Sponsors

The policy of AGIFORS for all their meetings are to have the registration fee for Airline staff and Academics as low as possible. The philosophy behind this is that academics are likely to enter new lines of thought into our field, and having a strong presence by airlines brings great value to both the vendors and the airlines.

It would therefore be great if your organisation could this year be one of our sponsors

    General Info

    There is probably nowhere else as diverse, wondrous, and adventure-filled in the entire Philippines than the province of  Cebu. From cultural and religious landmarks, scenic mountaintops and rugged terrain, world-class dive sites and idyllic islands, and delectable local cuisine to a dynamic mix of first-class cities and rustic towns, Cebu has it all. Add to these an award-winning international airport, and you get an all-in-one destination hailed as one of the best islands in Asia.

    Before getting into the details of how jam-packed Cebu is as a travel destination, it is important to note that the name Cebu may refer to both the island province as a whole and Cebu City, the capital. The latter is a highly urbanized metropolis peppered with heritage sites, religious structures, modern skyscrapers, and expansive malls. The rest of Cebu is where you will find awe-inspiring natural wonders and striking man-made attractions.

    Aside from its scenic wonders, Cebu is also considered a center of culture, a hub for creativity and craftsmanship, and a gastronomic province, drawing in 2 million foreign tourists every year. Cebu also holds some of the busiest airports and seaports in the country, serving as a convenient jump-off point to other renowned destinations such as Boracay, Bohol, Siargao, Siquijor, and Palawan. Getting to these places from Cebu will just be a short and affordable plane or boat ride.
