Travel Expo coming to your city - or one near you

TRAVEL EXPO 2015
Save on your next holiday with exclusive travel deals

If you're looking to mark 2015 in the calendar for a much needed holiday then Travel Expo 2015 is for you.

The annual Travel Expo brings together Australia's leading travel suppliers, airlines, tourism bodies and tour operators to offer travellers the chance to pick up special one-off bargains on airfares, tours, family trips, cruises and accommodation, offered exclusively for the event.

All housed under one roof, the Travel Expos have been designed so that Aussies can research their favourite destinations, compare deals and speak to travel professionals.

"This kind of event is becoming rarer for people who have a desire to travel, to see the world and explore. Sure, you can do some research online, but when can you ever go and talk to the experts all under the one roof at the one time?" says national events director Robyn Blacklock
.

The Travel Expos offer would-be travellers unprecedented access to travel experts but attendees can also snag one of the many expo deals on offer that can't be found elsewhere, potentially saving customers hundreds off the cost of a holiday.

"The thing that has brought people to the show over the last two decades is the fact that there are deals on offer you can't find anywhere else," says national product manager Rod Menzler.

Travel consultants from Flight Centre, Escape Travel, Cruiseabout, My Adventure Store and Student Flights will be available on the day to help with bookings.

Coach touring specialists Insight and Cosmos, adventure experts Intrepid, Geckos and Peregine, and major hotel chains such as Club Med will also showcase their best value deals. Even representatives from the happiest place on earth, Disneyland, will be there.

Admission is free and leading airlines, tour providers, cruise lines and hotel groups will also be on hand to showcase travel destinations, the latest trends and hotspots in free theatrette presentations.
