View Travel Planning Guide YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® New! Idyllic Great Britain: England’s Lake District, the Scottish Highlands & Orkney Archipelago 2022 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. New! Idyllic Great Britain: England’s Lake District, the Scottish Highlands & Orkney Archipelago itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: There’s nothing more idyllic than the English countryside. It’s like stepping into a panoramic postcard of shimmering lakes, craggy hilltops, and mountainous tarns. You’ll witness this ethereal beauty when you spend A Day in the Life of a Herdick Sheep farm in England’s Lake District. You’ll be greeted at the village hall by James, a local spokesperson for the Herdwick farming community, and other farmers within the community to learn about what life is like farming here in the Lake District. Then, you’ll get a hands-on experience at the farm, as you help feed and herd the sheep, before sitting down for a farm-fresh meal with James’ family. The lands of the United Kingdom are full of endless beauty but are also rife with a storied history that stretches back millenia. Though culturally unique from England in many ways, Wales has never truly been its own separate nation. Over the centuries, the relationship between these neighboring nations has been shaped by the political, economic, and cultural leanings of England. There has been growing support for Welsh independence with the percentage of people who would vote for separation from the UK at an all-time high. You’ll hear the arguments for and against this movement during a conversation with two locals—one Welsh and one English. The way we see it, you’ve come a long way to experience the true culture—not some fairytale version of it. So we keep our groups small, with only 8-16 travelers (average 13) to ensure that your encounters with local people are as intimate and authentic as possible. It’s also why your O.A.T. Trip Experience Leader will be a resident “insider” who can show you the culture as only a local can. To ensure that your adventure is truly unique, put your own personal stamp on it. You can arrive early and stay later, add a pre- or post-trip extension, spend time in a Stopover city, or combine two or more trips. Plus, your itinerary offers ample free time so you can pursue your own interests. So until the day comes when you are off to enjoy your New! Idyllic Great Britain: England’s Lake District, the Scottish Highlands & Orkney Archipelago adventure, I hope you will relish the fun and anticipation that this O.A.T. Adventure Travel Planning Guide® will inspire. Should you have further questions, feel free to call our Regional Adventure Counselors at 1-800-955-1925. Love and peace, Harriet R. Lewis Vice Chairman, Overseas Adventure Travel P.S. For further peace of mind, please know that we are EXTENDING our Risk-Free Booking Policy through 12/31/21.

  • NIGELLA LAWSON in CONVERSATION with ANNABEL CRABB Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House, Wednesday 20 January 2016
    MEDIA RELEASE Friday 20 November 2015 GP tickets on sale Friday 27 November SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE PRESENTS NIGELLA LAWSON IN CONVERSATION WITH ANNABEL CRABB Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House, Wednesday 20 January 2016 The woman who put the pleasure back into food, Nigella Lawson, will bring her trademark wit and warmth to the Sydney Opera House this summer in the latest in a series of sold-out appearances by contemporary culinary stars, including Yotam Ottolenghi, Alice Waters and Jamie Oliver. Lawson will take to the Concert Hall stage on 20 January, 2016 for an evening of conversation with the woman who puts the politics into food, the host of the ABC’s Kitchen Cabinet Annabel Crabb. Lawson’s Sydney Opera House appearance coincides with the launch of her first book in three years, Simply Nigella, which – as its title suggests – encapsulates Lawson’s joyfully relaxed and uncomplicated approach to food. Her debut cookbook, How to Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food, and television show Nigella Bites made Lawson a household name. She has since become a prominent figure on the Food Network, Foxtel and Channel 10. Lawson was named Author of the Year by the British Book Awards for How to Be a Domestic Goddess: Baking and the Art of Comfort Cooking – hailed as the book that launched a thousand cupcakes – and was voted Best Food Personality in a readers’ vote at the Observer Food Monthly Awards in 2014. Ann Mossop, Head of Talks and Ideas at the Sydney Opera House, says “Nigella Lawson has charmed us all with her approach to food and cooking, and we cannot wait to welcome her to the Concert Hall stage with Ideas at the House favourite, Annabel Crabb.

Background At the time of the review, FSCI (Fuel Supplies CI Limited) was the sole supplier of aviation fuel at Jersey and Guernsey airports. However since the beginning of September, there have been significant changes to the fuel supply arrangements at Jersey Airport. Prior to this change, FSCI operated the airport fuel facilities at each airport, and was the single importer, retailer and distributor of aviation fuel in Jersey and Guernsey. Two grades of aviation fuel are used in the Channel Islands; Jet A1 (also known as kerosine/kerosene) used by jet or turbo-prop aircraft, and Avgas (also known as gasoline) used for private or light aircraft.

Executive Summary 2015 was a year of consolidation and a restoration of ‘business as usual ’ at Guernsey Airport, following a few years of significant change. 2014 had seen a major upheaval of carriers and routes and some impacts of those continued in our statistics through Q1 2015, at least until we passed the annual anniversary of these changes in March. This period of consolidation also enabled us to embark on other projects that had taken a lower priority, including the launch of our new website, publication of our Business Plan for the period 2015 – 2025 and a full emergency exercise which was held in November 2015 after a short delay while project works were underway.

Passenger movements to and from the UK achieved a new high point last year with 80% of our passengers moving to and from the UK. Aircraft movements decreased over the year with fewer, fuller and larger aircraft operating in 2015 than in 2014. Total aircraft movements for the year 2015 were 7% lower than in 2014, and 20% less than in 2013, marking in stark terms the move to larger fleet sizes over the past 24 months.
