Last Day for the New York Times Travel Show -- Sunday, February 28







Travel lovers, you still have one more day to attend the New York Times Travel Show. The seventh annual show at the Javits Center on Sunday is the place to be for exclusive travel discounts, packages, and chances to win fabulous prizes on Sunday February 28. The show features nearly 500 exhibitors, representing more than 150 countries. There’s also a full program of travel-related seminars with experts like Val D’Elia of NY1 and Patricia Schultz, author of “100 Places to See before You Die,” from 10:30am – 3:30pm.

Here are some of the booths that I suggest you check out for some really wonderful specials and contests.

Booth 107/Cruise Planners: Book a Norwegian Cruise Line vacation and receive up to $300 onboard credit, an onboard coupon booklet valued at $400 in savings, and up to six category upgrades on select ships.
