To be clear, in the UK this was denied by a number of Airlines and does not have any credibility. I recall British Airways saying this was nonsense.

An update: I understand the Thai Pass and Insurance requirement is no longer needed. They do require Covid Vaccination details though.

Just got back last week from Karon Beach, it was dead / Ghost town.

Best to check the Thai Government website, as the rules have changed a lot. From what I understand, you need to apply for a Thai...

My GF from Davao has had 2 of the Chinese vaccine. She knows about the efficacy of the Western ones and is a little bit pissed that the Chinese one may not protect her and her family as well.

This matches the reporting we see in the UK, and the suggestion a booster of a different type is recommended. What we heard this week, is that 99% of the people dying are un-vaccinated. The UK is...

Worth noting, you are unlikely to be immune to all strains. My sister caught it twice working in a hospital. Recover soon NB.

A friend living in Makati has some medical issues and was prioritised, and his wife was able to jump the queue, as she accompanied him. She is much younger and has no underlying health issues. It...

I meant to reply to this some time ago. My GF has been circumcised, and we did have a conversation about her daughter and wether she planned for her to be done also. I believe she was undecided, but...

I am in the UK, and have not heard anything about this, so did a little research, and the BA aspect appears to be incorrect....

There were 5 seats on the booking. This was really a warning to others. CP's Full refund statement was quite frankly a lie. My preference is Air Asia, and that's who got us there on time. Last minute...

I had a flight from Davao to Cebu booked, to get me in mid afternoon. This was booked 4 months before we needed to fly. A few weeks before they announced a significant schedule change which would...

Even when I left, I had 3 people to see me off LOL!

There is nothing inside the airport on the ground floor. You go up, pay your Exit Tax, go through immigration and then you have a few small...

I did exactly this at Davao the other week. Checked into the Qatar Airlines flight to Doha, got my Boarding pass, paid my Airport Fee, and then left the terminal to sit in the cafe outside with my...

This was not my first trip to Davao, and I am fairly well travelled, so honestly, I had no expectations as to what should have happened.

What I asked at the front desk, is what should have...

I was back in Davao last week, and after a few days in Cebu, I was back at the Marco Polo. I always raise a glass to DS, despite never meeting him.

What was more concerning was the 6. 5 quake that...

You said in the past, that you had signed paperwork to get your Pinay out of the country. I had to do similar last year when visiting Malaysia with my GF. I suspect they thought I was might have been...

Recently returned from SG, and have been there a few times, so am familiar with all the city has to offer. And this forum has plenty of good advice. So I don't plan to repeat any of that.

This...

In my experience from July 2018, Air tickets typically have the option to pay a Travel Tax on them. We had to leave the check in line, to have our tickets checked, and no Travel Tax needed to be...

My GF lives in Davao, I'll ask her to check why all the girls are there and what the Conference key note speakers are discussing.

Possibly did not use a Taxi, but cheaper Jeepney's, this can take some time, and not always dropped off where most convenient. Also with some condo's and security, the girls may be a little shy and...

I am 5'8", 80 Kgs and White European. Not tall by any means, and I was accompanied by my GF all the while. I know how to blend in and not stick out, I also tend to dress in accordance to where I am,...

I would happily go back to Davao, I did not see any of the scare mongering issues when I was there, and my GF lives in a pretty run down area. We also went out to bars late at night. I know how to...

Thinking of surprising my GF by visiting Davao for a significant birthday for her.

What is there that would be nice to do on her birthday? She says she never really celebrates it. So I would like...

Recently returned from 4 days in Davao, stayed the first night at The Marco Polo, gave a toast to the departed Dragon Slayer, for without his forum and posts, I would have a lot less info on the...

Chocolate is relatively cheap in Europe and the US. And the girls ask, because the money that have needs to go on essentials for living not Chocolate. I recently went to Davao and my GF asked for...
