WHAT CAN YOU CHARTER A HELICOPTER FOR?

Airgurus Ltd. Co. is the leading helicopter charter and aircraft company in the Philippines with a 24/7 operations center at Delta Hangar, Domestic Airport Road, Pasay City.

The following are popular uses for helicopters especially for first time flyers as per Airgurus:

• Helicopter sightseeing.... perhaps over a local landmark during sunset.
• Helicopter flying lesson, often called trial lessons or air experience flights, when the customer gets a chance to try flying for themselves
• A helicopter flight to a wedding, perhaps one’s own!
• A helicopter trip to Boracay, Baguio, Palawan and many other tourist destinations!
• A helicopter experience, or short hop to just experience the magic of a rotary flight!

There are many other important reasons for chartering a helicopter... i.e., medical evacuation, air ambulance and search and rescue operations! Almost anything can be arranged if the prospective customer simply lets their requirements be known.

Points to Consider When Choosing A Helicopter Operator

• Helicopter flying is not cheap, but it may not be as expensive as some people think. 
• It is worth the customer considering what it is that they actually want. 
• If all that is wanted is to see what it feels like, it is best to look for a company which arranges the most number of helicopter experiences. 
• These may be very short flights of five or ten minutes, with a number of people aboard; so they can be done reasonably and economically. 
• If the customer has a special requirement and needs the helicopter for himself, family or friends, this can be arranged but he will pay accordingly.
• It is always worth shopping around and letting the helicopter charter company know exactly what is required.
• The customer will pay before the helicopter leaves its base.

A helicopter trip is very special. If it is planned carefully, it could provide a never-to-be-forgotten experience. Airgurus Ltd. Co. can fly you anytime you want, wherever you want, with as little as two (2) hours notice or even less provided an aircraft is readily available.


Call Airgurus 24/7 at +632 583 6337 / +632 854 4086 / +63 905 272 3022 / +63 920 955 0897 / +63 917 596 6288 or click here to send us an email.

GETTING READY FOR THE SINULOG GRAND PARADE (CEBU CITY)

Scrambling for the almost fully-booked airline reservations and hotel accommodations for Cebu City on January 16, 2011 must be done now. I've done this a few minutes ago for a friend although I, on the other hand is confirmed to be going with friends chartering a private helicopter with Airgurus Ltd. Co... just to make sure I don't miss out feeling the beat and the rhythm of the grandest, most distinguished and most colorful festivals in the Philippines... Sinulog Festival!


This major festival is held each year in Cebu City to honor the Santo Niño or the child Jesus who used to be the patron saint of the whole province of Cebu (since in the Catholic faith, Jesus is not a saint but God). It is fundamentally a dance ritual remembering the Filipino pagan past and their recognition of Christianity.

 
The festival features some of the country's most colorful displays of ceremony and pageantry... participants are clothed in bright-colored costumes dancing to the rhythm of drums and native gongs. The streets are generally lined with vendors and pedestrians (foreign and local tourists) all wanting to witness the street dancing!

The celebration traditionally lasts for nine days, ending on the ninth day when the Sinulog Grand Parade reveals. The day before the parade, the Fluvial Procession, a water-parade, held at dawn from the Mandaue City wharf to Cebu City wharf with the Santo Niño carried on a pump boat decorated with hundreds of flowers and candles. The procession ends at the Basilica where a re-enactment of the Christianizing of Cebu follows. In the afternoon, a more formal procession takes place along the major streets of the city, which last for hours due to large crowd participating in the religious event. On the feast day, at the Basilica, a Pontifical Mass is held, given by the Cardinal with the assistance of several bishops of Cebu. The majority of the city’s population and devotees would flock to the Basilica to attend the mass before heading out to the streets to watch the Parade. 

Here's the schedule of the January 16, 2011 (Sunday)  SINULOG GRAND PARADE
4:00 AM    Mañanita Mass @Basilica del Sto. Niño
6:00 AM    Pontifical mass with His Eminence Ricardo J. Cardinal Vidal
9:00 AM    Sinulog Grand Parade Carousel Kick Off
7:00 PM    Grand Fireworks, Cebu City Sports Center
7:30 PM    Street Party Bands, Fuente Osmeña 

I am so looking forward to see Cebu City in a different light... I can already imagine hovering the magnificent city  in the South of the Philippines and arriving in style.
