Posts: 250Awesome. We will expect a detailed report shortly after you arrive and then I book my tickets. It's about time. I suspect the good times will return soon.

I tried booking online within minutes of getting the news on Friday morning, like the well-trained monger that I am. The PAL website kept rejecting my credit card so I tried another but with no success.
I called the 800 number to PAL and was on hold for about 90 minutes. Finally, I heard a deliciously sweet Filipina voice say ' can I help you sir?' LOL.
I managed to get a round trip ticket from JFK on Feb 16 for $2624 which included $240 for bulkhead seats.
I know. Its a lot of money but life is short and its already been two years. I also remember from the December fiasco that the prices of tickets were still high even months out, so bit the bullet.
Ok. Let the flaming begin.

There is a test requirement 48 hours before departure. I would wait till that requirement is off.

The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) Resolution 159, approved on January 27, provides that fully vaccinated foreigners from non-visa required countries must present a passport valid for at least six months, return or outbound ticket to their country of origin, and their proof of vaccination verified through IATF-approved means.
They will be required to present a negative RT-PCR test taken within 48 hours prior to departure from the country of origin.
Upon arrival in the Philippines, they will no longer be required to observe mandatory facility-based quarantine and should instead self-monitor for any signs or symptoms within seven days with the date of arrival as their first day.
Fully vaccinated arriving travelers are required to coordinate with the local government units of their destination upon the manifestation of symptoms.
Children 12 years old and below who cannot be vaccinated should follow the quarantine protocol of their adult companion.
The non-visa required countries are listed under the Executive Order 408, series of 1960.

Posts: 6410Will it be no quarantine and, more importantly, no antigen / PCR test upon arrival?
Flights are likely expensive now so will wait a month for airlines to start adding flights to Manila.

I'd also keep a close eye on Airbnb's and their wordings on who can enter the condo. No use making a trip if they won't allow girls to visit your room.

Also, as you point out the conditions of entry are not fully explained. Will a period of quarantine or testing be required? What constitutes fully vaccinated and how is that evidenced?
My vaccination card documents that I have been fully vaccinated yet this standard issued card can easily be forged.
More cogitation needs to be done.

Posts: 499Hmm, if flight cost are correct.
Quick check Paris-Manila and back: 1200 euros. At best.
Need to wait a little bit more.

Effective on or about 10 February foreigners are going to be welcome here again, so I am guessing that a lot of guys will start packing.

Posts: 4051For whatever this is worth, the Government of the Philippines released a statement today saying that, effective 16 February, all foreigners entering the country will be required to show proof of full vaccination. There is no mention in the announcement of tourists being allowed to enter, nor does the announcement stipulate what's meant by "full vaccination. ".
