United States VP Kamala Harris Visits the Philippines
United States Vice President Kamala Harris arrives in the Philippines last November 20, 2022, with Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff to reaffirm the defense alliance with the Philippines to strengthen our economic relationship. She started her visit by meeting with President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr., as well as Vice President Sara Duterte-Carpio to discuss state matters before participating in a moderated conversation entitled “Empowering Women and Girls” with an audience of young Filipino women to demonstrate the US’ continued support for human rights and democratic values—the first event of its kind for the VP to have done overseas since taking office.
It is the honor and privilege of #AgesAviation to have been chosen to provided full ground handling service for VP Harris’s visit aboard Air Force 2, the trailing shadow aircraft and the preliminary flights of the US White House advance.
The VP flew in a C-32 a United States Air Force designation for variants of the Boeing 757 in military service. Two variants exist, filling different parts of the military passenger transport role.
Ages is equally honored to again host US Ambassador to the Philippines MaryKay Carlson, Philippine Ambassador to the US Jose Manuel Romualdez, Pasay Mayor Imelda Calixto-Rubiano, and Rep. Antonio Calixto along with other distinguished guests from the US Embassy Manila, The Malacañang Palace, Department of Foreign Affairs, and the Philippine Air Force at the private Ages lounge.
