“Ah, I remember how it was like when I was your age; young, energetic, eager to see the whole of Sios. 'Course, that's why you're here in the first place; I should know, it was the same reason for me. I'm getting on these days, but if there's one thing I've learned in all my years as a Captain, it's this; there's always something waiting to be discovered, there's always somewhere waiting to be visited, and at the end of the day, there's always a new brew in one of 'em Ports you'd want to toss back.” - Captain Christopher Cornbern, the Arcwhale Hunter

The Weekend Event on the second weekend of every month is always the “Trade Winds” (Travel Fair) Event. During this particular Weekend Event, all AP costs from Travelling are reduced to a maximum of 5 AP per trip. Every second weekend of the month, there will be a travel fair weekend called ” Trade Winds”.
The Weapons & Parts Shops in the various Ports offer Weapons and Parts which cannot be found in other Ports; this means Captains usually need to Travel to these Ports to get the Weapons and Parts they need.
Because of this, the “Trade Winds” Event is the best time to do so, due to the reduced AP cost. Travelling to the various Ports for Weapons/Parts purchases during the “Trade Winds” Event can result in significant AP savings.

They may also find all their needs satisfied at the Shipyard and the Weapons & Parts Shop, keep an eye out for bargains at the Auctions and Resource Exchange, or relax and unwind at the Tavern
