Biyaheng Langit is aired back-to-back with its companion show Kasangga Mo ang Langit every Saturday at 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm PST over RJDigiTV and is produced by Heavenly Images Productions for Television, Inc.
The show has been hosted by Rey Langit following his failed senatorial bid in the 1998 Presidential Elections through the Partido para sa Demokratikong Reporma–Lapiang Manggagawa (Reporma–LM). His first co-hosts were the late Reyster Langit, who died of heart failure due to cerebral malaria, a disease he contracted in Palawan while he was on assignment,[1] and Sarah Balabagan, who was known for her trial in the United Arab Emirates. They were replaced by Reyster's surviving brother, Reynante "JR" Langit, Jr.
History[]
Biyaheng Langit was first aired on RPN from April 8, 2000 to March 10, 2007. Rey Langit, who had an unsuccessful senatorial bid in the 1998 Presidential Elections through the Partido para sa Demokratikong Reporma–Lapiang Manggagawa (Reporma–LM) two years ago, was joined by his late son Reyster Langit[2] and Sarah Balabagan.
On June 3, 2005 Reyster died of heart failure due to cerebral malaria, a disease he contracted while on assignment in Palawan for Kasangga Mo ang Langit.[3] Following his death, Rey's surviving son, JR, has since joined him not only for Biyaheng Langit but also for Kasangga Mo ang Langit.
The show moved to IBC from January 5, 2008 to September 13, 2013 and later moved to PTV from September 22, 2013 to August 31, 2019 and later moved to RJTV from September 7, 2019 to present.
