  • Cebu Pacific Elevates Passenger Experience at NAIA T3

    Cebu Pacific (PSE: CEB), the Philippines’ leading airline, enhanced customer service at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 (NAIA T3) by allowing passengers who accomplished online check-in to enter through a dedicated gate, among other features that will ease travel experience.

    From the first entrance at the NAIA T3 Departures (Online Check-In Entrance), customers who checked-in online can go straight to the boarding gates if they don’t need to check in their bags.

    Passengers who need to check in their bags may proceed to CEB’s self-bag tag kiosks at Isle E, scan their boarding passes at a machine, print and attach the tags on their bags. Thereafter, domestic passengers may proceed to the online check-in bag drop counters at E16-E29, while international passengers may check the counters assigned to them on the flight information monitors near Isles D and E.

    Meanwhile, passengers who did not check in online may enter through Gates 1 and 2 and use any of the check-in kiosks located in between Isle D and E. They may also print their bag tags and use the bag drop counters located between D16-D29 and E1-E15.

    CEB will offer a repack area where all passengers can check if they are within their baggage allowance or not. It also allows passengers to conveniently repack or arrange their bags if necessary.

    The airline is also ready to address the concerns of passengers with same-day flights by operating a 24/7 help desk at its ticket office near NAIA T3 Arrival Gate 6.

    “Our top priority at Cebu Pacific is to ensure the safety and comfort of our passengers. As demand for air travel picks up, we hope that these solutions will allow our customers to travel more conveniently and reach their destinations with ease,” said Lei Apostol, Cebu Pacific Vice President for Customer Service Operations.

    “Our focus is to make sure that we will deliver the best service to our riding public and to our fellow Filipinos. This supports our overall goal to continuously enhance travel experience for all passengers passing through the NAIA,” said Chiong.

    CEB advises its passengers to book their flights online by creating a MyCebuPacific account to get notifications about their upcoming trips, manage their bookings, access their Travel Funds, among other features. Online check-in is also available via the Cebu Pacific app and website, reducing passenger waiting time at the airport and allowing them to go straight to their assigned boarding gates.

  • The Fem Manual: A Woman’s Feminine Hygiene Guide To Becoming Her Best Self

    Women of today have shown how formidable and tenacious they are by breaking through multiple glass ceilings at work, at home, and in society all in the name of gender equity. This relentless path to gender equity has been paved by women who wholeheartedly embrace their individuality day in and day out, and who constantly strive to become their best selves.

    A lot of care and consideration is needed when trying to become your best self. Since women have varying definitions of what that ‘best self’ looks like, it is important to note that the only way to fully achieve any of those definitions is by choosing to take proper care of yourself every day.

    As women, one of the best ways to practice self-care is through good feminine hygiene. Your intimate region or your “femzone” not only requires attention, it also requires delicate and essential care in order to keep your overall health in tip-top shape — because when you win in health, you win at life.

    Here are five things you need to know about feminine hygiene:

    1.      Confidence is key

    Being able to embrace one’s uniqueness comes down to one crucial factor: confidence. To build that confidence up, you must practice taking care of your body and health regularly because when you look and feel good, you become more confident in yourself and more appreciative of your individuality.

    This is one of the reasons why organizations from all over the country are making consistent efforts to aid women in becoming more confident in their own skin, by creating brands and products that make them feel good both inside and out.

    2.      A clean femzone is a happy femzone

    While the femzone is known for its self-cleaning abilities, it wouldn’t hurt to give it the occasional wash from time to time. The best way to keep your femzone happy and clean is to use feminine washes that are formulated to be gentle and maintain your femzone’s balance.

    IAmWoman Press Release Supporting Photo 1

    Considering that the femzone requires distinct care from the rest of the body, long-trusted products like Lactacyd Feminine Wash is a perfect fit as it has a long-standing history of helping women as early as 1947 in protecting and cleansing the femzone.

    3.      Get deep and learn what your femzone needs

    Before starting and creating any routine with your femzone, remember that every femzone is unique. Methods that might work for others might not work for you. Make sure you get deep and learn your femzone’s specific needs, by testing products and routines to know what kind of care works best for your femzone.

    Luckily for women everywhere, there are products that offer a full range of options for every kind of care that your femzone might need. Whether the need might be having it moisturized or revitalized, naturally and safely whiten, having long-lasting coolness and freshness or keeping irritation and odor away, there is a feminine wash fit for you.

    4.      Get your femzone checked

    While home remedies work for the common cold, it will not do when trying to resolve an issue with your femzone, like menstrual cramps or dysmenorrhea.

    IAmWoman Press Release Supporting Photo 2

    For matters as sensitive as this, the simple hot compress will no longer do. Fortunately for women everywhere, over-the-counter medications exist to target this very unique experience. Medications like Hyoscine N-butylbromide + Paracetamol (Buscopan Venus) provide the dual action formula that targets the source of menstrual cramps and simultaneously provides relief versus usual analgesics that just mask the pain.

    But, while this medication exists, make sure to accompany this with regular doctor visits to always be updated on the condition of your femzone.

