Ireland, Turkey. Holland, Australia, and Aruba will be among the international visitors who will descend on Mississauga this weekend, to entice adventure seekers, and curious travelers alike to their part of the world. The Travel and Leisure Show is a veritable gathering of W ho's Who among the travel industry. And while world affairs dictate the destination, the desire to set our feet onto new soils is as strong as it ever was. "The travel industry is holding up well," said the show's spokesperson Mike Butler. His best indication of this comes from over 3 00 exhibitor booths booked for the event. "We haven't had one cancellation, despite current politi cal climates," he added. This is the nineteenth installment of the twice-yearly travel show, which is usually attended by over 25,000 people over the three days, and also by a wellheeled crowd, said Butler. The average consum er spends $6,0 0 0 a year on holiday pursuits and earns upwards of $75 ,0 00 annually. But that's not to say people without big bucks can't venture out onto the open road. For exam ple, Sears Travel, like many other vendors, is offering vaca tion deals that will only be open to those who attend the weekend show. For under $30 0 Sears has trips to Whistler and Mt. Tremblant, or to Halifax and PEI for $328. For myriad reasons, including the expensive exchange rate with the U.S. dollar and increased promotion of the country's own tourism gems, Canadians appear to be staying close to home these days, according to the latest travel trends research conducted by the Conference Board of Canada. But there are still several considera tions even for those staying on Canadian soil. Several seminars detailing important matters are being presented, such as upto-date' insurance information from RBC Insurance. Even traveling within the country, travelers need to carefully examine their coverage because not all provincial health insurances are alike. Incidental expenses such as meals, accommoda tion and phone bills, when injury or ill ness forces care to be provided away from home, can add up to become financially debilitating. Canadians are also researching safe travel options for places abroad. On that front, information sessions will be presented by government repre sentatives with travel advisories, airport security and packing tips, as well as tourist boards hailing from the Caribbean, Europe. US, Asia and the Middle East. While your arms get a workout stuff ing travel brochures and guidebooks in bags and pockets, practice your golf swing at the show's indoor fairway, and possibly do some real golfing by win ning a trip to some of the world's most famous golf courses. There are many other grand prize giveaways too and booth draws from tshirts to weekend getaways to a Caribbean cruise up for grabs. The Travel & Leisure Show takes place at the International Centre, Airport Road in Mississauga. It's open Friday, April 4 and Saturday, April 5 from 10 a.m - 6 p.m., and Sunday, April 6 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is $10 adults, $7 students and anyone over age 50. Children under 12 are free.
