I don't think they run these days. The big buses are not bad.

I would not rely on airline / airport staff who often get the passports (and therefore v isa requirements) of the PLR of China and the Republic of China (Taiwan) refused. Also, some Western fascist countries ask you to propduce cash. But some travellers from some countries eg Japan have been refused for having plastic.
I've been pulled for having no check in luggage and I explain to them I do not see heck in luggage when entering or exiting the Philippines as they are crooks.

Related note; when booking flights I use meta searches (Kayak.com, Google Flights) to find the best deal and then I go direct to the airline site to book the same flight (s).

Hotel Management made a decision to let AGODA handle their entire reservation system. These hotels are in essence throwing up their hands and saying we cannot manage reservations for our hotel. IMHO this is extraordinarily bad management and they lose money by doing this.
That does not mean you should not stay there. Some of these small hotels can be perfect for the Monger. But you got to do extra leg work to make a reservation.

Having said that, tread carefully because if you piss them off, then you are going nowhere.

"I am NOT in Philippines drinking with Westy. Honey I am in Scotland golfing!" Of course now you must photoshop some fake pics of yourself on the green.

Does anyone know if the 'Fly The Bus' or 'Southern Cross' buses are still operating? Are there any foreigner buses that travel back and forth from AC to Manila? Or Subic? I know the public buses are still running.

Posts: 85Entry Into Philippines
The best source for current entry requirements is YOUR AIRLINE. Think about it, airlines move tens of thousands of people into the Phils, including their own employees. Airlines MUST have these details correct and up to the minute.
I have found that even official Philippines websites to be out of date (WTF? Certainly, do not rely on information here or on any other website. Do your own homework.
My requirements (09/2022) were;.
1) ONE HEALTH PASS; You must sign up within 72 hours of departure. Covid vaccination proof required. Fill out the online form (5 minutes if your information is assembled) and you will get a QR code instantly.
2) PROOF OF COVID VACCINATION.
3) EXIT FLIGHT FROM PHILS (more on this below).
Philppines requires that you hold an exit airline ticket from Phils. This ticket should depart WITHIN 30 DAYS of arrival. Otherwise some jerk might hassle you.
Best to PRINT 1) and 2) and 3), highlight key details, encase in plastic sheets. This makes it look like you know what you are doing.
Pro tip; I notice that people who put 1) and 2) and 3) on their phone instead of actually printing it all really slowed down the line. Of course, you carry a backup copy on your phone.
RECENT COVID TEST; not required.
HEALTH INSURANCE; not required.
PROOF OF STRONG MORAL CHARACTER; fortunately, not required.
In my case, I have no definite plan on leaving Phils so I did book a one way ticket into the Phils. I know of two options to produce an exit ticket.
ONWARDTICKET.COM
This worked for me. I 'rented' a REAL airline ticket out of the Phils. The $14 ticket is good for 48 hours, you can get a ticket good for two weeks for $63. Site is easy to use. Best to make sure this booking is on an airline that is not easy for a gate agent to check (NOT the gate agent's own airline or affiliate). Onwardticket.com gave me a ticket to BKK through Seoul on JEJU AIR.
JEJU AIR? WTF I thought, did I just get scammed? No, It IS a real Korean Airline. I have never heard of them. No way a busy gate agent can run that down. Perfect!
FAKE TICKET SITES.
There are several of these around. You provide all the details and you get a total fake ticket printed. I did not think their sample ticket looked authenticate enough. I got about halfway through the process, the site was difficult to use, and my spidey-senses made me think I was being phished. One of my friends has success with these sites. Sorry no details.

Former Front Office Manager here.
Most high class hotels (5 star), and with a management team that knows how to use their brain will more then likely be ok and smart enough to price match directly at the hotel so they can avoid paying commission to 3rd party booker's. If their reservation manager isn't lazy, they will communicate and lower the blocked room count with the 3rd party so they can use the room. 3rd party sites are required to provide xxx number of rooms per month / year anyways so unless it's sold it's a loss for both.
4 star and belows. Up to luck. They might match. They might not care and not want to work and just make you book via 3rd party so less work for them.
If your trying to book on same date and it's impossible as day has carried over to next day (midnight per se), take an initiative to snap shot the price you saw before and ask if they can price match. If the reception is lazy and declines (which is a loss of revenue for them), go ahead and leave them a. Ice slap of a review on trip advisor or whatever site they use for benchmarking, so that their FOM or GM can see the team isn't interested in making money and turning away walk in guests. See if that changes attitude of the establishment in few days LOL.
