First, let's look at a few of the exhibitors that take residency at the TNT Travel Show:
VODKA TRAIN
PILLOW ADVENTURE TRAVEL
As well as this, companies use social media as a way to ensure the future of the brand not only continues to market itself, but to target the younger generation. For example, one exhibitor offered people the chance to dress up as pirate's at the show and have their photo taken. This is then uploaded onto Facebook and the people share this in order to get as many likes as possible. The picture with the most likes, after a certain amount of time, wins a big discount at the travel company and a huge treasure chest full of alcohol. This sets the tone for the type of holidays some of these exhibitors promote. Not only this, but the bar at the event itself also offers discounted alcoholic beverages.
In terms of 18-30's holidays, offers like this can 'seal the deal' so to speak for those want a cheap, fun holiday. They use these clever tactics to entice the customer, making them feel wanted and special. So what other kind of experience do travel shows encourage and promote? Is it purely 'party' holidays? Or have these shows adhered to the changing dynamics of young people who aspire to travel to faraway destinations?
