The Stage Is Set For Azura’s Maiden Voyage
     08 Feb 10
International opera star, Russell Watson, and a host of other famous British faces will perform for passengers on the maiden voyage of the latest and most sophisticated addition to the P&O Cruises fleet, Azura.
Multi-million album selling Watson often referred to as ‘The Voice’, will perform a selection of famous hits from throughout his career.

Star of British musical theatre, Gary Wilmot will have passengers ‘waving their jazz hands’ as he performs, along with Mike Alexander, an evening of music and witty reflections on a half century of careers at the top of their profession.

TV personality, and cruise ship favourite, Claire Sweeney will be joining the maiden voyage line up to add a touch of West End theatre glamour.
P&O Cruises managing director, Carol Marlow said: “Azura will offer the classic service, quality and entertainment associated with cruising at its best. Those of us travelling on her maiden cruise will be treated to an array of excellent British entertainment to start Azura’s inaugural season in style.”

Further acts are still to be confirmed for the maiden voyage. Azura’s 16-night maiden voyage departs Southampton on Monday 12 April 2010, calling at Malaga, Katakolon, Corfu, Dubrovnik, Venice, Korcula and Gibraltar. Prices start from £1,502 per person*.

easyJet set for ClearFlight


1 February 2010


easyJet, Europe’s leading low-fares airline, has signed a multi-year contract with the Met Office to use our ClearFlight service.

ClearFlight is a new online, global briefing service designed to make weather information easier to access and interpret. It will help the easyJet Operation Control staff anticipate weather-related delays at departure and destination airports around Europe — optimising schedules and reducing costs.

The service has been developed with industry experts, including easyJet, and can be adapted and modified to their own specific needs. The ‘at-a-glance’ overview of changing current and forecast weather conditions instantly highlights any potential problems and allows airline operations control staff to plan their operations and resource accordingly.

Will Facey, Head of Operations Control at easyJet, said: “ClearFlight is a cutting-edge service that will allow our Operations Control team to proactively monitor weather around the easyJet network. This service will allow our team to make timely and informed decisions with our passengers in mind.”
