AirAsia Philippines and vivo are coming together once again to drum up the return of face-to-face celebration of local festivals, starting with Zamboanga City’s Hermosa Festival. The world’s best low-cost airline and vivo also aim to spur demand for domestic and inbound international travel through aggregated online content and special promos and deals.
The travel and tech giants hero the importance of organic online content in the rebound of tourism demand. In attaining this goal, the industry leaders partnered with Miss Earth Philippines 2020 Roxie Smith to share with her audience an immersive experience at Hermosa Festival’s Celebracion de Colores which features the Regatta de Zamboanga, or race of the Vintas; and the Mascota Fashion show and competition, which rallied local designers to compete with their best interpretation of the traditional Zamboangueño ensemble, Mascota.
The airline is also set to join the much-anticipated float parade of the MassKara festival, highlighting cultural landmarks and milestones of Bacolod in its float.
AirAsia Philippines Head of Communications and Public Affairs Steve Dailisan shares: “In our respective industries, AirAsia and vivo promote the same mission: democratizing services and technology. By launching quality yet affordable flights, AirAsia was able to empower more people to travel. vivo, on the other hand, has enabled more tech-savvy individuals to be more productive with powerful technology sans the need to invest in heftily priced devices. Through this value of attainability, more people get to enjoy leisure travel and content creation, which are both integral to the recovery of not just tourism but all other attached sectors.”
The partnership is set to be sustained with a freebie promo for all AirAsia guests who flew with the world’s best low-cost airline from August 13 to October 30.
