General Info

When you get to airport departure which is on the upper level you will need to head along side walkgoing left facing the terminal where peaple actually are checked first before actually going into the building. Just head down sidewalk until you hit stairs going down. Go down the stairs and you will then be in arrivals! Someone will ask you if you need help (airport security) Just tell them you made wrong turn and they will tell you that your in arrivals. If you been in airport there you will know where your at and where to go once you go down stairs. The bottom of Stairs are about 50 feet away beyond where you would meet the taxi stand where you meet your party that will be on other side of rode. Make sure you get to airport before she gets there though. I have done this 3 times and worked everytime. If you have question further ask!

[QUOTE=Saphire Tonic]Oh I see-- so is there anyway whatsoever to get into the arrivals section?[/QUOTE]
Hello ST,

Welcome to the board! Yes there is a way to appear that you walked off a plane. This has worked for me a few times in the past. Here is what you do:

Get dropped off at the airport early (departure level) with your luggage of course. Staying outside, walk down to the end of the terminal building (left side as you face the building). Go down the stairs toward the arrival area. There may or may not be a policeman there. Tell him you are meeting someone who is flying in (if you are a westerner, there should be no problem) and if he refuses to let you pass, give him 100 pesos.

They will not let you in the terminal building but there is an area outside where ground transportation picks passengers up. This is before the fenced in area where the locals wait (parking lot). Have a seat at one of the benches there and set a spell. Then at the appropriate time, walk through the gate and your home free! Please report back and let us know how things worked out.

As far as CB goes, I have met about two dozen women from there and 90% have been very sweet and sincere. Although some of the women tend to stretch the truth in their profiles, this can work to your advantage.

ST, just a word of caution. The fact that she's bringing her mom is not necessarily great news. They may be expecting you to fete the entire family and you may wind up paying for two hotel rooms; one for yourself and one for mom and the lady who is meeting you. I'm not saying this is necessarily going to be the case, but based on the evidence of hundreds of other people, it could be.

I am somewhat claustaphobic and cannot fly 17 hours! The most I can do is 4-6 hours. Is there a way to hopscotch across Pacfic islands to get there? Like Hawaii, Tahiti, Fiji on to Indonesia ideas?

Thanks,

Don

Hello DD,

From the west coast you can fly LA > Honolulu > Guam > Manila with NWA and/or Continental but the second leg is close to 8 hours. PAL might have a similar route but I would never recommend anybody fly them. You might be SOL.

That's an unfortunate problem.

I've a few suggestions for you:

1) If you have the time and cash, take a cruise that gets you to somewhere in the region, the fly.
2) Go see your Doctor, explain the problem and he'll give you some tablets to knock you out. A couple of temazapam can turn a 14 hour flight into a 4 hour flight.
3) Fly business/first the extra space (due to the lack of boxes of money around ;)) should help your symptoms.
4) Hypnotherapy/meditation could help you deal with your symptoms.
5) If you are really loaded, come in a private jet/yacht - hell, I'll fly over to wherever you are to keep you company if you do that :D

So am I,but I still go. Sleep Deprivation is the only thing I use. Get up really early in morning and stay up till flight. When I am sleeping, it is a big world.

Don[/QUOTE]If you can manage 7 hours. Los Angeles to Hawaii to Guam to Philippines. The longest leg is Hawaii to Guam about 7 hours. Continental does have an island hopper between Hawaii to Guam so that 7 can be broken up if you want.

Hi,
here is what you can do. get a seat near the emergency exit, or if not avaible (cause that are the most wanted seats) isle seat or row. so if u dont feel gud u can go to cr take ur pills or whatever u do whe u alone to relax.
Consult a doc and get urself some medicine, try before if it works.

Happy hunting!!

Hi,
yes bringing the mom is alarm bell ring. Expect the unexpected LOL.

I suggest you forget the whole aiport set up. Im sure u do when you allread one week in Philippines LOL after you met tons of pretty gurls u dont worry bout that gurl so much any more, belive me.

I don tmeet any gurls I havent met before for airpirt pick up, cause aftr a 24 hours flight I need to adjust a bt, go to my hotel, freshing up and have a beer with my friend and have the FUN I LIKE!! Cause you neevr know what they up to. Filipinas think to have a gud time they bring their friends so u feel happy and enjoy, thats their wy of thinkin of havin fun and privacy. May way of thinkin havin fun , is get the gurl to my room and screw her :D.

