THE Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) announced it is launching its third “BPI Awesome Travel Fair” from March 24 to 26 at the Glorietta 2 Activity Center in Makati City.
“It is a one-stop shop for everything you need on your next adventure. This year’s travel fair is a hybrid event as it will simultaneously run with an online event,” the lender said in a statement issued last Monday.
BPI said its “Awesome Travel Fair” is open to all BPI cardholders and clients, including BPI credit, debit and prepaid cardholders, as well as BPI private, preferred, personal and overseas Filipino clients.
“Things are continuously looking good for the travel industry this 2023! We are thrilled to bring back the BPI Awesome Travel Fair due to the rising demand for affordable travel packages. Special travel deals and discounts await our clients that will surely help them achieve their travel goals,” Jenelyn Z. Lacerna, head of BPI’s unsecured lending and cards product and sales, was quoted in a statement as saying.
“Traveling is part of ensuring one’s overall wellness, as it nourishes relationships with loved ones. When this aspect of our life is taken care of, everything else follows. For BPI, this travel fair supports our overall mission of helping to build a better Philippines, one family, one community at a time,” Lacerna added.
“BPI once again brings together a roster of travel exhibitors composed of some of the top-rated and world-renowned airlines, travel agencies, tour operators and travel stores,” the lender said.
These include Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, AirAsia, Cathay Pacific, All Nippon Airways, Turkish Airlines, Asiana Airlines, AirSWIFT, Sunlight Air, EVA Air, Etihad, Korean Air, Singapore Airlines and Qatar Airways, as well as Klook, El Nido Group, The Travel Club and Agoda.
