I was given the opportunity to be one of the first passengers of the newly launched AirAsia flight from Davao to Cebu. Along with fellow bloggers and media members, I got seated in one of AirAsia’s front-row hot seats. As we landed in Mactan-Cebu International Airport, our plane (AirAsia flight Z2522) was greeted with a water salute by airport management. We were also welcomed by members of GMR-Megawide Cebu Airport Corporation (GMCAC).
