You need to call the PAL hotline. and be very very patient. waiting time ko is almost 1hour bago may customer service na sumagot sakin. wala available sa website as ang naka lagay is "SOLD OUT" on those dates.

PS. Madami pa daw available na seats as per sa nag serve sakin na customer service.

Apartment hotel yan. Habang nasa hotel kayo na naka quarantine, applyan mo na sya. Since hotel sya, wala syang deposit. Advance lang. Tapos pwede sya up to 1yr. Nasa flinders lane yang hotel.

Sana wag ma lift. Ok naman ang quarantine. Libre hotel and food for 2 weeks. Malaking tulong rin lalo na dadating dito na wala pang work. Sobrang dami nga nilang food na binibigay. Mas ok na meron quarantine kasi nasasala talaga mga tao na nahawa. At pag labas mo sa community, mas safe pakiramdam.

Good luck sa mga nag-BM at sa mga naka self-quarantine. Ako na ata ang first batch na nag-self quaratine (March 16, Monday), di ko makakalimutan yun araw na yan. Halos 3 mos na rin ang lumipas. During that time, hindi pa ganun ka-organize ang self-isolation or quarantine.
