    Still feeling rough, went to the main hospital this morning for a covid-19 test. Went to triage to give some information, said I have to go to the respiratory dept to see a certain doctor but the doctor was doing home calls and would be back later. after waiting out side for 2 hours I went home. I thought you could take a test without having to see a doctor!
    Only in the Philippines.

    Don't know how they do testing there but you should not have to wait for a doctor to do it :(

    Been told to isolate in the house, that's what I'v been doing for 2 years. It's this dry cough and shortness of breath, and dry mouth in the morning. I will be okay had 2x shots of sinovac.
    Wife must be asymptomatic. She has been told to keep in the house too.

    Good to know Jim, I felt sick in my stomach reading your news earlier.

    Keep an eye on yourself, take care Jim.

    Just had a look at flights to the Phils.

    KLM cheapest deal for Christmas from say the 10th through to mid January more than £2000 out and over £1000 for the return on the dates I want :(

    Three grand for an economy flight :(

    There are some airlines still flying at better rates but even Emirates is two grand for a return on the dates I would want.

    Looks like the Taiwan route is gone KLM are flying to MNL via Bangkok now.

    That is bad news.
    Does anybody have a link showing what is happening over there now?

    £2,000 for a return ticket at Xmas.
    That must double what it used to be.

    I remember getting a return ticket for £400 back in early 2008 :rolleyes:

    Late Jan through to March Emirates has flights at £1284 a bit better but still not great.

    My last return flight at the closing of 2019 cost about £600.

    The airlines will have to be reasonably priced to get more bums on seats.
    Maybe lots of planes are still mothballed.
