Vice Ganda has given fans a glimpse of his busy schedule, as he rode a helicopter in between work commitments so he would arrive at his shows on time.

The comedian took fans with him on the adventure he had after hosting the noontime show “It’s Showtime,” when he had to come to a show in Quezon Province on the same day, as seen on his YouTube vlog yesterday, April 7.

Vice Ganda boarded the helicopter at ABS-CBN’s helipad, then landed at a grassy open field near a resort where he prepared for his show at the province. He also showed an aerial view of the places he passed by on his helicopter ride.

“After ‘Showtime’ live, didiretso tayo ng Quezon (we go straight to Quezon),” he explained. “Dahil ‘di tayo aabot (Since we won’t make it in time), we have to find a way and the best way is to ride the helicopter. Let’s go!”

According to Vice Ganda, it would take him hours if he had opted to travel by land, compared with the minutes-long flight via helicopter.

“Going to Quezon, mga 20 minutes lang kasi kung magla-land tayo, mga three and a half hours. ‘Di tayo aabot,” he told fans. (Going to Quezon is only about 20 minutes long, but if we went by land, that would be around three and a half hours. We won’t make it.)

The following day, Vice Ganda took another helicopter ride back to ABS-CBN so he could do another live show for “It’s Showtime.” Despite his tiring schedule, the comedian said he still had other tasks to do, which he was ready to take on.

“Pagod na pagod na ang katawang lupa natin. Kailangan na din natin magpahinga,” he said. “Pagod na ako so we sleep then we work again.” (We’re so tired. We need to rest. I’m tired so we sleep, then we work again.)

Aside from his current shows, Vice Ganda may be appearing in movies soon as he recently hinted at his comeback, after two years of not appearing on the big screen.  /ra
