From the chief
As an airline, we’ve always advocated indulging
your sense of adventure and wanderlust, and
many of our seat sale promotions are designed
to encourage people to just pack up and go:
Somewhere new, anywhere interesting.
The low-fare revolution inspired by Cebu Pacific has, in
many ways, helped create this kind of travel culture in the
Philippines, where the destinations matter as much as the
act of simply getting up and going. These days, people scan
maps for new places to visit not just because they need to,
but because they want to. There’s no better time to flex these
adventure muscles than now, in the warm and sunny months
of the tropical summer. Might we suggest jetting off to places
in the Philippines you’ve not yet scratched off your travel map?
This issue is packed with ideas for new places to explore and
local cultures to experience. And if time and resources allow,
there are 29 international destinations on our network. Choose
anything from quick escapes to next-door neighbors like Hong
Kong and Singapore to longer getaways to any of our long-haul
destinations like Doha in Qatar, a newcomer to our roster, and
the popular Australian hot spot of Sydney.
Wherever you choose to go
in April, may the spirit of fun
and adventure guide your way.
Happy travels, everyone!
