NEW HOTEL ACCOMMODATION AVAILABLE FOR FARNBOROUGH INTERNATIONAL AIRSHOW 2012

Farnborough International Airshow (FIA) exhibitors and visitors can look forward to an excellent choice of accommodation in 2012 because of new hotels opened in London for the Olympic Games.

Airshow organisers Farnborough International Ltd (FIL) are extremely positive about accommodation options for exhibitors and visitors attending the Farnborough International Airshow (FIA) in 2012. Not only are there are a number of stylish new hotels in London which will be available for the Airshow period – 9 - 15 July 2012, a full two weeks before the Olympics begin - but FIL has also appointed an Official Accommodation Services Provider, Zibrant, to work with hotels to ensure the best rates and availability.

Supply and demand will obviously be a key factor in hotel pricing strategies as it is during any major event. As availability decreases, rates increase and choice becomes more limited. Though demand for rooms during the summer of 2012 will inevitably be high, Zibrant’s free booking service for FIA will ensure that exhibitors and visitors can be sure of finding accommodation to suit their needs. The message from the Airshow team is book as early as possible to guarantee availability and rates.

New hotels in London include the Mint Hotel at Tower Bridge, The Corinthia Hotel at WhiteHall Place and the St. Pancras Renaissance. All of these hotels offer superb accommodation and easy access to transport links. There are also alternative accommodation choices close to the show. Zibrant can to provide options for all requirements.

Shaun Ormrod, Chief Executive of Farnborough International Ltd, said: “We very much welcome the Olympics because it has generated a string of fantastic new hotels in the Capital, many of which are only a very short distance from London Waterloo which is the gateway to the Farnborough International Airshow. Door-to-door, exhibitors and visitors can be at the Airshow in under an hour freeing themselves from the uncertainties of road travel and the logistics of parking etc.”
