AirAsia in Iloilo: Day One

AirAsia in Iloilo
My first time in Iloilo!



A few days ago, AirAsia flew us to Iloilo for Dinagyang Festival weekend! We left Manila Friday afternoon and arrived in Iloilo in less than an hour! It's been a while since I last flew with AirAsia and being that it was my first trip out of town this 2018, I was super excited!

And of course, we couldn't leave the airport without taking photos at the AirAsia booth!

Over the weekend, AirAsia offered free shuttle services to its guests from Iloilo International Airport to the city.

Since we arrived pretty late in the afternoon, we had to skip some activities and head straight to the Dinagyang Hawkers Food Festival in SM City Iloilo. Yes, kain ulit.

After dinner, we were given a bit of time to explore, walk around, and take photos of the events happening around the area. Jeman, Myrns, Princess, and I decided to go inside the mall to look for some dessert.

We found a stall that sells brownie a la mode with different toppings for only Php 49! Craving satisfied! :D

We ended the night with Luces in the Sky - a fireworks display also in SM City Iloilo!
