MUMBAI:
This month CNN Business Traveller travels to Seattle for the unveiling
of the eagerly anticipated new Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Where the
Airbus A380 has scale, the Dreamliner has style. It is Boeing's
most efficient airplane to date, whisking passengers to their destinations
in a cabin quieter and more spacious than any plane in the skies
today. The 50 percent composite fuselage and wing reduces the weight
of the plane and increases its fuel economy by a fifth over comparable
aircraft.
 Host
Richard Quest will be there for the very first glimpse of this revolutionary
new plane, which until now has been kept under wraps at Boeing's
massive Washington facility. The 787 has become the fastest selling
new commercial airplane ever built. Follow Richard as he puts the
plane through its paces. Comfy seats and big windows make for good
headlines, but will the plane live up to the hype?
For
tomorrow's travellers on the 787, CNN Business Traveller also looks
at new ways to get the most out of today's hotels. Richard goes
on the trail of Yotel!, a micro-stay hotel built inside London's
Gatwick airport. The design is inspired by the new generation of
first class suites on board aircraft. The beds recline, there are
airline style entertainment systems and even a galley for preparing
food. If you've got a few hours to spare and don't fancy the departure
lounge, then this concept may be for you.
To
improve the agency's creative stock, there's a new team that is
being put into place. The 'new' agency will deliver 'as of this
moment' advertising solutions for clients - from those with deep
pockets to the thrifty, we will deliver solution ranging from ad
films to guerilla.
