Experience a southern holiday for P488 with Airphil Express

Philippine Star
November 7, 2011


THERE’s no reason to miss home during the holidays this year. Airphil Express, the country’s fastest growing budget airline, plays Santa and lets Filipinos welcome Christmas and the coming New Year in their home province or in their preferred vacation spots at a discounted fare: Manila to Kalibo, Tacloban, Tagbilaran, Masbate, and Busuanga, or vice-versa, and Busuanga to Puerto Princesa, or vice-versa for only P488, one-way.

The latest Express Sale features some of the country’s best destinations down south. If you and your travel group wish to experience home-style festivities, visit Tacloban and its religious shrines, heritage sites, famous delicacies, and the hospitable locals. Those yearning for a nature-filled Yuletide can bring their loved ones to Bohol via Tagbilaran, and marvel at the natural wonder of the Chocolate Hills, relax on the white sandy beach under the stars, and delight in gastronomic and musical treats while cruising along Loboc River. Masbate and Busuanga are also highly recommended if you crave an idyllic Christmas. Or go via Kalibo if you want to travel to Boracay where local hosts pull out all the stops to throw unforgettable Christmas and New Year revelries.

“No one celebrates Christmas like Filipinos do,” shares Alfredo Herrera, Airphil Express SVP for Marketing and Sales. “With this Express Sale timed around Christmas and New Year, we want our loyal passengers to take a break and go on a much-deserved vacation with their family and friends. Filipinos will brave the holiday travel rush to be with their loved ones, whether in their hometown or in a nice place out of town. We want to help them save money on airline tickets so they can splurge on pasalubong, aguinaldo, and other holiday stuff.”

The Express Sale selling and ticketing dates are from November 8 to 10, 2011, enabling customers to travel to their preferred destinations from December 1, 2011 to January 31, 2012 during the merriest season of the year.  

Airphil Express offers exciting promo seat sales so travelers can experience more of the Philippines as much as they can. Aside from providing comfort-driven products and services like the Web Check-In, Seat Selector, Travel Insurance, and Pre-Paid Baggage, the airline grants exclusive perks of as much as 15 kilos free baggage allowance and an additional 7-kilo free hand carry.
