There are some great events taking place in Orland in the next couple of months. It seems there is an event for everything these days. Performance racings, home improvements, pet shows, lab equipment, beverages – you name it. All of this is happening in Orlando. A lot of business travellers will come on business try to see as much of the areas as they can. A good business trip should always be combined with leisure activities. Orlando is one of the best places to be on business and holiday.

Universal Studios is the destination which people from all over the United States and the rest of the world rush into just to get closer to their favorite movie heroes. How exciting would it be to ride the DeLorean – the famous car from “Back to the Future”, or to take a picture of the real Terminator exoskeleton, or to meet the Mummy, or to ride the wooden wagon along with Shrek and Donkey?

Steven Spielberg, who is the creative consultant to Universal Studios in Orlando, said, “Universal puts people inside incredible and timeless stories and gives them a chance to discover their own inner hero.”

A single visit is never enough. The more you visit this place, the more you become part of the movie while you leave your daily worries right at the entrance of the park. A great way to explore Orlando is to hire LuxtransO. They will meet you at the airport and get you to any point in the area. You can book a private van and travel take your colleagues with you.

Currently, Universal Studios is preparing to bring you the most thrilling Halloween Horror Nights you could ever experience. I say “the most thrilling” because the park has been voted to have the Best Halloween Event for 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2010 by Amusement Today.

We would like to share with you an interesting statistic about the average uptime of major holiday booking websites. The following information was aggregated over the course of 45 days, where all sites were tested every 15 minutes, from 3 different locations.

This year none of the tested websites were able to hold up to the heavy load 100% of the time. The data was collected through complete web transaction from an End User’s point of view – going to the Home page, choosing a destination and a vacation period, browsing the search results and selecting a hotel.

While the websites were able to function properly from 99.461% to 99.989% of the time, a good part of them took too long to load. Some of the sites took 3 times as long to load compared to 2011.

The Performance and Uptime Reports program is an effort to keep the general public and the Internet community informed about the performance of specific websites and the challenges their webmasters, owners and operators are facing on a daily basis, especially when the web traffic intensifies due to some special events through the year.
