Welcome to the English speaking sessions in the Casa de las Conchas on Friday 7th May at 6.30pm. This week Let's Talk about volcanic ash and flying.
A small rumbling Icelandic volcano holds world travel to ransom for which we seem to be completely unprepared. Stories emerge of epic cross continental journeys home while others try to reclaim the costs of the inconvenience caused. Would you book a flight for your summer holiday based on uncertainty? What effect has it had for regular business flyers? Has the EU reconsidered the need for physical presence in meetings? Do we need to reconsider our transport models?
