Due to the pandemic, many of us are still unsure about the idea of traveling after all, COVID-19 still lurks in the shadows. This weekend, I finally had the courage to fly out of Manila for a much-needed beach getaway. My first air travel since the lockdown!
Join me as I rediscover the outside world and the concept of travel in the new normal.

Overall, we had such a wonderful time at Club Paradise Palawan. I couldn’t have asked for more. I’m really glad I spent my first ever post-lockdown travel adventure here, I can’t even think of a better place to relax, reset, and recharge. Props to the unmatched hospitality shown to us by Discovery Group!
And one thing is for sure! Once travel returns to normal, I would definitely go back and treat my family here! The unmatched hospitality, care, and warm accommodation of Discovery Group’s staff is really what sets it apart from the rest of the resorts and hotels I’ve been to. The staff’s hospitality is really what makes the experience here unique.
My Thoughts about the flight:
The entire booking, checking-in, and boarding was all-in-all a lengthy but relatively smooth process. Although, the process took longer than usual and more tedious as the airline staff still had to go through each of our documents and had to recheck if it’s falsified or not. It was still definitely a welcome change.
Props to Cebu Pacific and the local government of Coron for managing to implement and carry out a smooth and systematic protocol that would prioritize the safety of the tourists coming in and out of Coron.
Becoming a responsible new normal traveler:
Protocols change sometimes without notice and with the global pandemic still raging around the world, of course, I too had my fair share of hesitations and went back and forth before actually arranging this trip (it’s better to be safe than sorry).
I did a lot of research and made sure that I have followed the “new normal travel guidelines” so I wouldn’t be caught off guard. At the airport, I saw a lot of travelers that were uninformed of the requirements and new procedures. These setbacks would sometimes prevent them from boarding the plane or from making the trip. Thankfully, the Club Paradise Palawan staff was very helpful and had provided us with FAQ’s and a summary of the travel requirements right upon booking and had guided us all throughout prior to our departure.
Another thing that made me decide to finally go on this trip was the thought of having an entire island all to ourselves. Also, the fact that all guests were required to take an RT-PCR test (48hrs before flight) and the resort staff were isolated in a “safety bubble”- so it can’t get any safer than that!
I’ve concluded that traveling amid the pandemic can be safe and harmless as long as you take extra precautions and become a more responsible traveler by following the rules, doing your research, and carefully planning out your trip before anything else.
