There are six (6) long weekends to look forward to. Exciting, isn't it? 

If you intend to go out of town during holidays, consider that airline ticket is way cheaper when you book in advanced. It may be a good time now to ‘stalk’ airlines for seats sale. Follow them on their official social media accounts to know the latest news and promos. and visit their official websites frequently. If you’re not up to that, a simple hotel ‘staycation’ may be a good alternative for you and your family. It will be a way for you to bond, recharge and de-stress in the comforts of Metro Manila or nearby provinces. There are lots of staycation promos offered in several deal sites. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to relax and unwind.

I hope everyone will have the best of their vacations. Spend your time wisely!
