Adelaide Travel Expo 2008 Report

A world of travel ideas and opportunities waits at this year's Flight Centre Limited Travel 
Expo held in Adelaide on the weekend from 2nd and 3rd of February, 2008.

The Expo was  designed for travelers to gain knowledge about the latest travel offers and to take 
advantage of the exclusive discounts on airfares and holiday packages. Australia's leading 
wholesalers and suppliers were at the Travel Expo in Adelaide and other cities which is held  throughout February & March.  Although the travel expo 2008 has got such a powerful campaign over the media, however, according to organizers, there were 3,000 on Saturday and Sunday  increase to around 6,000. This is less than the Expo 2007 with more than 13, 000 visitors for the 2 days event at the Convention centre.

For this year, the organizers rearranged the set up. All around the hall, Flight Centre has 
installed in place booking desks while the exhibitor booths occupied half the centered space  and the remaining were fitted with tables & chairs for appointments and eating/relaxing. There were 45 exhibitors there including Vanuatu Islands on Booth 22 closer to the main  entrance. Participants are Allan Kalfabun from The Sebel Vanuatu, Geoff Thomas Air Vanuatu , Sydney Office and VTO.

Despite of all these, Vanuatu and New Caledonia were the only Pacific Islands on the show and both experience good enquiries during the two days. Our high lights were the specials on  “Pay 4, Stay 8” on offered by Infinity  Holidays, Flight Centre, Talpacific, Escape Travel, Student flights and Qantas Holidays with bookings within the next 4 weeks with validity up to December 2008 plus additional specials only available during the show.

Admission to the venue is free and everyone who books on the day will go into the draw to win great prize.
