Hi, has anyone flown Philippine Airlines recently? About a decade ago they were banned from entering Europe, since then they've purchased new planes etc and have permission to fly to Europe. Any thoughts? T.I.A, Tanuki
4 of us flying return from 31/12 and returning 24/1 to lhr for under 5k with good timing makes it very good $ wise.
I’m banking on the fact that at least 50% of pilots know to press the right buttons and that with 2 of them in the cockpit, between them they should get me there.
Yep, have flown them many times. Also, u can offer money for an upgrade at the check-in. I usually pay $150 from Singapore to Manila or Hong Kong to go from Economy to Business. A good deal.
Given how many planes you get on you don't want to start doing the "odds" game. I am just doing the stick my fingers in my ears and sing lalalalalala thing whenever I start feeling anxious on a plane.
The boss is doing a secondment in Manila later this year and I think her work has a cheapest fare policy - i.e. probably flying Phillipines. Whether she gets there or not ... well either way - winning.
Don't leave the airport, kidnapping entire families is not unusual in the Philippines. If kidnapped, negotiate a good deal with Netflix.
