im new here and have been fascinated by the relevant and often usefull info on this site ive been dating a lovely girl in the phils for over three yrs ive always booked last thing within days of leaving and of course paying prices from £600 to £800 depending on the season xmas being the worse
what i would like to find info on is flying to alternative airports that do exist
i hate the experience of flying to mailla then usually a taxi to the coach depot then onwards to a city called olongapo which often takes up to 4or more hrs after 15+ hrs of flying time its not great
near olongapo city well about an hr or so is a popular city called angeles there is an old us military airport known as clark airport which does have a couple of companies flying in and out of there
one i know to be a small company called tiger airlines and a larger company asiana airlines
tiger fly to singapore a usefull stop over place to get to the philippines
has any one tried or even flied to here?????????
i did find timetables etc for tiger airlines which fly small prop propelled planes here the prices seem cheap to
i have not been brave enough to risk flying to singapore then making my way to clark via this airline
my obvious concern is the reliability of the service and information on the internet
i do know angeles is a popular place for tourists etc esp american so someone must of tried this method
it would save me hrs rather than cost and be so much easier for my girl to meet me here
any help tips or advice even experience of using this airport would be great
olongapo has a great airport but since the americans handed back the base its on back into filipino control only fed ex seem to fly in there shame for me
thanks for reading even more if i get any replies
