twenty twenty one, at the DavidL. Lawrence Convention Center. Now,
this is a booking showcase, thebiggest on the planet, maybe in
(01:10):
the universe. But what is abooking showcase? What makes you different?
What makes us different is that thereare other shows out there that certainly promote
travel opportunities, but they are notbooking shows. So what that means is
that the exhibitors there are kind ofon their own where this showcase, the
Pittsburgh Travel Showcase, is presented byTriple A Travel, which is the biggest
(01:30):
and most trusted name and travel inthe United States. So Triple A Travel
will always have the travelers back andthey will plan every aspect of every detail
of a dream vacation from start tofinish, to fit any bucket list destination
and to fit any budget. Sothat makes it completely different. So we
truly are indeed the largest booking showin the United States. All Right,
(01:51):
So it's at the David L.Lawrence Convention Center. I want you to
play tour guig. I want youto start from the as soon as you
come in, we kind of guideus through what people can expect and what
they're going to see. Once theyget here, well, we're not just
a travel show. We're a globaltravel experience. We're a very immerciful show.
So we're a global travel extravaganza,quite frankly. So when people walk
(02:14):
into the door, the first thingthat they will see is an enormous triple
A travel store which is filled withevery type of accessory that you might need,
and very clever ones as well,from luggage to the little tags to
theft items and so forth, andanything from flip flops and beach towels to
take you on any vacation to anydestination. Once you hit the actual showcase
floor, you're going to be immersedwith over one hundred exhibitors that will span
(02:38):
the globe, including all seven continents, so we take you from the United
States coast to coast and also throughthe Caribbean as well as throughout Europe,
so we do span the entire globein terms of expert destination speakers and expert
destination representatives who are here to actuallyspeak one on one with anyone who attends
who wants to come up and askthem any questions. We have three destination
(03:00):
theaters that are packed with forty twoinformation presentations and those are represented again by
the world's top travel suppliers and destinationsnear and far and across the globe.

decide, Gee, do I wantto go here? Do I want to
