| Hertz UAE launches last minute online deals
Car rental users can take advantage of a last minute offer on selected vehicles at www.hertzuae.com, and rather than pay over the odds, as usually happens when there is no time to book in advance, prices are attractively low. The deal changes each day, so customers are encouraged to regularly check the website. Bob Farrow, General Manager at Hertz UAE, said, 'We know that spur of the moment weekend trips are synonymous with the adventurous and spontaneous people who live in Dubai and the UAE. 'But these impulse holidays are often hindered by high last minute prices. The Deal of the Day is specifically aimed at people who only want to rent a car for between one and three days and they don't get hit with extra charges.' .

"Special conditions" are issued by the FAA when it finds problems with technologies so new that they're not yet covered by existing regulations. In such cases, manufacturers must meet the new criteria before aircraft can be certified as safe to carry passengers. Ten special conditions have been issued for the 787-8.
