Vice Ganda was one of the main performers of the Naliyagan Festival in Agusan del Sur.
The Naliyagan Festival is a week-long occasion from June 12 to 17. It celebrates the Manobo tribe’s loyalty to their leader Datu Lipus Makapandong.
Vice Ganda eventually made it to the festival based on the photos uploaded on social media by concertgoers.
Prior to this, however, the comedian host and his team encountered flight delays.
He shared real-time updates with his followers about his long journey.
After boarding their plane, Vice Ganda and his team said that they waited for more than an hour before the plane flew.
“So ayun na nga! Matapos ang three-hour delay ngayon naman nasa plane lang kami pero di pa din lumilipad matapos ang mahigit isa’t kalahating oras ng magboard,” he said.
“Kaawa awang mga manlalakbay! Talong talo. Luging lugi,” he added.
This tweet was met with similar stories from his fans about flight delays and other air travel issues.
While Vice Ganda did not name the airline in his tweets, the official Twitter account of the Philippine Airlines replied to one of his tweets.
