Flight Cancellations during Papal Visit
The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) announced recently, the limitation of the air traffic an general operation during the papal visit from January 15 to 19. On the arrival and departure days of Pope Francis as well as on 17th – the day he will visit Tacloban – many domestic and international flights are cancelled, some are moved to a later time of the day.
Pope Francis visits the Philippines
Pope Francis is the first pontiff to visit the Philippines since 1995, when Pope John Paul II. visited the archipelago in January 1995. He presided over the World Youth Day 1995. His mass on the closing day was attended by over 4 Million people, the biggest crowed the pontiff ever faced during his reign.
Crowd at World Youth Day 1995 Closing Mass held by John Paul II
On Jan. 15 (2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.), on Jan. 17 (7:45 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. and 5:45 p.m. – 6:45 p.m.), and when the Holy Father departs on Jan. 19 (6:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.) are no departures and arrivals due to the security of the Holy Father. Some international airlines moved their flights to a later departure the same days.
However, serious delays and more flight cancellations can be expected during the five days of the papal visit as well as before and after due to several security measurements and dry runs which will take place.

The Dumaguete Adventure Marathon 2014 (DAM) takes place on November 16, 2014. Runners from all over the Philippines and guests from all over the world will come to Dumaguete to join local runner, jogger and walker for this adventurous run through the city of gentle people and its surroundings.
42km long – 1.2 km high – The real DAM
The route of the 42.195 meters of the full distance is more challenging than ever. This year’s Dumaguete Adventure Marathon brings you all the way up to the Filipino-Japanese-American Shrine, roughly 1,200 meters above sea level, so make sure you have some up-hill training to master this challenge of ascends around 40%. The course will also use some unpaved roads, loos gravel and mountain washouts. Good footwear is therefore absolute mandatory.
21km Half Marathon
The Half Marathon also has its challenges. Getting from Robinsons via Batinguel towards the mountain and back is an exciting experience and still requires good training.
