The messages started pouring in last night as I was trying to queue up for confession at the Opus Dei base in Ortigas.
The first one came from my husband - “It was good your trip was cancelled. There is a missing plane in Tuguegarao.” I immediately forwarded the message to my supposed to be fellow travellers last Wednesday and Thursday from Manila to Tuguegarao and back again. I forwarded another message to the IP Queen herself who made all our flight arrangements. Her response was, “Yes, I heard about it. It’s one of the chartered planes we also hire for our needs.”
Today, the first message I opened in my email is from my boss.
Personal message:
Aren’t you glad the commercial flight was cancelled?
Below is the link he sent regarding the missing plane.
Plane carrying 7 people reported missing in Cagayan
MANILA, Philippines — A small plane carrying seven people was reported missing today after leaving Tuguegarao airport in Cagayan Valley.
Reports said the aircraft, piloted by Capt. Tomas Yanez and Capt. Reiner Cruz, with passengers SPO2 Rolly Castanos, Celestino Salacup, Abelardo Baggay, Joel Basilio, and James Bakilan, did not reach its destination in Maconacon, Isabela.
The plane left the airport around 8 a.m., reports added.
Police are now checking with the Air Transportation Office to locate the missing plane. - By Dennis Carcamo (Philstar News Service, www.philstar.com)
Yes, I am glad I was not on that flight. I still have guardian angels looking after me. Now, I wonder how many lives I still have left…
