i want my money back...

i have the same problem with two of the immigration officer in clark pampanga last year november 23. they refuse me to fly to bankok.. they were asking lots and lots of things.. id's and ect... poea thing coz i am an ofw in UAE.... which i dont have because i will only fly to bangkok for my holiday.. and visit my cousin who gave birth last october., i am very much confident to myself that they wont refuse me because i am a flyer.. i visited bangkok many times.. not only bangkok.. i've been too many places in asia and middle east plus i have enough cash on my hand. but still they did not let me in. and worst thing is they don't give a refund on my ticket...i thought that it would at least be okay if they refund my tickets because of their misconduct. one of the guy from travel tax desk ask me.. and said ( di ba may kasama kang foreigner kanina, bakit na off load ka? ) that is the worst thing talaga... bakit kailangan ba may kasama kang foreigner para lang makapagcheck in makapag board or what? ganun na ba talaga kababa ang tingin ng mga pilipino sa ating kapwa pilipino? kaya walang asenso ang pilipinas kasi pinipigilang umasenso.

i went back home... and think and think and think...

and now i will go back to philippines and file a case to them.. sana lang magtanda sila.., good thing i still have my itenerary receipt.

Hello guys.

Hello guys... Is Vigan Airport the First airport in Northern Luzon? When it was established? Dr. Rabena of UNP, Do you have some info regarding this pls?

Picture of

Flight schedule

Can we know the flights schedules of SEAIR? Thanks it has been advertized in the SEAIR website. More info please. MAny passengers and tourists are interested. Is it daily or thrice a week? More power SEAIR! Welcome to Vigan! This is Dr. Alfredo Rabena.

Picture of

It needs lighting also!

Yes, I suggest the lighting s that it will be functional night and day and I believe a control tower for wider navigation. This was the first airport in the north.

Picture of

Upgraded already!

I have seen to be capable of handling flights already. It is well paved, secured with a perimeter fence all around the airport. There was commercial before prior to the upgrading and we heard of SEAIR coming ! First flight is Feb. 25, 2011! Thanks ! This airport serves llocos Norte, Abra, La Union and Ilocos Sur. There is no airport in Abra, just 20 min away from Vigan. I wll be AN ECONOMIC EVENT to watch because of the commercial flights.

re: Legaspi City International Airport

I am confused on the location of the Legazpi international airport, I believe it is not located in legazpi but in Daraga. The map shown is the existing domestic airport, who put this here ? be sure of what you are doing ha!!!!

Immigration Officers, Clark, Philippines

I experienced the same thing yesterday with Immigration officers of Clark. They were looking for OEC which i don't have any knowledge of. And when i researched as I arrived here in my province, it's an exit clearance that "I have undergone the legal and right procedure for overseas employment". What???? I won't go to Singapore to work, I will just have my 4 days vacation with my son and we will visit my sister.

They are allowing my son to travel they won't allow me. My son can travel without any invitation from my sister? But because I have resident visa from other country, I couldn't travel? What kind of law we have here in the Philippines? So they've put there "voluntary off-loaded for my son". What do you expect, my son won't travel without me. He's just turned 18 for heaven's sake.

My concern is, they should have had put in the documents what we need to secure before travelling in the ticket or wherever. Not ask us documents that we need to bring as we about to board on the plane. I traveled 3 hours from our province and because it's an early check in I need to rent a van going there which cost me P3,500, only to be "off-loaded" by this stupid immigration officer.

I hope Philippine government take notice of this.

re: Immigration Officers, Clark, Philippines

Have you reported your concern to the Bureau of Immigration's main office in Intramuros, Manila? If not, try to report the incident to the Office of the Commissioner. Those Immigration Officers (IO's) should be stopped from doing the same thing to other travellers originating from Clark Airport. It gives a very negative image of our country and our people. You can access the site of Bureau of Immigration - Philippines to air your concern. Try A/Comm. Roy Almoro.

Immigration Officers, Clark, Philippines

Immigration officers in Clark, Philippines are very stiff, that we are known to be friendly people but immigration officers are unlikely to be friendly. Even some are racists, I understand their line 0f job is to make sure that they may let the right people comes in and out of the country but excellent customer service should as well be exhibited with the welcoming attitude even though there will be confrontational circumstances. Filipinos are known to be respectful but not these immigration officers. Apparently, I've been on and off to different airports and most immigration officers are really friendly and helpful.

re: Clark Air Base

Actually if Philippine Airlines buy A380,it originates at CRK,after DMIA expansion project,MNL will be closed and CRK is the international gateway of Philippines.I live at Pasay City so if MNL will close it will affect Metro Manila and consume 2 hrs trip to CRK so i hope MNL will not close.

Picture of

BPR closure

The airport is still closed because it lacks of runway signs.......But the nearest airport in operation is Tacloban(TAC)....Guiuan Airport is also closed but the locals said the airport will be operational soon.

re: complain

yes what u all have said are true. my niece was interrogated by one of the officer and denied going to singapore without any explanation. when the officer ask her if she have money to bring and my niece said yes 20k then the officer said he won't let her go. maybe he want to have some share of my niece show money and when my niece ask y she cannot go he didn't explain anything. my niece is innocent that's why it didn't click to her mind that maybe the officer need lagay. (bribe)

re: Will Borongan Fly Again?

i hope God willing, borongan airport will be operational again. and this will be for a long haul. for all ESTEHANONS, let's hope and pray and do what we can to make this possible. maybe we have to put politics aside first and be united to make borongan airport operational. as one airline company said in their ads," bakit sasakay ka pa sa bus, mag airbus ka na"

Picture of

Is the airport open?

