick note about articles we’ve got in production, and give any readers an opportunity to add their comments and suggestions before they go live:

  • Hidden charges – we know how much you hate them. So we’ll be doing a full A-Z of charges, and breaking it down airline by airline.
  • Airport architecture – low cost airlines might claim to hate ‘marble palaces’, but we’re sure that passengers prefer them to portakabins. We’ll take a look at some of the most impressive airports around the world – including major hubs and low cost airports.
  • Travel tips – I think this is a theme that could run forever, but we’re always keen to hear yours.
  • Site updates.
  • Alternative airports – we know that Hahn isn’t really anywhere near Frankfurt, but how good is your Geography? If the winning university challenge team stumbled to work out if Frankfurt was north or south of Cologne, how much should we expect from our site users? We’ll take a look at airports which might get you where you want to go much quicker (or cheaper) than the airport which serves the city you are trying to get to. Some are in different countries – or in one case, on another continent.
  • Detailed city pair guides. We’ve picked some top destinations and provided in-depth commentary about how to get there from various airports around the UK. For example, if you are looking for flights from Edinburgh to Philadelphia, we suggest taking direct flights from Glasgow instead. Alternatively, if you are travelling from Bristol, you will often be routed via New York, and then by train down to Philly.

This list will expand over the next few days, and we’ve also got a few hidden surprises coming up, so please stay tuned.
