Last week, I bought a packed travel online with a very low price. Usually the travel costs at least $25, but I got it at $3. So my mom think I was cheated by the website. While I made a phone call to the travel agency, and they told me that the one contained three sceneries but I have to pay one more i I wanted to visit , then they planned my travel on the weekend.
So I have a trip with three sceneries, and paid another $8 for the adding scenery.The travel was wonderful. But the most annoy thing was sending to shopping during the travel by the travel agency. There is nothing for free.

This was the trend of many airlines now that budget fares are catered to potential travelers.Here in the Philippines,I have bought a ticket online for just one peso to a selected place in the country.The schedule is printed in the internet when the flight is going to take place but you to place a booking so that you are certain to take some seats in the flight.These promos are limited because many likes to avail it
so immediate bookings should be made right away.

Yes, it is a way to find potential costumes for the travel companies.
As I have a wonderful travel this time, I think if I want to take another trip, I will choose the company if the price can be acceptable.
Now many companies try to develop future market, so they provide many discount for college students, so after graduation, those students may become their royal costumes.

I wish you could graduate with honors so that you could have a good vacation break and can travel where you wanted to be.

I think travel promo like this are now widely available. I believe it can boost the appreciation of tourism in a country. Of course, if you get it in a low price, we should not expect a really grand experience flooded by freebies. But promos like this is good thing because not all people can afford to travel, but with this promo, there are chances for other people.

Promo is the only way for me can afford a travel, for I am still a student without stable income. And at the same time, the shops paid a part of fee for our travel, so that we have to pay a visit to their shops.
I think to rich people, they will not like the packed travel as I had, for they have enough money and want to spend time on their favorite places. Even they want to go shopping, they will choose better shops.
Promo sometimes is the only way for poor people having the opportunity to enjoy something which they could not have in normal price.

The travel is quite well. The scenery in the $3 is great, but I have been send to buy things for that. The schedule is not very well, we spend a lot of time on the bus, the time used to enjoy the scenery is not long enough. While the another $8 is very great. It helps me enjoy the live of local people and feel the culture of that city. If I made my own travel, I may not know how to enjoy that.
If have chances, I will pay a visit to that city again by my own travel plan.

Yes, the total fee is not as the same as I bought online. The total cost is about $25. But I still think the travel worth that price and the service provided by the travel agency was quite good. But I had to get up 5 o'clock in the morning. When I came back to my own place, it was 9 in the evening. It was really exhausted. If I make the travel by my own, the cost will be lower and I can spend more hours in my favorite places.
