Hi Ray and welcome to the forum.

If I fly from the uk I generally try Southall Travel, look online for them. But if course the time you want to travel is always going to be expensive because of school holidays.

£559 was the cheapest I could see there.

Checked a couple other sites and that seems to be the best

Hi Ray, and welcome :smile:

Try looking at Skyscanner or Kayak for flight comparisons, it helps if you're slightly flexible with your dates. Also look at the total flight time, one airline might be £50 cheaper but taking 30+ hours with stopovers, personally I'd rather spend the £50 and do the trip in under 20 hours each way.

Right Simon, the cheapest isn't always the best flight

:welcomex: here to Filipina Roses, Ray ... there are plenty of helpful suggestions to mull over already, I see. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Personally, I've only used Singapore Airlines for my two trips. GREAT :airline: (*£730 return on each occasion in 2008 and 2009, respectively) - with only one change of flight en route to Davao International Airport - though, of course ... :anerikke: ... you may consider that *price a tad expensive for your liking. :smile:

Welcome to the Forum these seems the best for fares at the moment, even a couple of days can make a difference to the price, but of course you are going at an expensive time of year.

Just had an email from Cathay Pacific, they have a sale on to Manila, Clark or Cebu from either Heathrow or Manchester prices are from £519 for a limited time only. http://www.cathaypacific.com/cx/en_GB/offers/collection/discover-the-philippines-origin-london.html?cm_mmc=CXPECIALS-GB-_-160614-SMSA-LHRMAN-_-LP-HS-_-20160617&cm_lm=GS-9E03A322652355F613E69CEDFED55319&spMailingID=25765261&spUserID=MTI1NjI2MzAxNTM0S0&spJobID=822619639&spReportId=ODIyNjE5NjM5S0

I typed in a few dates and even got £512, but the dates you are looking at go sky high around £1000 :NoNo:
