AirAsia Blogger’s Community 2015 Party in Bangkok
Something big awaits every blogger that night at the AABC 2015. The photo hunt rally held earlier was just the appetizer. For came six in the evening, we were all treated to a night of entertainment, good food, excitement, and culture.
registration started at 6pm
The AirAsia Blogger’s Community Evening Party took place at the Sky Lounge of Eastin Grand Hotel Sathorn. The blogger delegates from several countries showcased a piece of their culture by wearing their national costumes. Some went for the traditional look while others opted for a modern twist. Still, the event appeared like an elegant gathering of various cultures. It was a beautiful sight to behold.

A five-piece band entertained guests with upbeat and contemporary music while the latter indulged in various tasty cuisines and refreshing drinks served that night. It was the perfect time to get to know our teammates from different countries better and bond with our fellow Filipino bloggers. Another highlight of the party was the steaming and fierce dance number of AirAsia’s ground staff. We were in awe as each staff member swayed their hips and moved their limbs to the beat.

Our efforts to showcase our national costumes didn’t go unnoticed as AirAsia gave out a Best Dressed Award that night. The top three contenders were from South Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand. They all looked graceful and dazzling in their national costumes, but in the end, the blogger from Thailand got a unanimous vote as the best-dressed guest.

Of course, AirAsia didn’t let the party end without giving guests an exciting treat. What else but 20 roundtrip flights to any destination, plus two round-trip tickets to Bali with accommodation! It was a big treat for all the winners.
