Travel : My 2014 Japan Trip

Well well well ....can't we choose something more ancient than 2014 ...😅 ( answer for that question ... don't challenge me, LOL)

Why 2014?
Actually, it't not about the time, but more about the trip or the activity or the "travel"  it self.I do have my 2017 Japan Trip, but for today let me share the 2014's trip.

If any of you know have Indonesian friend/s , they will tell you kurang piknik (not enough picnic)  is not good. And i just about that these days, i need picnic, i need to go somewhere else , i need TRAVEL!

And that key word , bring us or at least me to my ancient travel pictures. Let me walk you through it.

Review : TRAVELOKA

Good day :)

Hello 2017 and I just got back from my  LONG VACATION, and talking about vacation, mine always include AIRPLANE .

And ...nope.. we won't talk about my favorite airplane comapny ^^, instead i'll share my favorite place to purchase my plane ticket and that is  TRAVELOKA.

Traveloka is an online ticketing company.

Before we going further into my review, I'll first giving an info about this company.

Traveloka founder is Ferry Unardi Derianto Kusuma and Albert in 2012

The idea was came from Ferry Unardi , said he was studied at Harvard University, USA and on that period of time he always found a difficulty to obtain a ticket from US to his hometown Padang, Indonesia.

At first Traveloka was function as a comparing plane price website, but 2013 it changed to a online plane ticket reservation website and from there its evolved , adding smartphone app and on to hotel room reservation.

Read in Wikipedia , Ferry Unardi  was worked at Microsoft and Derianto Kusuma was worked as LinkedIn software engineer in Sillicon Valley but they were came back to Indonesia to built Traveloka.

Now, we back to my own experience using this company.

Once upon a time, i feel the most stressed part of vacation aside from packing ,was purchased a ticket. So many stepped need to be done, pick up a phone, call a travel agent ask for plane price, not to forget mention the time we favor, add to that because the ticketing system was online ( not the online that i know) it means the price is changing all the time. So we need to booked it first, and if it's time, and we okay, or if the agent inform that the price will go up, we OK it and they will issued it, and then, wait for the ticket in our email and we print it  or just booking code.....Just to write the process exhaust me.

But then, TRAVELOKA happens ^^
I started to use it in 2014, i know this company from ..kinda forgot where...perhaps on Facebook or TV ad , anyway the first time i tried it ... it's WOW me, easy as the ad said.

And by easy i mean... browse your Depart place to where you about to going, choose from many airplane company, what time, what price, fill your name (same as ID or Passport, please), email and phone number, choose payment method , and done, wait for email, SMS  or e-ticket on your app.

But because it's new for me, i called the customer service to make sure my purchased was valid. And it was.
Not to mention Traveloka price does cheaper as , again... the ad said ... YES, i did checked it with travel agent too, lol.

Traveloka expand very quick, now it's provide service in Indonesia , Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam,Thailand and Philippines
