    Finally got our ticket - April 3 via SQ

    MNL - SIN - MEL

    I was able to get it for around 7500 each; I paid tax and utilized the Krisflyer miles I had accumulated during the past 4 year here in Singapore.

    At least one thing off our mind na! :)

    @kenkoy, you can buy a coffeemaker here for as low as $12.00 yun nga lang hindi branded. Pero we bought water boiler for only $9 and bread toastser ($9) (home brand from K Mart), more than 2 years na sa amin e in good condition pa rin naman. If I were you, I would replace those appliances with your other belongings na mas importante sa inyo. Kung dadalhin nyo yang mga appliances nyo, you still have to buy power adapters which is around $10 each.

    @psychoboy bale for may excess baggage allowance $90 (paid online) + $120 (paid at NAIA qantas). $210 in total. one of the 4 of my 23kilos weighed 28. heheh! i was not asked to pay the excess anymore. i am sure the other 3 luggages weighed more than 23. siguro natyempuhan ko ung mga mababait na staff or napuna nila ako na ultra mukhang pagod na pagod na.

    @johnandjosh & @icebreaker1928 thank u for the concern. i am not worried about the power adapter for my turbo. my son has a few w/c i can use for the 2 appliances. my turbo is really impt to our nutrition & comfort. ihagis mo lang sa loob ang seasoned meat/vegies/fish, turn on the timer, bingo! may meals na kami. kanin & soup na lang. hahahah!

    more cuento pag pahingado na.
