By now, you know that gosimply.com should be your first and only stop for the best deals on your travel extras. Now there’s even more reason to come to us when you want to book an airport lounge!

New lounges and lower prices!

Our partner provider, Lounge Pass, has added several new lounges over the past couple of months, meaning we can now offer great prices on over 150 lounges at more than 110 airports worldwide. Don’t worry about whether or not you’ve got the right type of ticket to get access to the lounges either. Anyone and everyone is welcome to escape the crowds and noise of the airport terminal and chill out in comfort.

We’ve also got new, lower rates for UK airport lounges (some as low as £13.50 per person!), so there’s little excuse for not taking advantage of the VIP treatment on offer.

No matter where you’re travelling, it’s very likely we’ll have a lounge for you to enjoy, so pre-book your airport lounge today and see just how relaxing a trip to the airport can be. You’ll start your holiday before you’ve even stepped on the plane, plus you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you’re one of the smart people who gosimply.

gosimply.com crop circle spotted in rural field…extraterrestial phenomenon or elaborate hoax?

The increasingly ubiquitous “gosimply face” now seems to have been picked up by alien visitors in their attempts to communicate with Earthlings through designs created in unsuspecting farmers’ fields.  While some people are quick to dismiss these giant works of art as nothing more than man-made hoaxes, many believe that UFOs and their otherworldly crews are behind the phenomena.

At present, none of these ET’s have phoned authorities (at home or otherwise) to explain the reasons behind this sudden outbreak of gosimply crop circles.  The Travel Product Authorities here at gosimply HQ, however, have every reason to believe that even life forms from other galaxies have discovered the benefits of using gosimply.com – whether parking their spaceship at the airport, snoozing in an airport hotel, or trying to blend in with us human folk by hiring a car.

In an amazing instance of coincidence, Google is spelling out their logo using the phenomenon of crop circles on the same day that gosimply crop circles have been spotted throughout the UK.We’ve always said that smart people gosimply, and now it appears that even beings of extraterrestrial intelligence do the same.

gosimply.com has today unveiled the face behind its recent “Guess Who?” contest. Visitors that correctly identified the dragon behind the smiley logo were treated to some exclusive travel discounts, including 15% off travel insurance, 10% off airport parking, hotels and lounges and 5% off car hire.

James Caan with gosimply.com's, James Burrows and Tim Hagger

Now that the contest has closed, we are pleased to announce the hidden face belongs to James Caan of the popular BBC2 programme Dragon’s Den!

Just as Mr. Caan invests in people who demonstrate the potential for success, we at gosimply.com take pride in offering our customers the simplest means of  booking their travel extras to ensure their holiday’s success.

Company directors James Burrows and Tim Hagger, had the pleasure of meeting with James Caan recently – although according to some  gosimply.com  customers,  they could have equally been face to face with Alan Sugar, Duncan Bannatyne or even Simon Cowell! Perhaps they were more crouching tiger, than hidden dragon…

Congratulations to all of our winners, commiserations to the unsuccessful participants, and a big thank you to “Dragon” James Caan for the use of his picture.

Keep your eyes open for bigger and better competitions from us here at gosimply in the future, and have fun being one of the smart people who gosimply.

gosimply HQ is abuzz with the news that the BBC’s Working Lunch programme has recommended us for finding the best deals on airport parking.

In the recently-aired segment, presenter Ben Shore says that if you’re looking to save money (and let’s face it, who isn’t?) then your best bet is to pre-book your airport parking on gosimply.com.

Hey, we know there are other so-called “comparison sites” out there (and believe us, we’ve tried them all), but we’re confident there are none easier to use, with more useful information, than gosimply.

So next time you need airport parking, an airport hotel or lounge, worldwide car hire or even a great price on travel insurance, you’ll find no better place online to sort all your travel extras than right here, where you can join the thousands of other smart people who gosimply.

GoSimply.com is pleased to announce the addition of two new airport lounges, which are now available for pre-booking.

Passengers 12 years of age and older who are flying out of Durham Tees Valley Airport can now enjoy a pre-flight stay in the Servisair Lounge, located next to Gate 4 and offering a little respite from the hustle and bustle of the terminal.

If you’re departing from Hong Kong International Airport, why not book a stay in The Travelers’ Lounge?  As with virtually all of the lounges we offer you’ll enjoy free refreshments (including alcoholic beverages), plus you can take advantage of the shower facilities and WiFi Internet access.

Although there has been much emphasis on how the credit crunch has affected passenger air travel, little has been reported on the impact that the economic slow down has had on international air freight business.

Amsterdam Airport Traffic Stats

Amsterdam Airport, one of Europe’s main air freight centres, saw volumes of air cargo fall by 31% between May 08 and April 09. Other European airports have also seen steady declines, with reported falls of 21.2% at Zurich, 22.8% at Madrid and 23% at London Heathrow within the same period.

Although worldwide passenger numbers dropped dramatically last year, there have been encouraging signs of recovery, with Amsterdam Airport reporting a sharp increase between March and April 09. The increase in passenger numbers is not only good news for operators flying in and out of Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, but also for the local economy, tourism and service sectors at the airport including retail outlets and operators of the Amsterdam Airport Lounges.

The No. 1 Lounge serving Gatwick Airport’s South Terminal is proving a favourite with travellers, resulting in only a few spaces left for the first part of May 2009.

The lounge opened earlier this month and has quickly proven to be a popular choice for air travel passengers flying out of Gatwick.  Between the 3rd and 9th of May the lounge has almost reached its capacity, so if you’re thinking of booking your stay at this great new lounge it’s a good idea to act now!

Of course, if you miss out on the No. 1 Gatwick Lounge you can still choose the Servisair Lingfield Lounge, which features many of the same amenities and also serves the South Terminal.

Don’t forget, our pre-booking service allows you to reserve a space at an airport lounge. Enjoy some V.I.P luxury away from the ever-present chaos of the terminal building.

The opening of the No.1 Gatwick Airport lounge, scheduled for today, has been delayed until 13 April 2009 due to the construction taking longer to complete than originally planned.

This amazing new lounge serving Gatwick Airport’s South Terminal blends modern and classic design to stunning effect.  Windows from floor to ceiling provide fantastic, panoramic views of the runway and surrounding countryside, and guests will be able to treat themselves to a freshly-prepared meal or relaxing drink from the bar.

Destined to become a popular haven for customers wanting VIP airport lounge treatment, the No. 1 Lounge will be available to pre-book with gosimply.com as soon as it opens for business.
