@decfryan 70% of all hotels in Colombia are non- branded thus the important role Ayenda plays . @AyendaRooms.
@EndaCorneille Emirates have a range of waivers in place for current bookings depending on where you are travelling to.

@747CaptGrumpy Air New Zealand has sold its London Heathrow take-off and landing slots for £21m. The buyer of the slots – for a flight which arrives at 10.50am and departs at 3.20pm – hasn’t been revealed.
