re: ;(

sa NAIA ka na lang..kailangan mo ng Booking ng hotel,credit card at pocket money na enough sa vacation mo if ilang days ka dun,kailangan marami ka talaga pera maniwala sila na you can handle yourself to go on for a tour abroad especially when you are alone..mag inquire ka na lang sa travel agency,makakatulong din yun.

Employment rate increase

Rsent with correction

Opening of the airport means several career opportunities. Asa man ta maka inquire ug job or maka submit ug application?

re: Worst and most corrupt airport ever!!!

I experienced the same just this morning. I felt like they delayed us intentionally because they even lost my boarding pass while waiting to be interviewed for which we do not know why, hence, the delay. Finally he came back to give me the form to be filled up and he said he got a new boarding pass for me ( like I have to thank him for that, duh..! ) . I told that same officer twice that we are going to be late on our flight but he just said wait for your turn " pakihintay lang po,kayo na ang susunod ". They didn't care at all. We patiently waited for our turn. E nauna pa kame s ibang na-intrvw na. They don't have a system. They only have one interviewer, who asks the same question over and over. And nung malaman nila na naiwan kame, wala silang pakialam.

And also be careful when paying Travel Tax, there was one personnel who came up to us and assisted us in paying our travel tax. He asked us to pay exact amount. I did not suspect anything, even if he told me that while waiting, one of us can go and pay the terminal fee already, and so I went and left my sis and my friend. After which, I asked my sis and my friend for the receipt, but they said he didn't issue a receipt. I got suspicious when they asked us to refund the fees as a result of not boarding the plane. The man who took our travel tax fee gave us the refund without going back to the queu or filling up a form. He just handed over the money and said " oh eto na ung pera , para di na kyo pumila ". That is why he didn't issue a receipt coz he planned on keeping the money to himself. Obviously, a corrupt employee.. tsk.tsk.tsk.

re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon

Just wondering what happened to this case. Please make an update so we, frequent travelers will be wary of what to expect and what to do when we encounter things like this. The BI's are not the DFA's and I suppose they do not have the authority to confiscate the passport, more so to tear the passport.

re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon

Good to find this kind of blog here.. Anyway, is this really how our BI officers act??I've been also humiliated in front of many people at the airport. Can somebody tell me how to get a passport confiscated by BI?? And is it really normal that they give temporary receipt without the passenger's name and his passport number at least??..parang hukos pukos kasi...padulas ba hinihingi nila??...

Useless old people

Immigration Clark airport,

You guys are should be licking each others ass there, as you just care about money and not for some people who wants to get some vacations. All the members working there are just ugly old with an attittude .. I was just going to tell them earlier to lick your co-workers ass and fuck that shit! Those guys are not even thinking and they're proud reading this comment now .. Your ratings are must be worse than ever and the reviews are also bad! So condolence to all BI's.. RIP .. All they care is just the money but they cant tell it to you directly! You guys are just sick of money. I feel bad to those persons who works there, even some ladys working there but they cant even help you, As their just all the same smelly shit! So Fuck off guys and keep licking each others ass. hahahaha :) good luck for the next step!

re: Notorious BI Clark Officers

This is still happening. 01 May my girl friend of 2 years was not allowed to leave the country when we attempted to go on Holiday to Hong Kong for 3 days. The decision by the immirgration officer wasn't given until 5 mins before the plane was scheduled to take off. When she told the officer that here job was as a Waitress, the officer accused her of being a prositute. Hmmm....I wonder if I would have offered a VIP fee, would she have been allow to go. Something is Rotten at DMIA.

Worried.

I am planning to travel at the end of this month. I'll be attending my cousin's important event in her life. But I'm so worried about everything I've read here. I have the important documents from my cousin but still, I'm very much worried. :(

DMIA

Wala po mangyayari sa mga complains natin kung walang magpiprint at magsesend ng mga ito sa kaukulang tao sa clark. Marami po masisearch online puwede masulatan na tao sa airport sa clark at kailangan niyo isulat complains niyo at iypost sa kanila. Marami napo silang complains at kung isama niyo sa inyo in proper letters makakatulong masugpo sila.

Frequent flyer po ako sa maraming bansa, UK, Europe, USA, Asia and Middle East. Sa Clark lang po ako nakatagpo ng bastos na Immigration officer. Small time small mind po kasi airport. Papunta ako Bangkok, unang 3 seconds pa lang pagharap ko sa Immigration officer, di pa niya ako tinitingnan, ang tanong niya "saan ka pupunta? Pupuntahan mo kabit mo?'. I looked straight back at him maybe quite challenging because of my shock and disbelief. I think he expected me to joke and just take it. Hindi naman po ako bastos magdamit. Di naman makapal magmake-up. Even if I was, no Immigration officer is allowed to be rude and unprofessional sa remark na ganoon. Hindi ko naman masisi sarili ko, this is how this person was brought up, lacking of decorum and respect sa kapwa tao. I can't even begin to think how he landed his job. I'm sure kumpa-kumpare. He was maybe 50ish. Very arrogant. Dahil Hindi ako natuwa sa very inappropriate unprofessional remark niya, he sent me back to get my return ticket printed. I was showing him my return ticket on my blackberry. Kapag nakakaintindi po Immigration Officer, they know how to look at a real eticket kahit nasa email. It has reference numbers and confirmation. Sa Manila airport, at overseas po in our modern times, madalas po dinidiscourage na pagpiprint ng eticket to be earth friendly. Avoid unnecessary printing--pero Sizemore I don't expect naman this modern thinking na gumagana na sa airport so anyway, I went back out sa airport. Some one hour looking for a printer siguro while im trying to control my anger sa remark ng BI na ito. Wala namang shops doon. Finally I found a friend who happens to work as a Security Guard with Cebu Pacific. Pinagprint niya ako sa office. I printed it, pagbalik ko, wala na ang arroganteng lalaking immigration, tapos di na ako tinanong ng return ticket nitong bagong naka duty. So I managed to fly out. Di na ako sumakay sa Clark from there on.

