I have been to AC a few times and had great times and a lot of GFE, but was wondering if any one has suggestions about getting PSE type if service like the type available from the soi 24 massage places in Bangkok. Specific bars or specific ladies would be greatly appreciated. I like them curvy.
I will be traveling to Angeles City in May, I went there for the first time last year. I didn't care for the drive thru all the traffic in Manilla. Do most travelers from the US that are just going to Angeles City go by way of Manilla or do the majority land at Clark International. I read that the immigration officials at Clark are really bad. Any help / opinions would be appreciated.

And all the flights to the Philippines from Tokyo go to Manila. One alternative I see is if you get a flight from the US going to Seoul. From there you can transfer to a direct flight to AC. Depending on your connection time, I'm sure you will come out better taking a taxi or bus from Manila.

Now, it appears your best bet would be Asiana who has flights from New York JFK, LAX, and SFO to Seoul. As far as prices and stopover times, you're on your own there buddy. A bus or taxi ride may not be so bad after all. It's not like you have to do the driving.

Of course going via Clark is easier but depending where your coming from Manila may be the only option. I've never had any problems with immigration at either entry, however clark can get busy if your plane arrives just after another one you may be stuck there for a hour.

Airlines that fly from US to SG are Sing Air, United and Delta. I recommend Sing Air.

There are four flights per week leaving from Hong Kong to Clark and back. I travel that route and there is very little layover time before my connecting flights. Also, the immigration officials are no better or worse than Manila.

I then fly Cebu Pacific to Cebu for a few days then Clark. I've never had any problems with Clark officials. Just say mabuhay and smile.

Fare tend to be higher if you choose to go to Clark.
I have flown from US with many airlines. For example if you fly Singapore airlines you stop over in Singapore. Cathay stop will be in Hong Kong. US airlines fly via Tokyo. My favorite is United via Hawaii and Guam to Manila.
This is mainly because of my status with them and get upgraded all the time.
Manila to Angeles transport is not bad if you use Swagman shuttle.
Best thing to do is look at all the sites to get the best fare. No point in spending too much money irrespective of what stops they make. All the airlines are pretty good especially on long haul.

They have flight that land at Clark / Angeles (CRK) from the US with a short layover at Doha International Airport. As far as customs in Clark, I was waived through and it took me all of 45 seconds to clear customs upon my arrival. I'm still here so I can't attest to how it is going out. Hope this info helps, enjoy your trip!

Suggeston would be to take non-stop to Hong Kong, from there a cheap and easy in to Clark.
Stopping in Guam, Tokyo, Seoul, that sounds like something for people knocking themselves out trying to save every cent they can regardless.
I have flown into Clark, and its best served from Singapore or Bangkok. Local airlines, or Qatar and Emirates fly direct into Clark, of course from their respective hubs Qatar or Dubai. I've only done from UK so can't say anything about flights from US, but easy transit through Clark, never had any problem immigration or customs, you will be off the plane and in your hotel within 30 minutes. I have flown into Manila as well and get AC hotel) Pacific Breeze normally) to send a car, which costs about $40, and good service, but takes 2. 3 hours driving.
Hope that helps.

I have said it before, but the simplest way to check flights into and out of Clark, or any other airport come to that, is to visit the airport's own web site and check the live arrivals or departures tab, this will show who flies into Clark, where from and how often. Singapore and Bangkok are commonest flights.
