Our favourite places to stay on this sleepy Cebu island.

Passengers on a flight to Bohol got more than just window views when a man pulled off a surprise wedding proposal on a plane, right in the middle of an AirAsia flight!
On 5 Aug, 2025, 37-year-old Mark Anthony Adviento popped the big question to his girlfriend, 32-year-old Myra Donne Chua, during AirAsia Flight Z2 350 from Manila to Tagbilaran. The entire cabin burst into cheers as Myra said “YES!”. The romantic flight proposal instantly turned strangers into witnesses and crew into co-conspirators!

This wasn’t some last-minute idea. Mark had secretly contacted AirAsia weeks in advance to ask for help staging the moment. The airline said yes, too! Known for supporting purposeful journeys, AirAsia worked closely with its flight attendants to create the perfect moment in the sky.
“I chose to propose on an AirAsia flight because all our loved ones were with us,” Mark said. “It was the perfect setting for something we’d remember forever! AirAsia’s great service, safety, and value made it an easy decision!”
The proposal was timed mid flight. Mark stood up, walked over to Myra, and dropped to one knee! Passengers gasped, then clapped and cheered when Myra tearfully said yes! It was the kind of wedding proposal that makes your heart skip a beat!
Their love story wasn’t instant. They met in August 2022, but it wasn’t until December 2024 that Myra finally said yes to being his girlfriend, after turning Mark down three times! For Mark, the wait was worth it. He calls their relationship an “answered prayer” filled with patience and faith.
Smooth skies and full hearts
Even with the thrill in the air, AirAsia made sure all safety protocols were followed. The crew helped pull off the moment smoothly, without disrupting the flight!
This unforgettable AirAsia proposal proves that love really can take flight! Whether it’s a honeymoon, a reunion, or a romantic surprise, AirAsia continues to be part of life’s most magical moments.
From sky-high proposals to once-in-a-lifetime love stories, this airline truly knows how to make hearts soar!
