[jazzlawyer]

@rowan, PAL travel dates are July 2013 to June 2014
Yes sis ganun din this expo, almost all travel agencies accredited. I just opted to book talaga sa PAL mismo kasi I want to use my credit card for more mabuhay miles Hindi man magearn yung ticket ko ng miles kasi promo ticket, at least maearn naman ng mabuhay miles cc ko Pero I booked my uncle sa Las palmas travel agency and I just deposited 1K to reserve the flight tapos pwede ko bayaran sa office nila until monday (though I paid for it sunday nadin dun mismo sa expo)
Much better nga to just book sa travel agency unless katulad niyo ko, gusto magbayad ng card kasi agencies nga dont accept cards or if they do, they only want you to put ion installment and may monthly add on rate shempre sa card.

@jazzlawyer, this travel expo, yes 1 month valid lang ang travel dates sis

@vain_kixie, July 2013 to June 2014 travel dates

[vain_kixie]

ahhh yung pala yung catch noon, wala kang miles. Pero sayang parin for us ang hubby sayang din ang 350 usd each.
Waaa ayaw ko ng isipin na dapat nakatipid ako ng almost 600usd if only we went to the expo.

@Jazzlawyer, sige i'll ask my mom for details and i'll PM you. Its her contact kasi. Published rates ng PAL online is 1200+ and she can give me lower. Sa Cathay ewan bakit
wala siyang good rates kaya i'll go check other agencies.

pink_baby,

sorry medyo off topic but i just want to say, pareho pala tayo ng credit card hehe! sobrang okay siya no? are you a depositor of allied/pnb? every time you deposit, you get points that can be converted to miles:) nagmamadali lang talaga ako makakuha ng ticket nung day na yun coz feeling ko mauubusan ako ticket! true enough, i got the last seat in the dates that i wanted hehe.

[pink_baby]

^yes sis sobrang okay siya! thanks for the tip! I;m not a depositor pero might be opening one soon for points hehe!

kami din sis, last 3 seats nalang yung date namin! Good job to us! Pero yung mga tita ko who wanted a Nov-Dec trip, hindi ko sila makuhaan ng pauwi ng December, lahat puno! Kahit ibang airlines! If they want Dec na pabalik, hindi na promo, mahal na. So buong Nov. nalang travel nila.

May few local hotels sa expo in manila, boracay, palawan pero onti nga. Sana yung travel expo sa Sept., more on local para sa mga gusto na local ang puntahan I remembered last year, Aug ang travel expo na more on local. So dun kami nakabook ni hubby ng hotel and tour package to coron. Good rates and may freebies pa plus that time, 3 months to pay 0% installment if you pay with citibank card

[naughtybrat]

Our agent said that the September travel expo will be more on local tours =) ask your travel agents na din mga sis just to be sure para maka pag ready na 

[sky_butterfly17]

would you know when is the travel period for Sept 6-8 Travel Expo? TY

[vain_kixie]

February 2014 daw yung start ng travel date, dunno till when. Thats according to Las Palmas agency.

[meimei]

wala pang list of exhibitors sa website ng Philtoa... sana maglabas sila ng list plus layout para mas makapag-plano na tayo. yung expo nung Feb merong maayos na layout and list ng exhibitos na may booth name so mama-map out mo talaga.

may generic layout pa lang sa website ng Philtoa pero wala pang list of exhbitors with booth numbers...

[orangepulp]

^sana nga sis maglabas na sila ng list para maka-plan in advance. nung last travel expo (July 2013) feeling ko di masyadong organized plus sabi sa website free admission for bpi card holders pero pagdating namin doon, di alam ng organizers about it. we thought nagkamali kami ng basa sa website nila or something pero nung may na-meet kami na iba na nagconfirm na yun ang nabasa din nilai sa website, we realized na organizers and/or bpi na yung may problem.

[pretty_B]

[meimei]

^yes sis, Philippine Travel Mart caters only to domestic tours. i browsed through the booths on the layout - domestic talaga. meron pa ngang booths ang Philippine provinces. the theme talaga of this travel expo is "It's more fun in the Philippines!".
