Philippine Airlines on Thursday presented the items Pope Francis used aboard the PAL flights that took him from Manila to Tacloban and back last Saturday, as well as the flight that took him back to Rome on Monday.

At a press conference in the PAL office in Pasay City, the airline displayed itinerary printouts identifying the pontiff as "Sua Santita Papa Francesco (Mr)," a passenger in Business Class on board the Airbus 320-214 that flew to Leyte on January 17 and the Airbus 340-313 that took off for Rome Ciampino Airport on January 19.

Also included in the airline's display were the pillows the pontiff used during those flights.

The meals the Pope had on board were recreated as well. These included meriendas of arroz caldo and dinuguan with buttered puto.
