- A man boarded the Manila-to-Cebu leg of the flight under the alias "Armaldo Forlani."
- He assembled a bomb in the lavatory, using components hidden in his shoes and a modified Casio Databank watch.
- The explosive was liquid nitroglycerin, carried in a contact lens fluid bottle, indistinguishable from a toiletry item.
- He set the timer for four hours and placed the device in the life vest pocket under seat 26K.
- After landing in Cebu, he disembarked with domestic passengers, leaving the bomb behind for the international flight to Tokyo.
