Best airlines to the Philippines

my mrs booked to clark last oct--but she was met by a hired car--shared with her sister and another cousin 2000pp each from there to la union ( say £90 ) but she prefers manila because she knows her way around the place. she buses it from there.

Yer we normally pay 2500 to go Angeles from manila I always use the same bloke we got his number then last time I went January it was 3000.. Then coming back to manila I done the bus for the 1st time I was dreading it but It was surprisingly a good journey abit slow leaving Angeles but on the highway it was straight through I'll definitely go back to manila buy bus but when I land there I'd rather just get there after the long flight

I'm going to try going to Clark it's £200-300 cheaper but about 2hrs longer flight from Heathrow direct but no taxi it seems like a winner

2-300££ cheaper than what ?

I normally fly pal direct to manila but the flight is now £721 for the dates I want but going to Clark with Cathay it's £552 and if I do that I don't need the 2500 + taxi fair

i'm finding cathay pacific prices under £500 to manila with skyscanner for april-may. my wife is going over for 3 weeks.

Thanks for that I'll have to check again I finish half day on Friday so I was looking for a 4-5pm flight cheers mate

Thursday 19.04 return 10.5 Cathay £466

guys i think ive managed to get flight with PAL for 660 may 5 to may 28, i say think because i had problems last night with
sky scanners it was coming up with one price then when you try to book it goes up, i even did one id entered all my details and at the end it said unsuccessful, so i phoned them to check what had happened and it had basically wasn't the right price to start with as it had gone up £850, even the next lowest price and 3rd lowest did the same but didn't let me get as far as paying for them before it increased the price.
however this morning i tried again through sky scanners and it came up with £660 through a company called travel trolley, and seems to have worked as they have took payment and sent through an e ticket so fingers crossed its all ok .

sounds about right. the word " from" applies to ticket prices.

@bigmac I'm hoping its all ok as they have sent me the e tickets and taken payment

youve scored

I've used Travel Trolley before , all good and no problems . I nearly always use sky scanner to book my flights , but recently found a better price on Apodo , so I look there and compare now .

@OTT that’s reassuring to know, I was surprised because a lot of the other companies was around £800

I have gone with travel trolley before and had no problems. Only had to go online to the airline for online check in and choose my seat.
Given the options available for your travel dates I would have taken the cathy Pacific price and flown with them. Much more comfortable flight than with PAL

kayak for those dates are offering Cathay at £556 or with a long lay over China Southern at £456

Tbh I don’t find the pal is uncomfortable I’m quite short so find leg room not a problem and they now using a 777 which seems a little bit more , I don’t mind to pay abit extra to get there direct and faster, but they were showing a lot more than 660 , it is the most I’ve paid for flying that route with them

Cathay pacific do they have wifi? Someone said they do but I'm not seeing it on the flight details

Yes I'm thinking the same I think I'm going to try Cathay pacific it was cheaper and had a short stop off where are you going in the Philippines if you don't mind me asking

We normally stay around Manila for few days then head to camiling where my gf is from , we stay at her parents house
