    - If traveling with family (you may claim for all members of family/paid ticket)
    - voucher expiry is 1 year if I remember it correctly. Read the T&C

    @atchino Medyo naguluhan ako, sabi kasi dun sa eligibility sa site nila:

    Singapore Airlines or SilkAir customers whose point of origin, as stated in their e-ticket, is either Europe, Africa, South America, China, India, Indonesia, Australia or New Zealand. This includes any of the following countries:...

    Ibig sabihin if you booked a one-way flight from Manila to Australia (transit in Sg), di ka entitled sa $40 voucher?

    Wala ang Phil sa point or origin. Hindi eligible kung galing ka pinas. Better if you cal them up to inquire kahit wala ka pang plane ticket entertain nila yung inquiry mo.

    Nasubukan ko na sydney-SG-sydney a couple of yers ago.

    tpos yung kaiibgan namin this year sydney-sg-sydney / naka pag claim sila ng $40 voucher pinambili ng chokolate pasalubong.

    To avoid fraudulent transactions and to protect credit card owners, PAL reserves the right to require that the credit card used in purchasing the ticket(s) online be presented at the ticket collection point, upon check-in or in cases of reissuance, rebooking or refund of a ticket.
    ...
    Virtual credit cards are NOT accepted as form of payment as we may require the actual presentation of the credit card used online.


    Any comments? Thanks!
    Based from experience ko sa PAL, San Francisco to Manila flight, hinanapan ako nung CC na ginamit.. Na-misplace ko yung card sa mga bags ko, ayaw talaga akong icheck-in..

    Pati snapshot ng internet banking nung CC ayaw nila i-honor.

    Nung nahanap lang namin yung card saka kami chineck-in.

    So I think ganun din sila magiging kahigpit kung Pinas manggaling yung flight.

    Hi just want to share my experience flying to Sydney back and forth thru Cebupacific. Got the ticket in promo 15k two way MNL-SYD only this October. Naginitial entry muna ako need to go back in Pinas and next year be moving in AU hakot gamit na. Ok naman cebu pacific on that route, bago yun plane and I got to fly there for a very low price ticket. Smooth naman ang travel may delay nga lang sa flight but I don't mind basta bring me there safe and the price is so far from other airline. Pareho lang naman din ang airline na gamit ng Cathay, Singaporean and want as A330 rin like cebu pacific. Why am I saying this is because I find myself na ok naman sumakay ng cebupac on long haul supportahan sana natin ang cebu PAC para kung gusto man natin umuwi ng Pinas hindi mabubutas bulsa natin. Natulungan pa natin ang economy ng bansa natin. Ang lapit lang ng AU sa pinas pwede mag short visit basta ang fare abot kaya kaya support po natin ang route ng cebupac MNL SYD baka later meron na rin MNL MEL. At sa next trip ko to SYD sasakay ulit ako sa cebupac :D

    Question. I need to book a round trip ticket for my mother in law because ihahatid nya dito kids ko. So yung kids is one way lang. But doing it online seems na hindi ako pwede mg book ng separate para sa kids without an adult. Gusto ko sana rountrip na yung sa adult (cheaper) then one way sa mga kids. Anyone done this? How to go about it? Or do I really have to book 2 single trips sa maghahatid?

    @jantox, get a two seater para hindi kayo masikip if you are two passenger with one kid para d nakakaistorbo sa katabi, ok naman normal lang like the usual a330 usually din hindi naman sya Punuan like going back 200 passenger lang. The best is to seat at two seater para d masyado masikip.

    guys, do you know if qantas and SIA lang ang may direct flight from Ph to Adelaide?
    I checked Jetstar kse halos 22hrs flight and ang mahal. Share naman ng experience dyan. Thanks.

    Nope... Wala...

    If Singapore Airline, dadaan ka ng Singapore...

    If Qantas naman, dadaan ka either sa Sydney or Melbourne...

    @manofsteel one way lang po pero 3 na kami dyan..30kg lang po yung regular baggage allowance ng qantas pero nagrequest ako ng additional, kaya naging tig 40kgs kami ni hubby at 10 kg kay baby plus hand carry pa na tig 7 kami ni hubby tapos may free items na pwede icheck-in si baby like stroller. Sa qantas po pwede magrequest pag 1st time migrants ng additional baggage. Mageemail lang po ng request along with visa, passport and e-ticket.

    @bookworm @manofsteel @angelwheng - I have been monitoring price tickets in various websites, 3rd party (Kayak, Skyscanner, etc) at yung airline sites mismo; I also did an email alert for price changes..

    Malaysia Airlines thru Kayak/SkyScanner and Qantas thru their website ang mga pinakamurang flights to Sydney / Melbourne from Manila / HongKong / ShangHai. Di muna kami mag MU so we are leaning towards Qantas. Mas mura pa ng konti ang Qantas sa std price ng Cebu actually (to Sydney).

    Di kami Manila manggaling pero consistent na mura sa website ng Qantas magbook but for other airlines try using Kayak or Skyscanner.

    God bless sa "Da Move".

    a, nakabili na ako ng ticket ko several months ago hehe.
    I mentioned the PAL thing kasi you can only avail of the 50% thing if you go there this weekend, I think. It cannot be done online. So it might be an option for those In PH next week.
