My dad said he would like all of his family members to attend since they couldn't go to the one in the United States. Carmina booked her flight during Philippine Airlines ’ year-end sale at the start of 2026. I told my dad about my travel plans for a short trip from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19. My cousins also asked for my flight details so they could book the same flight. My dad said he will book my room for me sharing with two family members at Summit Hotel in Tacloban .

Of course each sibling needs to pay equal share of the expenses made during the process and help pay the daily expense to take care of their ancestor’s home and to pay the property taxes to make sure the bank doesn’t get a hold of it in the future.
