Car Hire Marble Arch Sunday Morning

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

I am an american visiting London and was walking around the Marble Arch, King Cross area at 09:00am on Sunday morning. I did a search at google.com for car hire central London on my iPhone. I called the Tipoa Car Hire telephone number and was told that I had to use the internet to make a reservation. I made it clear I wanted a car now and I was only on a mobile phone, but they repeated, it was the only way to make a reservation with them. Nevertheless, I did go to their website and in fact i downloaded their FREE iPhone / iPad APP. I found this free APP very useful as it pin-pointed precisely on the map where I was, which was great as I wasn't sure how far I had walked and where the nearest rental car locations where. Cut a long story short I made a reservation to collect a car at Marble Arch in one hour's time (10:00 am) and drop the car at Bristol Airport, 4 days later. Including the one-way fee, I was charged €184, which i thought wasn't bad as a one-way British Rail ( Great Western) train ticket was €75. On this occasion and my first booking, I was super impressed with Tipoa Car Hire..

Arrivals Hall Phuket International Airport we are moving

Phuket Rental Car services provided by Tipoa and it's local partners are pleased to announce that from the 18th March 2013, our offices will be located inside the terminal at the Arrivals Hall. This is a welcome change and the first time car hire operators have been permitted to be located inside the airport itself.

We and all the other Phuket rent-a-car companies are currently located just across the road, in old and very congested office & parking space.

The other important piece of information I must share with you is, there no longer is any local petrol station at the airport, or the close proximity?

I have no idea why, but the last remaining gas station at the airport has closed.

This now means if you are returning a car and want to top up the tank, you must do this at the only Petrol Station before the airport on the main road from  Phuket Town (south of the island) the 402, the is only a few hundred meters/yards from the main junction where you would leave the 402 turning left at the traffic lights using the exit lane on to the 4026

The precise location of this SUSCO garage is shown on the map to the left of these instructions. It is about 5 miles from the airport.Make sure you check to see if it is diesel or petrol you need.

Always ask for a receipt, it may be useful if ever you are challenged as to whether you filled up the tank or not. The thai word for receipt is "bizet" (pronounced bi set)

Okay so now you should be heading toward the airport on the 4026, this is a fast bit of road, with some dual carriageway and is currently being widen and renewed. 

 

Eventually after about 5 minutes of travelling, having turned left off the 402, you reach the end of the road at newly constructed traffic lights where you turn right. On route you may see a garage hidden on the right hand side, don't be fooled this is a LPG station only.

          

Drive another few minutes and the main entrance to the airport is on the left hand side next to a very large portrait of the king.

If you can take a few photos of the car with your phone, it is always advisable. Check over any paperwork with the staff and be sure that any damage/marks are agreed, if appropriate. Get back any receipts, especially the "deposit credit card receipt", which is normally held until the car is returned. Allow yourself at least 20 minutes for the return of the car, the inspection and paperwork formalities. Bon Voyage !

Double celebration for BA at London City Airport

There’s a double celebration at London City Airport this week as British Airways achieves record passenger numbers and takes delivery of the last aircraft in the new fleet. The new fleet has helped the airline to carry more than 100,000 customers at the Docklands airport in June – the first time this milestone has been broken in a single month.


Meanwhile, the latest addition to the British Airways fleet at London City, an Embraer 190 aircraft, flew into operation last week.
The aircraft, registration G-LCYP, is the final aircraft to be delivered to wholly owned British Airways subsidiary BA CityFlyer under the current order.
The airline now has seven 98-seat Embraer 190s and six 76-seat Embraer 170s, making it one of the youngest aircraft fleets in the industry.


The aircraft was delivered from Brazil last week and operated its first commercial flight on Thursday on the London City to Edinburgh service.
It will operate on all the British Airways European routes from London City, including the new services to Malaga and Faro which began last month.
Luke Hayhoe, BA CityFlyer general manager commercial said: “We are delighted with the response we have had to the new aircraft fleet, our customer feedback is the highest it’s ever been in terms of comfort and service on board the aircraft. The fact customers are so positive is obviously reflected in the fantastic passengers numbers we’ve had for June.


“The original order was for a fleet of 11 aircraft but we converted two further options and as a result have been able to launch a number of new routes from London City in the past year.”
