Mabuhay has been a trusted companion in the skies — a curated guide to Filipino culture, travel and hospitality.

Published quarterly, it aims to introduce a new generation of travelers to the people, ideas and perspectives that give this country its pulse. Each issue will feature a guest editor wherein voices from different fields will help shape how stories are told and bringing own insights on Filipino creativity and excellence today. 

With its renewed vision and design it continues to be a celebration of life, travel and all things distinctly Filipino.
