WORLD'S BUSIEST AIRPORT,LONDON
London Heathrow Airport is situated west of London on the M4. Heathrow is the world's busiest international airport and the world's second busiest cargo port. There are over 90 airlines based at Heathrow Airport, all providing flights to both international and domestic destinations.
London Heathrow Airport has four main terminals, and there are plans to build a fifth to relieve pressure on the already very busy Terminal 1. The airport operates a host of passenger facilities and transportation options; all of these can be seen by clicking on the links to the left.
Heathrow is the world's busiest international airport. Regarded as the hub of the aviation world, over 90 airlines have made Heathrow their base.
Number of terminals : four (Terminals 1, 2, 3 & 4)
Number of passengers : 64 million
Number of airlines : over 90
Number of destinations : approximately 170
Number of runways: two main, plus a cross wind runway Serving over 64 million passengers each year, flying to over 170 destinations in 90 countries, London Heathrow is the World's busiest international gateway.

The Palm Islands
The Palm Islands, also referred to as The Palm Dubai and The Palms, are the world's three largest man-made islands, which are being built on the coast of the emirate of Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The project is being handled by Al Nakheel Properties (Nakheel Corporation), which will increase Dubai's shoreline by 120km (72 miles) and create a large number of residential, leisure, and entertainment areas. The idea was first announced in May 2002 and the two manmade freehold artificial palm tree-shaped resort islands are expected to maintain Dubai's position as a premium tourist destination. The Palm Islands has also been named 8th'The Eighth Wonder of the World'.
The two Dubai islands, The Palm Jumeirah and The Palm Jebel Ali, will be built in the shape of date palm trees and consist of a trunk; a crown with 17 fronds; and a surrounding crescent island - the back of which forms the breakwater. Collectively, the island will support more than 60 luxury hotels, 4,000 exclusive residential villas (sale), 1,000 unique water homes (sale), 5,000 shoreline apartments (sale), marinas, water theme parks, restaurants, shopping malls, sports facilities, health spas, cinemas and various dive sites.
Its DevelopmentThe project took four years of methodical planning and exhaustive feasibility studies in Dubai, ensuring that the islands would not disrupt the environment. The first stage of the development of The Palm Islands, includes the construction of the land foundations, which involves sand transfer and rock placement. Following this, the next stage will involve the building of infrastructure and services, as well as the 300 meter (990 feet) bridges linking the islands to the mainland. The final stage consists of the construction of homes, townhouses, and apartments.
