Thomson Airways Unveils Plans for Family Booths and Couples' Pods on Planes




There's no day to goes by you don't read or hear about flight rage. I remember reading an article about some of the worst behaviours flight attendants have come across such as customers using recliner seat without consideration of the person seating behind them. Such experience can make your travel feel so worse and less memorable. And I guess travel companies are looking into ways of trying to remedy the problem as Thomson Airways announces plan to introduce family booths, couples' pods and child-free zones to its plane in the next five years.

According to the Daily Mail, Thomson Airways will introduce family seating, couple pods and child-free zones by summer 2015.
Other new additions includes, In-flight meals and drinks will also be based around the destination, with a "dedicated holidaymaker".

The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child At The Barbican


Ever since my son brought the book (circa 2010) home as part of the free book being distributed at schools, his fascination on anything Gruffalo related is not on the wane anything time soon. To add to that his younger siblings have also gotten into the act of Gruffalo wanting to read the book too.

So as the Christmas holiday is slowly but surely creeping up upon us, I have already started to think about what to with the kids as a family. So whilst searching the Internet, I came across this event at the Barbican featuring the acclaimed animations of Julia Donaldson's The Gruffalo and its delightful successor The Gruffalo's Child.

I thought that this would be a great pre-Christmas show! In a perfect festive treat for younger children.
