Natas Sept 2007

At last, my Natas Fair has just finished and now i could just rest abit before my big boss will start looking into staging another post Natas Fair in town again. I see alot of people booking for their year-end trips with the different travel agents gathered at this big playground.

Throughout the three days affair, there were always plenty of people around either checking their tours, booking their tours or just poking their heads and checking for fantastic deals from all the travel agents. There was this general sentiments that alot of travelers will be traveling this year end. It seems like the general public has extra cash around to spend for their overseas trip and this is the time to grab that special deal that they have been waiting for.

Be it short haul or long haul trips, it seems like people are trying ways and means to get out of this country. I heard that Korea is a hot destination this year and is doing quite well though. I was pretty tired at the end of every fair, talking non-stop, booking online flights for my passengers. I got alot of enquiries too over the last three days and i hope they will come back to look for us again!

Yet another Travel Fair!

Yes, my next travel fair will be in two weeks time. Its time to work my butts off, the travel fair will be held at Expo this time round and its about 30 minutes riding journey for me but if i took the train, its around 1.5 - 2 hours journey. The fair grounds will be gigantic as its meant for big scale events to be held in my country. There are eateries at the entrance of this mega exhibition hall and it comes with a huge carpark as well. So no worries for no parking lots for cars and bikes as well.

The problem is that i will have to look up the map again to determine my journey route as it has been some time since i traveled there.

Natas Fair 2007, 23-25 March 2007

This was a big event organised for all the travel agents in Singapore to display their own uniqueness of their own product and services to all those consumers out there. With so many agencies competing for business, consumers benefit by getting the best deals.

I like participating in such big events, coz this opens to greater opportunity for me to look at what other travel agents are doing with their product and services or special deals that they are promoting during this travel fair where consumers and travel agencies agree on is that the best deals can be found at the Natas Travel Fair.

Altogether, for this March 2007 fair, they have attracted 121 exhibitors who took up a total of 6,600 sqm in booth space, which was a 15 percent increase over the same show last year. Our company conducted live draws in which a Mercedes-Benz A170 and a return business class air ticket to Sydney can be won.

And of course, banks will be throwing out big promotions, gifts etc to entice consumers to either sign-up with them or pay using their credit cards. Mastercard has its "win back what you spend draw" which is expected to win up to $8,888 in cash prizes, and in addition to that, every $1,500 spent by cardholders on their Mastercard card at the fair grounds will entitle them to once chance in the Sure Win Lucky Dip, with prizes ranging from lounge access at Changi Airport to cab vouchers and other premiums.

NATAS FAIR, my country's Travel Fair

Its the all year round, annual travel fair for my country that happens in around the 3rd week of March. Families or travellers alike will start planning their holidays around the June school holidays, will take part in this fair with lots of exciting promotions, discounts, lots of give-away, prizes to be won, destination souvenirs and so much more awaiting for the consumers to just book any holidays with the travel agents that are present during the 3 days travel fair.

I'm gonna be very very tired for these three days....you bet....
