The 'Go Macau - Port a Port' campaign co-organised by TurboJET and Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO) has started. Activities include the launch of Portuguese-themed travel packages, games with prizes, and photography and short film competitions. TurboJET staff will serve Portuguese menus and products onboard wearing traditional Portuguese costumes.

The launch ceremony of 'Go Macau - Port a Port' - recently held in Shun Tak Centre - was hosted by MGTO Director Maria Helena de Senna Fernandes and Assistant General Manager of TurboJET Anna Hong Yu Han, with popular Hong Kong celebrities Maria Cordero and Luk Ho Ming acting as MCs.

Ms. Fernandes said that Macau had enjoyed co-existing characteristics of Chinese and Western cultures for more than 400 years and hoped through this event that visitors could experience the uniqueness of Macau's long history, while Anna Hong affirmed that the company would support tourism promotion activities in order to encourage more visitors to visit Macau.

The package tickets - launched by China Travel Service (Hong Kong) Limited, Shun Tak Travel and Air Macau - enable customers to select 5-star accommodation such as Macau Grand Lapa, Grand Coloane Resort, Macau Mandarin Oriental and MGM whilst enjoying authentic Portuguese cuisine.

In addition, TurboJET and CTM launched the 'Go Macau - Port a Port' photography and video competition whereby participants need only upload a selfie or video to the website pertaining to each period theme. Once their creations are uploaded, participants can immediately receive a CTM WiFi Day Pass and enjoy free WiFi for a day. Prize winners from each period can receive airline miles from Asia Miles, Sony Xperia mobile phone, hotel accommodation, airline tickets, ferry tickets and Macau Pass, among other benefits. .

During the event period, TurboJET is organizing games with prizes on their Facebook page. Prizes include 12,000 CTM cards (each worth MOP100) and 50,000 HKD50 cash coupons.
