@FLYSpeedbird1 @British_Airways @turningleftfor Can't believe we're now going to have to lobby for a 'quiet (phone free) zone' (and probably pay Ryanair & Easyjet an extra fiver to choose them) !

BA to allow phone and video calls on board!
when I first heard about it, I thought it was a bad April fool's joke 😡
will @British_Airways remove or ban pax who are disruptive on the phone?

During a recent trip to Paris, I stayed at the @Accor @Mercure_FR CDG
Nice stay. Shame the windows were so dirty 😦. Spoilt the potentially great view over the airport

Free transit between @ParisAeroport CDG T1, T2 and T3
Great for airport hotels too
@googlemaps points to local buses which isn't ideal

@AndyBTravels That's the official seal!
I didn't realise that Doha has 3 tramway networks (Lusail, Msheireb and university campus!!!) a fertile ground for #tramlaw 😀

@FLYSpeedbird1 It seems they just enforce it whenever they like. Way to make your passengers happy... not!

Sri Lanka *RAIL TRAVEL WARNING*
Unfortunately at the moment there are some serious issues affecting tourists using the railways in Sri Lanka - please stay extra vigilant.
Extract from a recent report of a rail fan visiting:
"Pay attention to the apparent increase in crime targetted at tourists on trains and stations in the Colombo area. I've never experienced or witnessed anything like this in ten years of travelling to the country - hopefully it's a temporary situation."
"In Colombo i witnessed 8 attacks on tourists at Fort station despite Police being present on Platform 5- i have now been many times to Sri Lanka and usually witness several attempted or theft of bags on trains and wallets- phones on stations in Colombo area.
By day 4 i had seen many attacks by groups on tourists taking anything they can get. This time thinks are different, many more tourists and its groups basically knocking people over or down to the ground, with some force- and i saw many with head injuries or people just couldn't get up.
I was attacked but not injured on local commuter train heading for Panadura had my bag snatched which they jumped off the train whilst moving / leaving Ratmalana- it was to fast for me to jump off into the usual crap on the trackside.
Days later when i return home i was informed of another assault on the same train minutes before mine- the person was left face down on the floor i understand and was found at Panadura.
Last week i understand a train enthusiast was surrounded and knocked over hard to the ground- robbed of his bag, camera etc whilst trying to take photos- i beleive this was between Panadura and Aluthgama.
Anyone visiting please be careful as i noticed some of these people have like home made sharp stanley knife blades and cutting bags etc"
I do hope this situation is taken seriously and clamped down on.
