It is a multimedia approach to the story-telling function of media. Sun.Star network homepage showing the 12 areas.

Multimedia specials Sun.Star's blogs and specials Major news events in the Philippines were marked by coverage through live streaming or real-time video reports over the Internet of the Pedro Calungsod (2nd Filipino saint) thanksgiving day in November 2012, Sinulog celebration in Cebu in January 2013, local and national elections in May 2013, President Benigno Aquino III’s State of the Nation Address (Sona) in July 2013, and the Ironman 70.3 Philippines in August, among others. Multimedia breaking news reports such as those on the February 6, 2012 earthquake that hit Cebu and Negros also were among the most read articles on the website and on Sun.Star’s social media. Blogs and Specials Sun.Star Blogs and Specials, a section where you can find updates on current events and hottest issues of the day.

This section contains several micro-sites that were designed to cover certain topics and issues, such as corruption in the government, developments in the Aquino administration, updates on Cebu’s grandest festival – the Sinulog, environment, entertainment, schedule of fights and the life of Filipino boxing champ Manny Pacquiao, and even a section for Filipinos abroad, among others. Each of these micro-sites is interactive and has videos, photos, maps and graphics. Sinulog Festival ( ) The Sinulog coverage in multimedia by is a highlight every year that brings peaks in visits and page views to the Sun.Star website. The section’s aim is to provide the global audience with information about the Sinulog, annual fiesta of Cebu, in text, photos, video, music, and live streaming. Interactivity and feedback The Sun.Star website offers its audience a plurality of methods through which to speak out or talk back. Newspaper readers can voice out on issues through texting and by e-mail. Online visitors could do the same plus they have the facility to comment directly on a news report through a message board or by clicking on the comment link on a blog post.

Publication of online feedback is immediate or, if delayed, it is usually for approval purposes only so publishers could screen out abusive, foul and unrelated comments. News websites post e-mail addresses of authors and editors. A click on such a link would bring the online visitor to an email page containing the writer’s address. Feedback by media consumers used to be purely one-way. Today, that conversation could be two-way or in multiple channels as in social media, with the exchanges happening at almost the same time. Some are in text, others in video or audio. It might not always be a sober conversation, it could even sound like a babble of voices; but the result is people trying to converse with each other. Icons represent reader’s tools or tools to allow readers to print the article, e-mail, comment on it, share it with other readers and to subscribe to a news feed.

Screenshot of Sun.Star's webcast as seen on the website. Social media The Sun.Star website is benefiting from the content sharing going around among users of Facebook and Twitter. Facebook, that social media site that is an online hangout for most of its 800 million users worldwide, is giving the website an advantage in terms of reach as Facebook sharing is sending readers to it. The Associated Press has reported on a study done by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism that showed how “Facebook is influencing what news gets read online as people use the Internet’s most popular hangout to share and recommend content.” Links to articles on the Sun.Star website are posted on Facebook and these get to be shared and “liked.” This recommending and sharing of content is not one-way and is not limited to serious news. It can be fun, light and interactive.

With the growing importance of social media in the distribution of its news and other information, the Sun.Star website office has devised a protocol to guide its reporters and editors on the use of these tools.

Cebu Pacific Air – Why everyone flies >PRESS RELEASES / June 21, 2016 CEB is the country’s largest carrier to operate flights out of Davao ​The only carrier that links Davao to 4 Philippine destinations​ The Philippines' leading airline, Cebu Pacific (PSE: CEB), celebrates being the country's largest carrier to operate flights out of Davao, one of its six strategic hubs in the Philippines. CEB currently runs a total of 128 frequencies and over 52,000 seats (or close to 300 flights) per week between Davao and seven key domestic and international destinations. CEB is the only carrier that links Davao to four Philippine destinations (Bacolod, Cagayan de Oro, Iloilo, and Zamboanga). It also recently became the only Philippine carrier with international operations out of Davao, when it launched twice weekly Davao – Singapore flights last December 2015. The airline added a third frequency between Davao and Singapore this April 2016, three months after the route was launched, to cater to growing travel demand.

Meanwhile, CEB also operates two other non-stop domestic routes – Manila-Davao and Cebu-Davao, where it currently holds 51% seat share and 61% seat share, respectively, according to internal estimates. "Cebu Pacific remains committed to contributing to the local trade and tourism agenda in Davao, by offering the lowest year-round fares for flights to and from this gem of a tourist destination. Davao has emerged as one of our most popular destinations, with an average of 44,000 passengers flown weekly," says CEB President and CEO Lance Gokongwei. CEB's passenger volume to and from Davao remains robust, with over 2.15 million passengers carried from January to December 2015. This presented a 4% growth compared to the same period in 2014. These encouraging figures continue into the first quarter of 2016, as CEB flew close to 570,000 passengers from January to March this year – a 13% increase year-on-year.

The airline's cargo volume to and from Davao likewise yielded strong results, with the Davao market accounting for more than a fifth of Cebu Pacific's total domestic cargo volume in 2015. And thanks to CEB's growing network, with CEB the only carrier providing direct flights to other key cities, cargo volumes to and from Davao grew 17% versus 2014. These figures are based on internal estimates. "We look forward to helping boost more business and leisure opportunities for the people of Davao, and to enabling more travelers to explore this vibrant Southern capital," added Gokongwei. Aside from Davao, CEB also operates flights out of five other strategically placed hubs in the Philippines: Manila, Cebu, Clark, Kalibo, and Iloilo. The airline's extensive network covers over 90 routes and 64 destinations, spanning Asia, Australia, the Middle East, and USA. CEB's 57-strong fleet is comprised of 7 Airbus A319, 36 Airbus A320, 6 Airbus A330, and 8 ATR 72-500 aircraft.

Between 2016 and 2021, CEB expects delivery of two more brand-new Airbus A320, 30 Airbus A321neo, and 16 ATR 72-600 aircraft. For bookings and inquiries, guests can visit or call the reservation hotlines (+632)7020-888 or (+6332)230-8888.
