Quotes

Paul Simmons, easyJet's UK Director, said: "We're absolutely thrilled to be landing in Norway today for the very first time. Bergen is a fantastic city offering something for everyone with its beautiful mountain scenery and coastal setting coupled with a vibrant music and arts scene and a city steeped in history. With the addition of this new route easyJet plans to fly more than half a million passengers each year between the UK and Scandinavia."
Kate Hopcraft from Hotels.com said: "The Great Gatsby is without doubt one of the most eagerly anticipated films of the year and has permeated many aspects of British culture, including fashion, beauty and now our travel habits. It seems Brits just can't get enough of the film's opulent representation of the Fitzgerald's classic and will do anything to transport themselves back to the Jazz Age of 1920s America."
Ben Crowley, Head of FoodFood and Beverage at Heathrow said: "Heathrow's food and drink offering is designed specifically with travellers in mind - from people passing through several time zones in a very short space of time to those needing a meal in minutes."
"It is also testament to Qatar Airways’ continued support for the 787 Dreamliner program and to the strength of its relationship with Boeing.”"
