    Booked through IOM:

    Airline: Qantas
    Airfare: Php 27,000
    Departure Date: Feb 19, 2013
    Destination: Sydney

    Halos magkasunod pala tayo aalis, @nylram_1981.

    I checked tigerairways for the same date, kung may double baggage allowance (23kg x 2bags) and food, etc. halos same na lang din yung price so I opted to get yung offer ng IOM.. Solo lang kasi ako, as much as possible gusto ko direct flight na saka comfortable. =)

    ako naman we inquire sa IOM pero mas cheaper pa din ng 20k ang nasa skyscanner

    eto ang samin:
    Airline: Malaysia Airlinee
    Airfare: Php 78,000+ (2adults, 2kids)
    Departure Date: Feb 20, 2013
    Destination: Sydney
    To be honest, I don't want to discredit IOM but it seems like mejo mas mahal ang sa kanila...

    The only advantage daw is may added luggage - but then again, there are really some airlines that would extend first time immigrants with additional luggage allowance. I myself, yung sa aming ticket, we were only allowed 20kg per pax but I told SQ that I am a first time migrant and they gave me an additional 10kg per pax.

    Just my 2 cents; what IOM can say they can arrange to give, you can also ask that yourself even if you bought your tickets straight from the airline company itself.

    korek ka. sa totoo lng onti lng difference ng IOM vs ikaw didirecta sa qantas.

    kami naman, i dont add na for additional luggage kasi 20kgs each kami. eh 4 naman kami, so that's 80kgs. puro damit lng naman dala namin.

    Maam, try ninyo po to contact someone sa Malaysian Airline - you can also prolly visit their office here sa Philippines and ask for additional baggage allowance as first time migrants. feeling ko bibigay naman sila. malay mo dagdagan ka ng additional 10kg per pax so additional 40kg na iyan sa inyo. :)

    although nakakatakot dahil budget airline, the cheap rate was too hard to resist. pagdarasal na lng nmn na hassle free ang first flight to land down under

    Don't worry @olan... I have flown Air Asia X to Melbourne and it was okey! Not that comfy but for the steep price discount versus legacy carriers, pwede na! :)

    hello sa inyo,

    im planning ko have my initial entry on April 13. Nabasa ko thread na to ung IOM. Bigla ako na curious kung pwede ko i avail ung assistance na binibigay nila, kahit na initial entry lang ang gagawin ko?

    @psychoboy, I'm also planning to use my miles sa SQ. Question, nagbibigay ba sila ng extra baggage allowance for first time migrants? If ever, sino po contact nyo dito sa office sa makati for inquiries?Thanks!

    They just gave me +5 kilos per person; what I did was call their hotline and they asked me to draft a letter of request which I sent via email...

    Total namin ng wife ko is 25 kilos per pax.
