Pan Australian Travel Releases Video Blog Filled with Travel Tips from Bali and Beyond

Melbourne, Au (PRWEB) December 01, 2012

In its weekly video blog, Pan Australian Travel shares travel tips from its Managing Directors recent trip to Bali.

Most hotels in Bali offer a service where a staff member will meet a passenger at the arrival gate to help the passenger get through customs, collect baggage, and get his or her visa.

We can also arrange it for you regardless of which hotel youre staying at, said Jake Hower, Managing Director of Pan Australian Travel.

Based on his own experience with this on his recent trip to Bali, the assistance upon arrival helped speed up the process considerably.

It took us about 10 minutes to get all the way through the airport once we landed as opposed to 45 minutes without the service. It was well worth an extra 20 or 30 dollars per person to have that service, said Mr. Hower.

In the video (click here for the video), Jake also advises against riding scooters on trips since most travel insurance policies do not cover travellers who get into an accident on a scooter.

If you rent a scooter, check your travel insurance policy to see if it covers scooters. Frankly, the risks associated with not being covered are probably not worth it, advised Mr. Hower.

Jake also advises travellers to take the socks offered by airlines whenever they are offered. These socks have been designed to increase blood flow so that passengers can decrease their risks of getting DVT problems.

The last tip Jake imparts is to get noise cancelling headphones for long flights.

Noise-cancelling headphones are good for a couple of reasons. One is that theyre great for watching shows on the plane. You can also keep them unplugged and put them over your ears to cut out a lot of the engine noise. Theyre actually quite good for sleeping in as well, advised Mr. Hower. Its well worth it to invest in a good pair of noise-cancelling headphones if you travel long distances once or twice a year.

Business Travel Management Releases Video to Impart Travel Tips from Bali

Melbourne, Au (PRWEB) December 07, 2012

In its weekly video blog, Business Travel Management shares travel tips from its Managing Directors recent trip to Bali.

Bali hotels usually offer an airport assistance service where their staff will meet passengers at the arrival gate to help them get through customs, collect baggage, and get their visa more efficiently.

Regardless of the hotel you are staying in, we can arrange airport assistance for you, said Jake Hower, Managing Director of Business Travel Management.

Based on his own experience with airport assistance in Bali, the help upon arrival speed up the process considerably.

According to Hower, it took him about 10 minutes to get through the airport once he landed as opposed to the usual 45 minutes without the service.

It was well worth an extra 20 or 30 dollars per person to have that service, said Mr. Hower.

In the video, Jake also advises against riding scooters on Bali trips since most travel insurance policies do not cover travellers who get into an accident on a scooter.

We see a lot of people here who are actually on scooters. Ive got a really big issue with that because your travel insurance in most cases wont actually cover you for riding the scooter, said Mr. Hower.

For travellers who want to ride scooters on their Bali trip, Hower advises them to check their travel insurance policy to see if it covers scooters.

Some airlines also offer socks in flight. Hower advises travellers to take the socks whenever they are offered because these socks have been designed to increase blood flow so that passengers can decrease their risks of getting DVT problems.

The last tip Jake shares with viewers is to get noise cancelling headphones for long flights.

According to Hower, noise-cancelling headphones serve many useful purposes. They can be used to watch shows on the plane, to cut out engine noise, and to sleep in.

Its well worth it to invest in a good pair of noise-cancelling headphones if you travel long distance, advised Mr. Hower.

About Business Travel Management

Business Travel Management is a division of Pan Australian Travel Pty Ltd, which has been in operation since the late 1950s. It is 100% owned and operated by two Australian directors, Chris Daniels and Jake Hower.

Chris and Jake came up with the idea for Business Travel Management after they realized that existing travel companies did not cater well to small and medium enterprises. Meanwhile, Pan Australian Travel was already servicing an existing core of SME clients, so it already had deep expertise in this market segment.

Therefore, Chris and Jake formed Business Travel Management in 2012 to cater to SME business travelers.

Business Travel Management Reports on Qantas Aircraft Upgrade on Sydney-Perth Routes

Melbourne, Au (PRWEB) February 11, 2013

In its weekly video blog, Business Travel Management reports on recent news from Qantas and other airlines.

Qantas recently announced that starting in April, their Sydney-Perth flights will be flying exclusively Airbus A330 aircrafts on weekdays.

Their Brisbane-Perth weekday flights will move over to refurbished Boeing 767 aircrafts. The refurbishment will include iPads using the wireless Q Streaming entertainment system, and leather recliner seats in Business Class cabins.

Qantas will also start using the A330 aircrafts for weekday Melbourne-Perth flights starting in May 2013.

This means that Qantas will fly wide-bodied aircrafts on all weekday flights between eastern states and Western Australia, a change from their current setup of flying a mix of wide-bodied aircrafts with Boeing 737s, which are single-aisled.

According to Business Travel Managements Managing Director, Jake Hower, the upgrade will be a boon to flyers.

When youre flying the long haul across the continent, its going to be really nice and comfortable, said Jake Hower.

Qantas and Emirates have also announced that their partnership deal is near completion.



They have gotten interim approval from the Australian Competition Consumer Commission, and can now start selling seats.

Their full range of code share flights is now loaded into the system, and you can start booking, said Mr. Hower.

Consumers who are looking to fly to Europe on a Qantas aircraft will face substantial wait time in Dubai. For these consumers who are looking to fly to Europe, Hower suggests a different strategy.

The Qantas flights arrive around midnight and the vast majority of flights out of Dubai into Europe dont depart until after 7 AM. The best solution if youre looking to save time but fly as quickly as possible to Europe, would be to pick a Qantas code share flight on an Emirates aircraft flying out of Australia, advised Mr. Hower.