Last time I met a gurl with her mom to pick me up started to pay 50 US for the "hired boyfren cabdriver" then we went to a place called the sigin cooks, bakla resto..stupid singing with gays...yeah that was the right thing I need after 24 hours flight heheehe. I pay again for them, they eat like they havent eaten since weeks. After one day I got bored with the gurl, other gurls were more hot and her mom allway s txt her to meet me up again to see also her husband cause her daughter is cherry...Thats another problem u have to consider, if she is innocent or she pretend to be innocent u in trouble.

Thats why I prefer to meet my dates in a place I like. anoher thing, dont wait for the gurls to met you up, some come late, some dont come at all and you there waisting ur time. And time is precious when you there.

So do your thing and txt the gurls or beter let them txt you. Meet them in a time here u dont monger, morning, lunch time etc. Evening is ur primetime, thats hwere u met up chicks or u already in ur hotel havin fun.

TRY Angeles CITY!! If you there, Im sure u give the airport thing a total miss and Im sure u even wont go back to Manila to met her up LOL.

If your first timer in PI you will see the real meaning of TRAFFIC :D.

So my advise for you, explore Manila for a night or 2, you find plenty of info where to go and where to stay budgetwise.
Then go to swagman hotel ermita and take fly the bus to Angels city. What to do there and where to stay also plenty of info on the board.

If you do this, you allways in control of things and not the gurls. for most of them ur a walking ATM, thats ok, cause most of the gurls for me are just for fun also. I treatthem gud and with respect, but if my bola2alert rings, Im off in a secound, cause time is money :D

I also will met gurls from sites. I met her with her auntie in mall of asia, one day after I arrive. Not been there yet so its agud thing. She is a stunner, thats why its ok to show up with her auntie. if she wants only shopping, I will disappear :D

Happy hunting!!

"just like you can take the girl out of the bar but you cannot take the bar out of the girl"
I would add you can take the girl away from the family but cannot keep the family away from the girl.
1. It is a bad idea to meet the family if you not serious in settling in philippines.
2. It is bad enough the girl thinks of you as a walking , fucking ATM but the whole family thinking of you as an ATM is worse.
3. The whole cultural experience of meeting the local people is nothing to write home about.
4. The girls consider it a priviledge to tell their family everything about you like how much money you give her, presents you bought etc. They already know all this before you meet them.
5. Never ever socially bond with the family and if you do you will be sorry with all kinds of demands which i will leave it to your imagination.
6. your welfare is secondary as far as the girl is concerned.

[QUOTE=FireWalker]I think that is odd, too. I thought the $10000 rule was in CASH.[/QUOTE]
The $10000 can be any combination of US currency, foreign currency, travelers checks, etc. It is legal to be carrying sums over $10k, they just want you to report it. That reporting information will be forwarded to the IRS for determination whether you owe taxes on it. Of course you should be prepared to explain it to both the Border people and to the IRS. But it's legal as long as you report it.

If you go to [url]http://help.cbp.gov[/url], you will see a list of common questions. Type "currency" into the search field to narrow the questions down, you will see that the first question that comes up is "How much currency / money / monetary instruments can I bring into the U.S.?"

I have 2 girlfriends in Phils, both in Mindanao. 1, I've known since 2002. The other I just visited in April, but have known her since December. Never yet have I had monetary demands made on me. Ate some bad food last trip and wound up in the hospital with amoeba. My honey was always by my side. Her mom and auntie would take turns staying over night also. They had to sleep on a lousy slab of wood.

If you're there just to "sleep around", it would be best to find girls who travel solo. We all know the younger 1's(well most of them) have chaperones. It's the Filapina way.

Going waaaaay offtopic - sorry.

It is worth noting that if you click on that link directly, in the cbp.gov webserver logs, there will be a record of the fact that you went to their site from [url]http://www.internationalsexguide.org[/url]

I am guessing with the way big brother is over there you might not want any government agency to know you were looking at this site.

For reference, this is a general rule, if website 1 has a link to website 2 and you click on that link, the guys who run website 2 will be able to see that you came to them from website 1.

The way around this is to copy the link, then paste it into your browser (thereby going to it directly rather than clicking on a link to get there).