    5.      Find your purpose and live it out

    In owning all the ways you can take proper care of yourself, you learn to appreciate your unique perspective, skills, and experiences even more. Use that appreciation to identify your life’s purpose and decide to live it out every day.

    Make the intention to positively impact groups as small as your circle of friends or crowds as big as communities around you, and influence others to do the same. After all, every woman is a woman of impact and influence in their own way.

    Bodies grow and change with age. Your femzone is a part of your body that faces health challenges at various points of your life, which is why brands like Lactacyd and Buscopan Venus exist; they recognize that caring for one’s femzone is a continuous process and keeping it healthy is an important part of your overall health.

    “We know that taking care of the femzone is not easy, but it is necessary. We wanted women to know that we understand their struggle and we want to make caring for their femzone a little bit easier,” said Ysabel Banson, Group Brand Lead for Sanofi Consumer Healthcare.

  • FIBA ambassador Luis Scola and American rapper Saweetie to banner FIBA World Cup Draw 2023

    The world’s biggest basketball tournament is about to unfold in Manila at the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023, with basketball legend Luis Scola gracing the much-anticipated draw with performances by American rapper Saweetie, Sarah Geronimo, and Billy Crawford this Saturday, April 29 at the Smart Araneta Center in Cubao, Quezon City.

    FIBA Draw 1

    Scola has won multiple medals as a member of the national men’s basketball team of Argentina. He played for Argentina’s national squad from 2001 until 2019, winning two silver medals at the FIBA World Championships, one each in 2002 and during his final tournament in 2019 at the age of 39. During the 2015 FIBA Americas Championship tournament, Scola became the all-time leading scorer in FIBA AmeriCup history and won his 4th tournament MVP.

    On the live performance side, Saweetie is an American rapper who made a name for herself by rhyming over iconic tracks, giving a nod to those who came before while building her own catalog of fiery hits such as “My Type,” “Tap In,” and “Best Friend,” a collaboration with Doja Cat.

  • DadBud Academy kicks off to empower dads nationwide

    Communities have become a safe space which allows each individual to grow and thrive. Whether it focuses on housing, food, fitness, or parenting, a community brings together like-minded people to share and uplift one another.

    2 The first ever DadBud Academy at Robinsons Gallerias Robinsons Movieworld

    At a time when parent communities were dominated by moms, in came a new dad on the block which led to the birth of one of the country’s largest and most active dad  communities on Facebook to date—DadBudPH.

    At the helm is advertising entrepreneur and food content creator Joey Ong, who founded the community in 2019 when his wife was pregnant, initially as a way to seek counsel from more experienced dads.

    “Back then, I didn’t know much about being a dad and there weren’t a lot of communities which brought dads together the way mom groups did,” he said. “DadBudPH became a platform to share personal experiences, get inspired, and really just spread the good vibes of fatherhood.”

    Since then, DadBudPH has steadily grown and recently hit gold with over 50,000 members—an unprecedented 90% of which are highly engaged everyday. Fueled by dads and dad figures of various ages, socio-economic classes, and locations, the community brings to life topics related to fatherhood—parenting, family, homes, humor, entertainment, food, fitness, gadgets, pop culture, and more.

    Last November 2022, DadBudPH earned international recognition by no less than Meta, a multinational technology conglomerate which owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and more. It became the only parenting group in the Philippines to be invited to the coveted Facebook accelerator program which kicked off in Singapore as a thrust to help grow the community further.

    A fresh new concept

    To celebrate the golden milestone of over 50,000 members, Joey recently kicked off DadBud Academy, a program which brings dads together in a series of physical events to learn, enjoy, and be inspired for a better future. As parenting events are usually centered on or organized by moms, this is an untapped initiative and a novel way to honor and empower fathers year-round. The freshness and potential of this concept led to popular establishments pitching in to help expand its footprint.

    The pilot event entitled “Dad Talks” was held at Robinsons Galleria’s Robinsons Movieworld and Playlab, where established dads shared their stories to inspire other dads. TV personality Kim Atienza, former seminarian Romulo Velasco, Filipino-American actor Troy Montero, “ausome” parenting dad Ron Ramos, Kalye Negosyo and Potato Corner founder Jorge Wieneke, and Emmanuel Manansala and Ed Embradora from LIV Ministries spoke to an audience of close to 200 dads and their families, giving them a glimpse of their personal journeys and how they became who they are today.

    “This advocacy aims to let go of any stigma that dads are slackers, or corporate slaves or executives who are too busy for family. We can also be domesticated, entrepreneurial, and most importantly—the best husbands we can be to our wives and the best dads we can be to our children,” Joey said. “We have lots of exciting opportunities up ahead, with the end goal of supporting and honoring dads whose roles in the family are valuable and irreplaceable.”

    The DadBud Academy will be rolling out fun-filled events in the coming weeks leading up to Father’s Day, which include with an immersive high-tech play session at Robinsons Galleria’s PlayLab, a deep dive into financial literacy for families, a food festival run by small-medium business (SME) dads, and more.

    So stay tuned, dads! For those who haven’t yet, join the DadBudPH community on Facebook and—as they say—“be a buddy to your fellow daddy”.