Touris visa po, sa Manila airport in my 10 years of flying as tourist to so many places, di kailangan at di hinihingi ang Invitation letter from whoever your visiting dahil Tourist po kayo--lalo kung pupunta lamang ng 3 to 7 days or similar sa Hongkong, Thailand, or similar Asian countries. Kailangan lamang po, return ticket, tax paid, passport valid 6 months at ang return ticket. Ako po, kahit ang hotel where I stay in hindi na tinatanong o hinihingan ng print. Pero iyready niyo po. Whether OFW kayo o hindi, kapag Tourist lamang sa Bangkok halimbawa, wala po ito relasyon sa sa mga OFW documents niyo. If you don't need to mention that, Kung kayo ay papasyal lamang, then no need to mention or show any of those OFW related documents dahil lalo lamang nakakalito. Hindi po ito pagtatago danil your going out as a tourist.

Sa mga talagang tourist lamang po, mga girlfriend po ng Foreign Nationals, yun lamang din po kailangan niyo. Return ticket, hotel booking, passport, wala po visa kung Asian countries lamang. Ni hindi naman po dapat kayo hingan o kailangan magpakita ng pera. Wala naman po kinaiba sa turistang pinoy na walang bf o asawang puti, pag tourist po, tourist pare-pareho at iisa requirements.

Problema lamang po, ang kamangmangan at pagkatakaw sa power ng mga BI sa Clark. Sa NAIA na lamang po kayo, kanit na marami ding anomalies, mas monitored naman kaysa sa Clark.

Isulat po niyo mga Complains niyo, Tagalog mas mainam. Siguraduhing ilagay petsa noong nangyari, ilista mga dokumentus na inilabas, at pangyayari at pangalan ng BI. Iwasan po magsulat ng emotional para iyaccept as objective ang complain ninyo kung kayo ay susulat ng proper complain. Punuin lamang po ng facts (petsa, pangalan ng tao, saan papunta, ano ang nangyari at ano ang nasabi, magkano ang nagastos).

V- Hire @ Taxi Fares

Can the government regulate the fares of V-Hire vans from Bacolod City to the airport ( and vice versa). The current fares in going to the airport via V-hire vans from SM terminal is P100.00 pesos which has the distance of only around 22 kilometers. While going to the city from the airport is P150 pesos which is really to much!!! Those taxi drivers also waiting outside the arrival area demanded extremely high fares,they don't to use the meter on their taxi! So sad that these kind of people creates a bad impression in your airport at saka ang babastos pa ng mga drivers!!! I just don't like the way they transact business with the passengers.

I think it is better that the government shall provide a shuttle service for the passengers with a reasonable fare...

Worst airport in the world

Ang tatanga naman kasi ng mga officials natin eh. Puro pera pera lng sakanila. Sa mga airports na nasubukan ko satin lng may terminal fee. Eh bakit ka pa mag gaganun kung pangit ng service nila. Wala nmn problema sa facilities eh. Ung problema is ung service nila. Dun na kikilala airport natin na. Kaya worst airport in the world ang naia tapus tong sa clark parang nagiging ganun narin. Its more fun in the philippines nga ba?ehehe

What if we don't have an invitation letter/affidavit of support from a sponsor that is dry sealed and duly authenticated by the Philippine Consulate office in a foreign country (original copy).

Philippine immigration requirement

Besides having a passport validity of at least 6 (six) months, passengers are reminded to take note of the following requirements:

Overseas contract workers and permanent residence in a foreign country

Must have an Overseas Employment Certificate (OEC) from the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA), which can be obtained from the POEA Balik Manggagawa Processing Division. Passengers must have proof of permanent residence in a foreign country and a valid work permit card.

Passengers travelling with children below 18 years of age

Effective April 2006, minors travelling with 1 (one) parent have no need for DSWD Clearance. However, for minors travelling with an adult other than their parents (e.g. aunt, uncle, grandparents and others), a DSWD Clearance is required.

Passengers travelling as tourists

Must have their return flight confirmed (not more than 1 (one) month), and must have an invitation letter/affidavit of support from a sponsor that is dry sealed and duly authenticated by the Philippine Consulate office in a foreign country (original copy).

International?

Bacolod-Silay International Airport will indeed be true to its name if there will be international flights to Bacolod-Silay Airport, because of a steady stream of tourists, businessmen, sportsmen and students, etc, who will come to Negros. Surely the opportunities are abundant, though hotels and lodging facilities, etc. need to be upgraded to international standards. Bacolod is quite clean. There is a need for aggressive advertisement to these effect. But until now the airport runway is short! The aircon in the pre-departure area does not work! The pre-departure area is quite small compared to the volume of passengers, thus it is crowded! Should there not be an annex building? What happened to the approved plan to extend the runway by 500 meters to accommodate the bigger Airbus 330? At present the runway length is even shorter than that of Cagayan de Oro!

What does the latest census or survey say as to what countries the visitors to Negros come from? Then the international budget airlines can link Bacolod to those countries/cities.

re: your data is not about the new airport of iloilo

Reply to @ptomblin: On second thoughts, maybe it would be better to close the old entry and make a new one, or make an entry for the old one and mark it closed since the new airport has the same ICAO and IATA codes. I'll let @david make the call.
