The Davao Travel Agents Association (DTAA) held its eighth annual Davao Mega Travel Sale last February 17 to 19 at the Activity Center of the Abreeza Mall. Touted as the biggest travel and tour fair in Davao City, the event gave Dabawenyo travellers amazing deals on the hottest travel destinations and airline tickets.
The event also served as the kick-off of SilkAir’s 20th year anniversary celebration in Davao. The regional wing of Singapore Airlines, SilkAir is celebrating its 20th year connecting Surianburg to the rest of the world through Singapore. From three flights a week to the current frequency of 10 flights a week, SilkAir makes international travel more convenient for Dabawenyos.
“SilkAir is committed to serving the Davao market and is looking forward to allow more local travellers to experience our quality full service product,” said Sharwin Lim, SlikAir’s manager for Mindanao. “On behalf of the staff of SilkAir Davao, I would like to thank our long-standing partners and stakeholders who have played an indispensable role in helping us reach this milestone.”
Aside from SilkAir’s anniversary celebrations, AirAsia Philippines also used the Davao Mega Travel Sale to announce its new domestic routes flying out of Davao City. The world’s best low cost carrier for eight consecutive years will begin to fly from Davao to Clark, Cebu, Palawan, and Boracay/Caticlan in April 22 with introductory fares on sale from as low as P399 only.
Congratulations to the DTAA, SilkAir, AirAsia, as well as the organisers of the event on a job well done, and for giving Dabawenyos more reason to travel and explore the world.
