    Hey @spongegab,
    Nagbook ako 2 weeks ago:
    Manila-singapore-adelaide(Singapore airlines economy 1way) May 22, 2015.
    2 adults, 1 child. 30kg each. Us$1,540.

    Dahil walang direct flight to ADL from MNL, Gusto ni misis hatiin yung flight time equally as much as possible para may pahinga(5hrs nga e..) At saka comfort & good service was prioritized rather than price.

    Kung tipid talaga pwede siguro Cebpac to SYD, then connect to ADL. Or Jetstar to SIN, then connect to ADL.

    Thanks @dwayti, ayos yang nakuha mo pre. I'll check singapore airlines as well. Na-try mo rin IOM, Qantas or Jetstar? Nakakatakot kumuha ng budget airlines ngayon hehehe. See you sa adelaide pre, sa May ka rin pala. Nakapag-PDOS ka na?

    @spongegab Oo nga no! Hindi ko na naisip yung IOM...Qantas ay halos pareho lang ng presyo ng SQ, pero yung trips at nahahati sa 8hrs & 2.5hrs. Baka kasi mangawit yung binti ni kumander :D tadyakan pa ko. Hindi na kami tumingin ng budget airlines para may meals nang kasama...April or May pa kami mag PDOS pagkauwi namin galing SG. Ikaw?

    @dwayti, kami pre ni misis baka anytime this month or next month na mag-PDOS. Check ko with IOM baka makamura ng konti. Sabi dito sa forum may additional baggage allowance daw kung sa IOM kukuha at sa qantas din daw sila nakuha. Tama pre na singapore airlines ka na, one of the best airlines yan, tsaka baka may naiipon ka na rin miles going back and forth sa sg :)

    @netzkeenet, sabi sa website ng cebupac they are 55% on time last dec. Pwede na siguro to kung sydney na ang final destination mo, pero kung may connecting flight ka pa at few hrs lang ang difference medyo tagilid ka dyan, baka maiwan ka pa :)

    @taz baka magkasabay pa tayo from SG-ADL, anong day ang flight nyo? Luckily, may friend yung friend ko na pwede namin tirahan while looking for a more permanent place.

    Kayo, paano kayo hanap ng house? Sabi sakin sa realestate.com.au & domain.com.au daw trustworthy yung mga ads.

    Hi @taz mura na yan nakuha mong plane ticket. Kami via qantas nakapagbooked. Nagrequest ako to increase baggage allowance to 40 kgs, pumayag naman sila, applicable lang to for 1st time migrant. Wala pa kami nakukuhang accommodation, 1 month before we leave maghahanap na kami.

    Hi @dwayti, good thing may accommodate na kayo.

    See you all in adelaide! Good luck sa tin :)

    Hi @ava_garde06, I availed the shuttle service from the airport to CBD 2 years ago. There's a waiting booth at the arrival area. Ok naman sya.. Nagantay lang ng konti kasi may schedule sila ng departure, siguro para magaantay na din ng iba pang passengers. Yung nasakyan ko is a big Van. Hindi sya aircon pero it's not that hot naman nung time na dumating ako so ok lang. Yung mga nakasabay ko may mga dala ding maleta and the driver was able to arrange yung mga stuffs namin to fit sa likod ng van. They dropped me naman infront of my hotel.

    I arrived in Sydney Feb18 pala. :)
    I availed 2airport shuttle service. Total of $43 frm airport to St.Leonards suburbs. Dun sa mismo bahay na ako binaba. Life saver for me na solo traveller with heavy bags. I pre paid in their site thru paypal.
    Downside is di kami agad nagkita nun driver. Wala pa kasi ako local sim na pwede pang tawag sa kanya. 2hrs dn kasi ako late dahil haba pila immigration. He was supposed yo meet me at mcdo area nun airport. Bumalk pa sya ng van nya.
    Buti may wifi sa airport. I messaged my friend to call their hotline.
