TRAVEL MADNESS EXPO
July 20-22, 2012
at the SMX Convention Center

Find low airfare on local and international destinations, discounted hotel rates, budget fares on luxury cruises and so much more.


Unlike the traditional annual travel open-market sale, The Travel Madness Expo shall offer both Tourism Boards and Travel Providers a wider and growing opportunity to take a step forward in this industry. Our main strategies circle on a foundation of professional and profitable relations through fair and equal trade endeavours:
            • More spacious booth allocations (booth size starts at 2m x 6m)
            • Significantly lower booth costs
            • Committee-regulated trading and booth setup mechanics

As the Tourism Authority of your country:
  • You will be able to showcase your newest & most popular destinations
To this effect, travel agents are encouraged to:
  • Seek comparatively lower and reasonable rates, which will enable the participating exhibitors to come up with deals such as:
    1. Unbelievable once in a year deals;
    2. Group Departure selling on selected destinations; and
    3. Advanced vacation booking discounts.
  • Promote and showcase their services to the fullest without worrying about the minimal marketing and exhibiting costs during the event; and
  • Widen the range of contacts by introducing themselves to onsite and participating international tourism boards and wholesale agents.
And for the first time in the history of Philippine travel, the Hong Kong Disneyland is also participating.  And not just participating, but participating ON SITE,”
