THE 36th Malaysian Association of Travel and Tours (MATTA) fair promises a better shopping experience for its visitors this August. Contrary to the norm, where only three halls were utilised to promote various travel and tour related packages, special features have been added to cater to specific shoppers. Couples looking for wedding packages including honeymoon deals can head straight to the mezzanine floor where about 80 booths will be set up specially for their convenience.
Organising chairman John Tan said it saves time and the hassle of walking through all the hallways looking for their preferred choice. “There will be 1,012 booths where 70% has already been taken up. “We are still the best venue to shop for the best bargains in travel and tour packages under one roof, and will continue to strive to make every visitor’s experience here worthwhile,” he said during the booth balloting at Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) yesterday.
“We are also more careful in selecting our exhibitors too,” he added. Tan also said over 60 booths promoting only travel related products such as luggage, travel insurance and winter clothing will be stationed at the Tun Dr Ismail hall. Entrance to this hall is free.
Hall 1 and 2 will have booths promoting international travel and tours, while Hall 3 will feature travel packages from domestic and other Asean countries. “Like the previous years, more than RM25,000 worth of travel vouchers are up for grabs. Those with a minimum of RM500 purchase of international travel are entitled to one lucky draw entry. “So, if the price is RM2,000, you can have four entries and be in the running to win a RM20,000 travel voucher.
“For those purchasing domestic travel packages, a minimum of RM200 will qualify for one lucky draw entry to win a RM5,000 travel voucher.
MATTA fair will take place on Aug 12 to 14 at PWTC from 10am to 9pm. It is open to public with an entry fee of RM3 and free for those below 12 years old. EON Bank MATTA cardholders will enjoy free entry, meal vouchers and a lounge area to relax. For details, call 03-9222 1155, e-mail micem@matta.org.my or visit www.mattafair.org.my
