FLIGHT DETAILS
February 25 is a special holiday in the Philippines that commemorates the 1986 People Power Revolution, a non-violent movement that resulted in the restoration of democracy in the Philippines following 20 years of dictatorial rule. To mark the occasion, Friday’s Fly-In will be over Luzon, the largest island of the Philippines archipelago and home to the capital city of Manila.
