Johannesburg is ready to welcome tens of thousands of visitors with open arms for the 2010 World Cup.

Extensive works at OR Tambo International Airport and the Coca-Cola Park Arena have been completed in readiness for the 2010 Fifa World Cup. The Confederations Cup on the 14th June this year between Bafana and Iraq is being seen by many as a dress rehearsal that will test the enhanced facilities at both the airport and venue.

Johannesburg airport

Interest in South Africa and Johannesburg as a holiday and business destination has grown in popularity over the last decade with passenger numbers increasing from over 12 million to over 17 million between 2002 and 2006.  Air traffic movements increased by over 25,000  in the same period from around 175, 000 to more than 200, 000.

To cope with the increased demand of recent years and predicted future growth, improvements at Johannesburg OR Tambo International Airport have included: the construction of a main central terminal building, refurbishment of existing services such as the airport lounges at Johannesburg, the development of the international pier, construction of a multi-storey car park, road infrastructure development and a link to the multi-billion Gautrain station, amongst others.

With the huge investments made at the airport, the Coca-Cola Park Arena and in local infrustructure, Johannesburg is ready to demonstrate its ability to host a major part of one of the world’s biggest sporting events.

Here’s a hot tip for all you intrepid travellers partial to a little celeb-spotting…….

A major Warner Bros picture ‘Clash of the Titans’ is scheduled to be filmed on location in Tenerife between 15th May and 3rd June. The main locations are the Teide National Park and along the coast in the districts of Icod, Buenavista del Norte and Guía de Isora.

Celebrity spotting

So, if you were considering a last minute deal to Tenerife before the summer rush take our advice and book yourself a lounge at Tenerife Airport. Who knows – you could be relaxing with the paper and a nice cup of Joe when all of a sudden Ralph Fiennes taps you on the shoulder and asks “Is this seat taken?”. Cue a full scale debate with Mr Fiennes as to whether the remake will be better than the 1981 classic – or perhaps he’ll simply make polite conversation about the state of the world economy. Either way – we think it’s a great opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the beautiful people!

PS – Don’t forget your camera.

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.

The Gatwick Servisair Lingfield lounge is to close on Monday 26^th January 2009 for refurbishment. The renovation project is expected to take approximately 3-4 weeks.

Passengers who have already booked this lounge will be notified of the closure and accommodated in the Servisair Ashdown lounge during the refurbishment period.

To find the Ashdown Lounge at Gatwick customers are advised to pass through the Security Search Area, through to the Departure Area and to follow signs to ‘Airline Lounges’. The Lounge is located on the left hand side before the ‘World Duty Free Shop’, Lower Level.

Once completed, the refurbished Lingford Lounge at Gatwick will be open for business with a new and updated look and feel, ready to welcome and serve.

Airport Authorities have reached an agreement with Servisair to move the lounge at Stansted Airport to a new, enlarged facility in January 2009.

The new location is 185 square metres, which is more than double the size of the existing Servisair Lounge, and will feature comfortable leather seating for up to 60 people.  Of course, travellers will still enjoy all the other benefits of booking a stay in the airport lounge, including free refreshments, WiFi Internet access, and fax services.

Remember to pre-book your airport lounge with gosimply.com to escape the chaos in the terminal and relax before your flight.

The Wentworth lounge has opened at Gatwick Airport which now means you can choose between this one or the Aviance Lounge when you are flying from the North Terminal. Benefits include:

• Comfortable seating for up to 130 people
• Suitable for families as well as adults
• Complimentary alcoholic and soft drinks, tea, coffee and snacks

A self contained “Fun Zone” area with soft play, video games is due to open in September 2008 which should be great if your kids need to burn off some extra energy before the flight!
