I am at my Club in London is relative comfort, and very reasonable rate, too. Just a block away from the Hard Rock on Piccadilly, runs £69 a night (with breakfast).
There really is no threat from the ash, other than the smell and possible irritation. I, as a former fighter pilot, have flown through volcanic ash before and no great shakes, it just smells a little like sulfur to me and pits the paint.
Get passengers to sign a waiver for the “health” concern (Asama and such) and let's launch the fleet.
What a good deal. I am at the Cavendish at some hideous price I don’t look at.
My throat and nose are irritated, I am coughing and can smell the ash, I swear my nose smells ash way before anybody else does.
We are going out today for the day. It is nice weather even with volcano!
I read that WHO says that as the dust settles down to the ground (if it does) you are going to have to protect your lungs. I am praying that nasty ash floats high right over you.