I'm booking the flight to Boracay, but heard the airport is closed for renovation, just wondering when will it be reopen again

Picture of

TAC Apron

Hope they will fix the Apron specially if there is a flight using long range aircrafts it only accompanies A320,A319,ATR and Dash 8

Picture of

SBIA

Perhaps,There is no passenger service in SBIA,only freight service like Fedex.

Picture of

NAIA Lounges

I was there on June 3,2010 aboard Malaysia Airlines MH803 to Kuala Lumpur,but the problem is the Lounges in the Gates of the airport.Hope they will fix it

Kalibo Airport Operations

Wow!!There is an international flight in Kalibo Airport,Is this airport International???

Picture of

Caticlan Airport

Very small airport with many airline service,Hope they renovate the airport to accompany more passengers and aircrafts

Picture of

Legaspi City International Airport

This international airport once finished will connect Luzon to the Visayas and probably Mindanao.It is going to be great.I really can wait to see it in operations.I can go home to my family in Ligap City every year or even every 6 months the least direct from where I am here overseas.I also think that my fellow Bicolanos from all over the world will be thinking the same as I do.

Picture of

Legaspi City International Airport

When is this going to open?I cant wait to go home to Albayflying directly from Australia to make it an easier and shorter destination and for my fellow Bicolanos and tourists from all over the world.It will surely bring a lot of jobs and tourism in the region so hopefully it is already getting closer to a finish.

Picture of

Bagabag Airport

Flew there on 10th July 2010 on a Cessna 172 but Tower never answerd on 123.40 (closed for maintenance?). Then flew on to Mrmp but that appeared to be a dilapidated abandoned runway too dangerous too land. Poor co-pilot had to pee in her water bottle !

Picture of

Calling overhead and AOG frequency and runway orientation

The overhead calling frequency is 121.9 for calling other aircraft in the vicinity or AOG // Runway orientation is East, runway 29, and West, runway 11. The length of the runway is 960m, not including the threshold of 10m either end. No ATC, and no refuelling.

Picture of

flight schedule

do you have airflight from subic to baguio? thanks

Picture of

re: Safety

The airlines ware recently put on the black list and are not allowed to fly to any european airport. Probably due to maintenance problems.

Picture of

Safety

Is the airport safe due to its officials? Several reports about the near crash were in even our newspapers (in the Netherlands) published. Good advertising.

any updates about re-opening of Ma.Cristina Airport....

i guess it's a good thing to have the Balo-i Airport re-opened.it's not just good for Iligan City but for the whole Lanao Del Norte and some parts of Lanao Del Sur esp. Marawi City.based on passenger load in Cagayan De Oro Lumbia Airport,Lanao area comprises some 40-50% of passenger share,which could easily equal to 2 daily flights using modern turbo-prop aircrafts being used by major airlines in the country.the problem with RPMI is the security within the critical radius wherein the aircraft approaches the airport,as it has not been deemed secured yet.but overall,even if an international airport is coming soon in Laguindingan,i would say if Balo-i airport is open for commercial flight,then why would i travel more when i can fly from a nearer airport.hoping that some local leaders with great visions for the good of the whole Lanao areas would give some effort to have the airport re-opened.i guess the likes of Gov.Khalid Dimaporo,who's young with great plans for Lanao Del Norte could be a great instrument of re-opening the airport.and it's good to know that somebody from the Congress is trying to make a policy proposal about re-opening the airport.anyway i have info for RPMI although limited but i guess this would help a bit.i'll just e-mail it to you in a moment.

A Great Addition To Western Leyte Air Commuters

Picture of

Mt Mayon

Hi! I have planned to fly to Legazpi in February and I'm worried of the volcano Mt Mayon. I know people have been evacuated away from the volcano at the moment and like to know a little more! We have planned to fly to Legazpi then take a taxi to Pilar and a fast craft to Masbate City. What happens if the volcano eruptures?? Where can we land safely that our plans are not all going to waste? What's the situation at the moment?

How to get to pangasinan from Subic Bay airport?

Picture of

Runway at Castillejos

I last used this runway in 1964 when the Cubi Pt. Navy Flying Club used it for training with a Piper Colt. It was unpaved but in good condition and was attended by a man who asked for our flight information.

Picture of

Runway

I last landed and took off Corregidor in 1984 with 3 American Civil Air Patrol Cadets. I recommend 10 degrees of flaps for takeoff with a Cessna 182.

The same C182 with 4 adults went off the end of the runway and dropped into the bay sometime later.

re: any airlines care to fly to iligan?pls.do....

hej,im glad to have a feedback/reaction relating my post.actually it took some time for somebody like me interested about Ma.Cristina Airport's reopening to commercial service.I'm even more happy to know that you're working for the govt.or in the congress.are you a staff of Cong.Varf Belmonte?i've been looking for a way on how i can contact him to ask about what's his plan of RPMI(Iligan)the only thing i can link you about RPMI(Ma.Cristina Airport)is in skyscrapercity.com,i believe you know that forum already.there's a guy in there that's really an aviation expert and he knows the real score of Iligan airport.AFAIK Iligan Airport is still close waiting for the clearing operation by our AFP to be finished and be declared safe for aircraft within the approach zone.but i still believe that a push from the local govt.or the person like cong.varf belmonte or people connected with the govt.could be a big help in reopening the airport.i've seen many airports opened already and has been active ever since.airports of cities or provinces that iligan is way ahead in terms of revenue and population.i just hope you could give your precious time to promote or make an important move so Ma.Cristina Airport can be reopened again.i would would be happy to support too.
