Will be in AC during February.

Whats days are you planning to visit in Feb?

I don't know if you have access to a consolidator and I don't know if I have access to one either, but my travel agent is a client of mine and she zeros out her end and calls a consolidator. I save at least $200.00 per trip from Chicago. Maybe only the travel agents have access to the consolidators. I dunno but this girl has saved me at leat $200.00 every trip.

What are you guys paying to get from the States to Manila? Out of NY or LAX I'm seeing nothing below $950+ Phil Air is up there and Cathay Pacific deal-of-the-month is no better.

Has anybody found better pricing? jack

I will be in BKK in Feb and looking at a affordable flt to CLK. I know the bad press on Cebu, however they seem to have the only direct flt.

I was on line and every time I would punch in my info it would say the site is offline. How the hell could that be, I tried all week long.

Any help please, I already know some answers will be "don't use them", however they have the only direct flts and reasonable fares. Are there any alternatives?

Thanks

I had the same problem for two days, but eventually did manage to book last Friday (and I didn't experience the credit card problems I used to experience in the past :)).
Try making your booking late at night. I made mine at 11.30 pm Phil time.
Good luck!

Hi Candid,

In a nutshell Manila is very safe. Take taxis everywhere you go. The biggest thing you have to worry about is overpaying and then it is only a matter of 1-2 dollars so it is no big deal.

Also, read thru the "reports of distinction" you will find the most informative and complete info there.

Here is a link to a report I wrote a couple of yrs ago that will sum everything up for you. (if the link doesn't work, then search my post going back for an overview of manila/makati nightlife. I spent a lot of time on it and tried to include everything.)

As far as hotels go, manila is very cheap by western standards. So if you find a 4 star for $100 per night. It will probably be one of the best you ever stayed at. Conversely if you find a 1 star for $10 per night, I can promise you it will be something out of a horror movie!

Also, almost everyone in manila speaks english, so not a concern.

Devils,

This information was spot on, and also very encouraging. Your report in the Reports of Distinction was also very informative. I am so ready to go, but would be good to have a wingman also (Dec. 10. 18). After I complete this trip I hope I can add and update your report.

Thanks

[Smokers Rule]

I will be in Manila at the end of the year...my first time. If anyone would like a wingman let me know!

4. What are the "must go to" clubs in Manila and AC to end up sleeping with a beautiful girl at the end of the night?

5. Is the red light districts safe in Manila and AC. Just like any other city?

6. Where can I get good deals if I want to sleep with a different girl every night? You know the cost can add up.

I am also looking for low cost air tix to PI from NY (. Or LAX).

Hi Jack,

I have tried to disect this every way imaginable and it comes down to a matter of save time or money.

I have found you can do it cheaper by going thru Hong Kong, Tokyo or several other Asian cities. The problem is you waste a lot of time that way waiting on connections. The fastest way to get there is fly Philiair into manila. The problem with all of this is that Filiair is the only option for direct flights from the US. And then only from the west coast. They do offer those cheap fares of $748 but as you have noted they are "teasers" and you have to book as soon as they are announced.

Good luck!

Well I have a v busy schedule but could fit in some early double dates perhaps hit a disco. Anyone ever take champagne into Juliana's or Pump? I have a couple bottles I'd like to dispose of if the corkage fee is reasonable. Happy hr at the Executive Lounge daily so if your in da hood.

Hi UP

Unfortunately I am leaving when you arrive otherwise we could, as we did last time, spend sometime comparing notes and DIA girls....

Have fun

1. Are there any areas in Manila and AC to stay away from; too dangerous?

2. What's a good hotel in Manila, with a reasonable rate, in a good location and with free wifi in the room and english speaking staff?

3. What's the best dance clubs for just dancing and drinking?

4. What are the "must go to" clubs in Manila and AC to end up sleeping with a beautiful girl at the end of the night?

5. Is the red light districts safe in Manila and AC. Just like any other city?

6. Where can I get good deals if I want to sleep with a different girl every night? You know the cost can add up.

Thank you. In the meantime I will be browsing and searching this forum and may find my answers. I'm so excited! Anyone want to meet up and monger together!

Stay far away from Tondo Manila. Same goes for Pateros. But then I doubt it would be on your agenda anyway.

If you have a wingman, do try the local bars near Domestic airport. Fun. But be aware of your surroundings at all times. Although possibly you will stick to the easier routes of P Burgos, Greenbelt and EDSA. Probably best if its your first time.

If you are young and charming, or mature and charming, or just charming easy to get gals every night. And many for free. Read the board here for tips and tricks.

I will be going to Manila alone for the first time from December 10 to December 18 and I am a bit worried about my safety. Is this place as dangerous as say New York City? My plans are to drink, and pick up a lot of girls but I don't know anything about this place, and I ain't going to read a lonely planet book. Forgive me in advance for not utilizing the search fully; I would be very grateful if y'all could share your advice for the following questions I have:

1. Are there any areas in Manila and AC to stay away from; too dangerous?

2. What's a good hotel in Manila, with a reasonable rate, in a good location and with free wifi in the room and english speaking staff?

3. What's the best dance clubs for just dancing and drinking?

4. What are the "must go to" clubs in Manila and AC to end up sleeping with a beautiful girl at the end of the night?
