SL: Great field report. More!
Wonderful job with yer postings, for sure. Look forward to more.
Mr J, Westcoast, JP.
Thanks for your compliments. I will be posting the remaining 15 days on the Angeles thread (with a brief interlude in 'Other Towns'. Coron). You can also read the first four days on the Manila thread.
Hi All, fabulous reading all over these threads. Thanks. I have a 3. 4 day window of opportunity to indulge a bit of mongering, and my mind has recently fixed on the Phillipines, to where I have never been! (Yeah, I know!) I don't feel like constantly moving, so wonder should I just stay in Manila / Angeles, or give Cebu a try. I ask this because I have met some stunning. It seems. Mid-20 somethings on DIA from Cebu, and while nothing is promised, they are, as mentioned, stunning. So, question is, hang in Angeles and deliriously bang my balls off (as seems to be the case) or give the honeys of Cebu a shot? Other than what DIA tosses up, is Cebu worth a stay for that brief period?
Thanks in advance for all responses.

Thanks in advance for all responses.[/QUOTE]I would go to angles as AC beats the rest hands down. For a short stay, you will never run out of options.

DIA girls are not a sure thing, bar girls are. Three days goes by quickly when your having fun!
Can you fly direct to AC? If so, do it. If you plan to fly into MNL and also want to visit AC you need to review the times and travel options available to you. It might make more sense just to stay in Manila.
I personally don't have the option of a direct flight to AC, so I would go to Cebu. It's a less stressful, less congested city (than Manila) and you can much better mix the DIA with the bars. X.

Thanks in advance for all responses.[/QUOTE]You're best bet is to go to Angeles. The reason is when you have a short time like a few days, Angeles is lots of fun. I promise you will have a great time. Cebu is great but the club scene is much better in Angeles City. Enjoy your stay. I am sure you will be back, the Philippines is addicting.
Thanks to all who responded, I really appreciate all that. I can fly direct to both Angeles and Cebu, as I will be coming from Sing after a conference. (Kerist! Imagine that, from a conference in Sing to whatever awaits in Phil hahaha ya got to laugh) I am getting such good feedback from DIA Cebu gals. Fully aware of the potential snafus of course. That I might tend that way. Whichever way the dice. The undies. Finally fall, I will be sure to report back, and add my little bit to this wonderful site.
Thanks again those of you who gave me some of your good oil!

Read the FRs in the other thread. And take that advice seriously as when senior members advise AC best listen as the chances of a total mess up in Cebu with DIA girls is high IMHO. DIA girls regardless of city are very variable in quality and reliability. AC girls will give you what you want no hassles no messing around, no jeepney / taxi for 1-3 hours to meet you in Ayala etc, and then they arrive 1-3 hours late and say they must be home by 10pm.
Read the forum about DIA and you will see these comments have validity and substance

Can you fly Singapore to Clark daily? I'm guess you've already done your homework on this. What is the flight time? Have fun! X.

Always helpful for people like me but the site does not cover all airline so more homework should be done gentlemen
When researching flighst and unsure of which airlines service a place I go to the airport's wiki entry. For Mactan (Cebu) it cna be found here:
[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mactan-Cebu_International_Airport[/url]
The table "Terminals, airlines and destinations" gives you all the info.
Silkair is also an option and is excellent but not cheap.

Especially for non-English countries, assuming the info is updated if there are changes, Wikipedia is a great help in finding out in advance what terminals specific airlines or flights depart from. The same airlines may depart from many different terminals depending where the flights are heading, I. E. domestic or international etc.
Nonexistent or unclear/wrong signs and directions are big problem especially at China's huge regional airports where English is not used. You will be walking forever between terminals since ground shuttles are not available. It would be difficult to ask for help without command of local languages.
To make doubly sure, call the airlines and confirm again what terminals / gates your flights depart from. You don't want to walk to the wrong terminals then spend another half or full hour trying to race to the right places.
Believe me confirming all info in advance may save you missing flights and headaches at local airports where there are no signs and directions are unreliable.
Hate to miss the flights and have the girls wait while you have to buy new tickets and wait for the next flight.
Thanks for posting this tip.
