Tawag po kayo sa hotline nila. Hihingan lang kayo ng details ng mga passengers and then they will send an email with your booking reference for waitlist po.

Wala pa kaming confirmed flight @hotecson. Eyeing on Sep 12 sana manila-brisbane pero wala pang confirmation from them e.
As per their ticketing office in Makati, 2 lang daw flights nila sa system going to Brisbane this month which is Sep 3 & 12. So I'm thinking na after makalipad siguro ng Sep 3 tska sila magco-confirm ng for Sep 12 flights. Mabilisan lang afaik ang mangyayaring confirmation.
They have other flights pa going to Melbourne and Sydney pero mas okay daw mag quaratine sa Brisbane kasi eased na din restrictions nila.
Anong state ba kayo bro?

Bro, Aug 25 kami nagpa wait list. Just today, naconfirm na flight namin to Brisbane on Sep 12.
I think mas okay na sa ticketing office ka mag follow up if you already have the booking reference number para mas real time update. Punta ka sa nearest office para mag inquire. Ganun kasi ginawa namin.

Hello po, confirmed po ba flight niyo ng Sept 19? Nagpawaitlist ako sa October flights ng PAL going to Sydney. Via ticketing office din kayo nakasecure ng ticket?
Joined: Nov 07, 2019
@ennazul Yes, kakarating lng namin yesterday. Hmm, pumunta kmi sa Naia T2, kasi halos 1 month na rin kami tumatawag, same lng din sagot sa hotline. Although same din advise sa amin sa Ticketing office, nakiusap tlga kami.. fortunately nakahanap kasi ako work at belong sya sa essential worker, kaya nag request ako travel cap exemption, tingin ko yun ang nakatulong sa amin kasi hiningan kmi documents. Sa flight, onti lng kmi ng drop sa Sydney (12 persons) pero sa melbourne almost 30+ cgro sila, and napansin ko lang na halos mga citizens na kasabay namin. Kaya cgro mejo nafufully book agad ang Sydney/Melb flights.
