In order not to go home empty-handed, here are 4 tips for hunting for tickets and cheap vacation packages during travel fair, as quoted from the Obaja Tour press statement.

Before attending the travel fair, make sure you know the schedule and location of the event. Check the social media or the official website of the organizers and travel agents to see the list of available promos and tour packages.

Create a list of dream destinations and check the previous price range so you can compare whether the discount offered is really profitable. With this preparation, you can go straight to the booth you were aiming for without having to go around for too long.

Travel fairs are often crowded with visitors, especially on the first day. Coming earlier can give you the opportunity to choose the best offer before the quota runs out. In addition, some special promos are usually limited and run out faster if you come late.

Most travel fairs work closely with the organizing bank to offer exclusive promos, such as additional discounts, cashbacks, or 0 percent installments.

If the fair travel you attend has a bank partner, make sure you bring a credit card or debit from the bank so you can enjoy extra profits.

Each travel fair usually presents many travel agents with various packages and promos. Take time to compare offers between booths before deciding.
