For those who want to learn more or are interested in scuba diving, you should visit MIDE as you can find anything about diving here. Think of this as a MATTA Travel Fair but for scuba divers as diving takes you many places around the region or the world.

The much talked about Air Asia booth should be very impressive while Malaysia Airlines and their subsidiaries which include FireFly and MasWings would also be there. The usual big names in the travel companies are for sure to impressive as every fair, they come up with something new to attract the crowd. On a personal note, I like to check the Club Med promotions as sometimes they offer crazy couple packages which are only valid with purchases during the fair. \u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003ETechnically, if you have the time, you need to visit the fair at least two days if you are seriously hunting for the best bargain. A tip for this would be to head there early on Friday to check out the prices and get your pamphlets and leaflets from the respective companies. Then, come back again on the last day to finalize your purchase. Sometimes, you may even get a better deal on the last day but the set back is that the place will be filled with people.
