Bicycle tourism is booming in the tourism market and exists as a means of transportation in hundreds of cities around the world. However, in the Philippines, it was only popularized after the COVID-19 pandemic caused a transportation crisis and a massive decline in tourism growth. This qualitative study determines bicyclists’ perceptions, identified bicycling problems encountered, and explores bicycling opportunities in the new normal. The study utilized a phenomenological research design with data from virtual interviews with 10 bicyclists in Metro Manila. They were identified using purposive sampling and data saturation. The findings revealed that bicycle tourism is perceived as a sustainable activity that can promote and boost a destination’s local tourism. Meanwhile, using the bicycle as means of transportation is perceived as an efficient, affordable, and sustainable mode of active transportation and provides health benefits. It was also found to bring economic opportunities like job employment and became a catalyst for bicycle- related businesses to arise. Researchers concluded that bicycling would increase with these opportunities, This will pave the way for recovery, resulting in more sustainable tourism and transportation industry in the Philippines.

They constitute 50% of the population proportion of 140 identified Filipino flight attendants from different airlines, both international and local, having 11.50% precision at a .05 significance level. A purposive type of sampling method mixed with the snowball technique was utilized in this study. In-Flight Attendant program offering, the study reveals that minor courses were rated as “highly important” specifically in Communication subjects while major courses were rated “very highly important”. Among the 29 listed major courses, Risk Management as Applied to Safety, Security, and Sanitation ranked first, followed by Global Culture and Tourism Geography, followed by Professional Development and Applied Ethics.
