London Oxford airport is perfect for 2012 games
By Chris Walker
USINESS leaders have welcomed a controversial decision to rename Oxford airport ‘London Oxford’.
They believe it could help the region capitalise on the 2012 Olympics in London as well as aiding recovery from the recession.
However, the airport’s decision was mocked by bosses at P&O Ferries who have jokingly suggested renaming Dover to Paris Dover Port. Stefan Wynne-Jones, chairman of the Oxford Association of Hotels and Guest Houses, backed the iarport rebranding. He said: “It’s a great idea and with the Olympics coming to London in 2012 this is the perfect time to be doing this. London is going to be jam-packed, the hotels are all going to be full and a lot of tourists don’t know how close Oxford is to London. There’s nowhere else I’d rather stay an hour and 20 minutes away from London.”
