AirAsia Philippines said it is preparing to serve its guests better with some essential travel hacks to help them beat the heat while enjoying their summer vacation.
Over 1.5 million AirAsia guests have already booked seats for summer travel as of April 8, with most choosing beach and island resorts, as well as heritage and cultural destinations for the warmth of the sun.
Airline spokesman Steve Dailisan said despite the average daily temperature of 35°C and Heat Index of up to 43°C across the Philippines and neighboring countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam, people are still eager to travel.
To help travelers make the most out of their trips, AirAsia Philippines is sharing some essential travel hacks to ensure a memorable summer experience. Here are the essential travel hacks shared by AirAsia Philippines:
1. Wear loose clothing made of lightweight materials to allow better air circulation around your body.
2. Avoid doing strenuous outdoor activities between 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
3. If you are going on a walking tour, always bring protection such as sunblock, sun visor, and umbrella.
4. Consider traveling at night to enjoy the night markets and other attractions.
5. Drink more water than usual. Practice sustainable travel by bringing your water container.
6. Be aware of the symptoms of heat exhaustion: extreme fatigue, dizziness and vomiting, headache, cold sweat, and rapid heart rate.
AirAsia Philippines also suggested travelers to have travel insurance covering medical expenses.
“Everyone loves to have fun in the sun. Adequate planning will save you a lot of stress. To make lasting memories together with your loved ones, it is important to travel safely and responsibly. We know how much travel means to you. Let us all take care and enjoy the best deals on flights and hotels via airasia Move. Any amount you save on your flights and hotels goes a long way to allow you to spend more at the destination,” said Dailisan.
Traveling responsibly is a shared commitment among guests and airline staff. This includes cleanliness inside and outside the airport premises, as well as the aircraft.
“Being a responsible tourist also includes keeping the aircraft clean, which contributes to our commitment to delivering the best affordable and on-time air travel as it saves extra time for any additional cleaning between flights,” Dailisan said.
AirAsia flies to a total of 12 domestic destinations and 13 international destinations as of April 2024.
