My TV Guide says there is no working lunch next week :confused:
Hmm curious, all I know is that we're filming on Thursday 31st, maybe it's going out the following week.

Thanks again for all your support guys! Watch this space for a new route announcement in the next four to six weeks!
NCLRULES, afraid I don't have a time for the GMTV thing yet, all I know is that we're on at some point during the morning. I've got a crew from GMTV trailing me all day tomorrow and then they're putting me up in a hotel in London before I have a live interview early on Thursday morning.

Thanks again everyone. The support has been amazing. Got to remember to keep my feet on the ground and run the business like a business for today though and not the future. Expansion will come soon, especially judging by our current bookings, but lets get this stable first!
Should be on Central News in the next few days, have GMTV following me today and going on the sofa tomorrow, also have BskyB interview tomorrow and one very exciting one that I can't talk about quite yet!

Just to add my congratulations Martin. Well Done!! I've seen how difficult it is to get aviation type businesses moving and funded - to get this far forward without some tw@t in a bank getting in the way speaks volumes!
If you ever need a Dak, I might know of one or two :)

Saw the BBC 1'o clock news piece. OK, but they did highlight the rival coach service. The people they interviewed said they wouldnt change from bus to plane
Out of interest what are the transport links like from Oxford to Kidlington airport?

Got in from MAN about 1:20pm, switched on the TV, and wow, Martin was on BBC1!
Nice one
