This is actually a gift of my eldest sister for my parents and to our youngest sister. I paid for the hotel and my sister paid for the airfare.
I haven't had the chance to fly Philippine Airlines (PR) before. I started to travel by plane in 2001 when I finally was able to conquer my fear of flying. But that was with British Airways.
Flying PR means chekcing in at the Terminal 2 of NAIA. So another first for me as the first time I traveled, I checked in at Terminal 1, a shabby and old terminal which handles foreign airlines.
Terminal 2 is better compared to Terminal 1. I like the design, basic and minimalist, but it serves its purpose.
I was quite excited as well because it's my first time to fly with members of my family. I have been planning this before. Everytime I fly especially during take off, I would imagine my family with me telling them how I like take off and stuff, lol.
I was worried about my mother because it would be her first time to fly and my youngest sister as well. My father had flying experiences already years ago so it was not a new thing for him.
My sister was seated behind me and me at the row with my parents. I did not have the wondow seat this time as my mother occupied that place. I was happy just looking at my parents inside the plane. What I wanted, it all materialised after all. When the plane was preparing to take off, I was talking to my mother just so she would not feel nervous. But when the engine started to roar and the aircraft started to move and we're pushed back against our seats, she said: "Dios ko". I was happy though and I was like a kid and during take off I smiled at my sister and my father told me to stop behaving like that or else other passengers would think it was my first time to fly. Ahhh, I did not really! It was not my first time to fly after all!
It was a nice flight and we enjoyed it even if was only 40 minutes. But it's fun!

We spent two days in Cebu. My first time in Cebu as well!
On our way back, we flew Airbus 330. We're delayed for 2 hours I think. But it's OK we were not in a hurry and we just enjoyed chilling out at the airport.
When we were about to board the plane, she got nervous when she saw the plane. She said it was too big and that alone made her nervous. I told her there are bigger planes still, hehehehehe.
This time I sat next to my sister. So again, during take off, I got to see her reaction. It was fun especially that we did not really have a nice take off and right after we lifted off the ground, we got bothered by some turbulence and the aircraft was not stable. I almost puked.
So, with this journey, I had some firsts:
-first with PR
-first with T2
-first with Airbus 320
-first time to visit Cebu and the Cebu Mactan Airport
-first time to fly with members of the family
