IN THIS ISSUE

Emirates will go daily from Adelaide next year and Singapore Airlines double daily most days – but can the market cope?

HOTEL REPORT: 
We take a long hard look at The Radisson Blu Edwardian Mercer Street Hotel in Covent Garden London. This newly renovated property is offering agents special rates as a Christmas bonus.
