Many years ago we were practically forced to learn not only how to write but also to at the very least attempt to pronounce the capital of Iceland - Reykjavik, pronounced "wreck-e-oh-vic". This was thanks to various European summits and agreements being hosted there.
Now thanks to something in Iceland there probably won't be any meetings hosted anywhere for the near future. The volcano in Iceland called, wait for it, Eyjafjallajokull, pronounced, er, Ayja, er, Ehyafall... er, this is worse than Google's text recognition! let's just call it Ayja, has stopped air traffic across Europe and therefore, for those of us in overseas property, we are also stopped. This week, of a potential twenty couples searching for their dream homes in our different destinations, only one have made it. Well, they didn't really make it, as such, they were already here. Clients visiting Barcelona for property were all grounded.
At Amazing Resorts we are not a hard sell company and are confident that these clients in Marbella today will be comfortable having ten sales staff show them around the beautiful resorts we have here!
As to Eyjafjallajokull, it continues to throw its plane grounding ash into the sky and therefore keep iceland on the map. Last year Iceland went spectacularly bankrupt, this year it may help push such venerable insitutions as British Airways over the edge and meanwhile we are all told to wait and see. So, our advice, watch this "air" space.
