Clark To Panglao Flight

Image
Last leg of my 3-legged flight today. And I was ready to enter Clark's departure area but saw this... I had to stop and watch. This was what I've been advocating all along - let all public transport vehicles deliver/pick-up passengers as near to the airport terminal as can be, just like how private vehicles do . Clark 'partly' does it! THAT, is one of the regular buses that comes from Metro Manila. It can be done! Yes it can be done, for I know it had been done, AND being done by many countries around the world except the Philippines - mga utak tungaw kasi ang mga nasa transport department. "Colonial" brains. Actually not "colonial mentality" as if they're the colonists. To be precise, they have "slave mentality"! Ang unang iniisip "dapat me espesyal na dadaanan ang mga boss, ang mga mayayaman". Ganoon sila! Mga utak alila, isip alipin (na sipsip sa mas nakayayaman)! Sinanay kasi tayo ni Padre Damaso! Haay naku!

Clark to Caticlan, Going Boracay

Let's continue my story from the previous article... Oy, I didn't forget I had a connecting flight to Caticlan hahaha! Pasok ang iyong Dear Pinoy Traveler! I just looked around those check-in counters (for whatever it is worth), since I was already holding my boarding pass to Caticlan, issued at Mactan. Yes, I left Cebu with boarding passes of my two flights na. Airline people call it "through-check-in" or "check-through" - but we already discussed that topic long ago, right? Where upon checkin at your origin, you get 2 boarding passes for your 2 connecting flights. Then I made my way to the pre-departure area... I know those colorful walls are also temporary! But nice that they hung old pictures of Clark Airbase, to adorn this inclining claustrophobic hallway! I must tell you though, the ugliest part of this whole Clark Airport Experience was that 'security check' (xray) area just before this hallway. It is a bottleneck, a conglomerati

Cebu To Clark, Going Boracay

It's about time I visit a beach for it has been a while - I mean go to a beach for some R&R and not just to visit or pass-by because it was along the way of something else I was doing like this , this and this . I think the last time I stayed at a beach was in Glan . Aw, that was 5 months ago. So, let's go to: Boracay! My way there, was a little complicated though, but I liked it, for the experience. Nope, I did not do this flight route just for the fun of it. It came out a bit cheaper than flying 'direct' from Cebu to Caticlan. As is the usual case, if you book late for a busy flight route, prices become too expensive. So, be creative! Look at the red arrows, those were my flights, instead of the yellow one. All because I booked flights 2 days before departure! 'Cebu-Caticlan' fares were already pricier than 'Cebu-Clark plus Clark-Caticlan'. That happens, and I think we already discussed that in an article here, right? That airline fares ar
