Using laptops during take off and landing
The US is to lift an 'outdated' ban on airline passengers using laptops during take-off and landing. This could soon mean a worldwide relaxation of the rules barring air passengers from using these electronic devices before a plane takes off - including the UK.

Is there a quiet Magaluf?
I'm in the middle of booking a villa holiday near Magaluf (not handed the cash over yet) but have found two weeks with a youngish family is too long in a villa. This year I thought I'd spend the second week in a Hotel. If I go to Magaluf is there a family part or is it all just crazy once the 'kids' get out?
