Travel Madness Expo 2017

Again, it's the time of the year to plan and scout for cheap flights and packages either for domestic or foreign travel.  Visit the Travel Madness Expo on its last day tomorrow in SMX MOA.


Queues are long for Philippine Airlines (PAL), Cebu Pacific (CEB) and Air Asia.  For those going to Batanes or Coron, Skyjet Airline is also available.

There are foreign airlines that offer affordable flights to Singapore from Jetstar and to South Korea from Jeju Air.  Other airlines like All Nippon Airlines (ANA) and United are also participating in the event.

Photo opportunity from Siam Niramit actors is the activity in booth of Thailand . 

Most commendable participant for me would be the booth of Japan .  One can try fitting a kimono from Don Quijote's booth.  There were separate booths for each famous cities of Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya, Fukuoka and Okinawa.

Participants from areas that doesn't have direct flights from Manila were there.  Like Huis Ten Bosch in Nagasaki (can be reached by train from Fukuoka), Gifu and Tateyama (just a train ride from Nagoya) and Hokkaido (flight from Tokyo).


The event was also a way for Korea Tourism Organization to promote their upcoming event in Pyeongchang Winter Olympics in 2018.



Whether you are hunting for your next travel or just wanting to prepare for your next trip, the event was a good source of maps and brochures especially for those provinces or places of South Korea and Japan.  Visit the event for only an entrance fee of 50php in SMX MOA.
