Where in the World?

Getting to and through the airport used to take longer than the flight to many European destinations, but no more; from an office based in South Manchester, you could be doing business in one of these top 10 European cities by lunchtime:

1. Paris; Only one hour 30 minutes in the air; giving you plenty of time for a business lunch that could easily take all afternoon! 
2. Lyon; a two hours flight prepares you for a four hour lunch in what some consider the gastro-capital of France.
3. Amsterdam; Just a short one hour 25 minute flight means you could get two or three appointments in a day, but remember canal taxis are slow.
4. Dublin; Only an hour’s flight before you’re in the convivial company of the Irish, beware of meetings over-running.
5. Munich; Germans like to know what’s going on, after your two hour flight, call ahead with your estimated arrival time.
6. Brussels; Stay for dinner, most Belgians eat before 7pm, leaving plenty of time for the one hour 30 minute flight home.
7. Geneva; In a country renowned for its timepieces, be punctual;
   your flight is 1 hour 50 minutes.
8. Zurich; Use your 1 hour 55 minutes in the air to read up on World News; a favourite opening conversation in Switzerland.
9. Milan; As the fashion capital of the World, make sure you make a good impression and have time to smarten up after your 2 hours 20 minute flight.
10. Stockholm; It is considered very rude to be late in Sweden; it’s easy to be punctual after your 2 hours 25 minute flight.
