Jan6- direct Toronto-Manila. Landing 4:30 in the morning. Luggage was ready in 20 minutes Total time to clear airport 30 to 40 minutes very simple very organized excellent facilities lots of space - this was five in the morning - NOTE - wait and buy sim card outside of airport 1/4 price DUTY FREE- Example Chocolate also johnnie walker was quadruple the price that you would find in a large store in any city (save your money)
This brought back memories! I haven't been back since February 2011 (not that I am counting). As you walked out of Terminal 2 I could immediately feel the sudden change in heat, the humidity and the smell of the air.
I deeply appreciate this video a lot...Soon I am planning a trip to the Philippines and the process shown here looks a lot easier than I anticipated. Its great to see a smooth process. Thanks again for sharing this video!
Found this video both entertaining and informative. Hoping to visit my Filipino girlfriend for the first time later this year. Have never left the UK - ever, so this is all new to me. Many thanks for giving me an insight of what to expect when the time comes!
@@cliddilyFilipino is a non-gender identification of your Nationality. If you have your passport it will always say Filipino even if you’re a female. It will not say Filipina just because you’re a female. It’s the same as American. It will not say Americano/Americana. The only difference is Filipino ends with a vowel which can easily be confused as a gender sensitive noun. So he is right to to say Filipino girlfriend.
Nice airport. My first visit to Manila is extremely fun. Most important #AnisTransport car rental did a great job during my stay in Manila. They did pickup from Airport ontime . Nice city 🌆
I noticed a lot of passengers had carry-on luggage. I read online that the carry on luggage had to weigh under 7 kilos. I am thinking their carry on luggage was probably more than 7k...do they allow you to bring it onboard? I read online it is a hefty fee if it is overweight...
@@OnTimeReports and what is the app for QR code? Is the customs form the one you get on the airplane? Can it be downloaded and filled out or is there an app for it too? Thanks!!
Its best to download the Grab app upon arrival and book a grab car. Thery're more reliable than taxis and the Grab app (=Uber for Southeast Asia) is used everywhere in Southeast Asia. Cannot recommend this point highly enough. I'm A British Filipino expat who moved to the Philippines last year. Ask where the grab desk is upon arrival and they'll help you there. There should be someone from the company to help tourists book a grab from there.
Hi PO sana masagut nyo po katanungan ko .. paano kung connecting flight ng PAL papunta cebu pagkatapos ba ng imiigration kukunin ba yung bagahe ? o direct sa cebu na kukunin ??
(as of today) PHILIPPINE AIR requests that all passenger use mask but not enforcing strictly - NOTE it is easy to get sick on plane full of shared air i choose to use mask unless eating Personally i dont want to be sick on vacation (last summer 8/8 of family members travelling inside canada got covid on 4 hr flight - we were sick for our Vacation )
(15hr flight Manila - Toronto landed last night) PHILIPPINE AIR - observations - 1) Flight attendant came out of CR/ washroom after 10 min (i was waiting in line) After coming out wearing gloves she put some alcohol on gloves and rubbed together (quick rub with minimal contact between the two hands) i am not nurse but work in health care related this was not a proper handwash for any situation ... JUST SAYING staff are great they work hard I appreciate but i) i dont think they receive high level of training re food handling ii) quite possibly they are given one set of gloves per shift or some form of rationing ??? We also witnessed this in health clinic and hospital when accompanying relative to hospital (one staff wore same pair of gloves / other nurse never put on gloves even for what is considered sterile procedure in Canada - hospitals are private i suppose this is cost saving measure but at what cost to your health) 2) i was 4 hour early @ Manila for my flight I have own water bottle nalgene After going thru security we were screened again at the gate and had to dump water (told this is routine) this was 2.5 hours ahead of flight the UNFORTUNATE ELDERs were left lined up in wheelchairs 15-20 elders using w.c. on this flight - NONE we given water in that 2.5 hours YES there was a water filling station wi 3 min walk of gate but OUT OF ORDER (for 3+ hours) the next closest Water Station 15 min walk round trip so i used that but POOR ELDERLY essentially denied water I specifically asked gate crew that SINCE passenger can not bring water inside gate and since we are asked to be there 2+ hours early COULD THEY NOT GET SOME BOTTLES OF WATER to hand out to customer inside of Gate- consistently staff responded 'please use the free water station - LOL even I told them its 15 min walk was told by vendor that these Fillling station are commonly OUT OF ORDER OVERALL A GOOD EXPERIENCE i likely fly PAir again because of direct flight but i will bring my own food and water to avoid getting sick on $2500 flight thats all
Hey thanks for the input..will be flying with PAL next month to Philippines. We too booked this flight because it's direct flight. That is kind of sucks for the people that works at the airport for not helping the elderly. I guess will be flying different airlines on going back to the US.
Yay I work here in the hospital 🇺🇸 As I read you’re comment and how you noticed what the FA done wearing gloves and rubbed alcohol is DAMN. Washing hand then gloves no alcohol 100% they don’t have continuous education like what we do here🇺🇸 every 90 days we do refresh skills and learns on our Epic you wonder about PAL everything is palpak someone flown to PAL business class then when they about to board it’s just too many problem cause delay like table is broken remote not working including headphones🙄 so I don’t get it lot of people always complain about PAL there’s a lot of airline you can fly like ANA airline Korean airline maybe they just want to fly with Filipino FA so they can ask or speak Tagalog vice versa
@OnTimeReports ok thanks! I will go Philippines and I need the little information! And one question please tell me ... visa for 1 month will buy on airport 🛫 ?
So when u hit customs they just scan you in that’s it? I thought they ask you how long your be and you have to show u have money in ur bank account and stuff like that.
Hi I am planning to go to fetch my future husband.we been in long-distance relationship. I enjoyed the information.thankyou very much. I do appreciate. ❤❤❤❤
Wonder what that groaning was at 01:22 😮 I never get tired of the sight of BGC, driving there was always so much easier than the rest of the city. On my last trip it was pretty easy landing from Vancouver too, full vaccination and documents at the ready made it a breeze to get through!
this is a little out dated, i travelled in November of 23 and wasn't even asked about my QR code, the government of the Philippines also wants you to register for a QR code before departure which was not required.. The travel requirements seem to change by the week.
as a tourist u ned to watch out when u arive at NAIA. From the moment you set foot on land you are a potential target. That starts with passport control until you leave the airport and even then you are not safe from scammers, thieves, etc. everything in the airport and around it is a playground for thieves . , and that goes for tourists who come in as well as for those who leave .
@@consorciasantiago4009 There are many airports that are safe for Foreign travelers and where you do not have to be careful contstandly like in Naia . NAIA is a special case. This is where it starts when you leave the plane. The monitoring services are the first to try to deceive and lie to you. BI. Security . Baggage handler. Customs . Taxis . Banks . They all have only one goal and that is to rob you. They will pull out all the tricks of the circus. I don't think there are many honest people working at that airport. In any case, I've never come across one and I travel quite a lot.
I have done both Clark, Pampanga, and NAIA. I always prefer Clark. No wait, really friendly staff, just a better experience. But if you have to fly into NAIA, Manila, well, it's ok, job gets done, but they are less friendly. However they are honey bunnies compared to the animals in TSA in US.
I've flown into Manila from San Francisco twice within the past year, once to T2, and the last time to T1. Both times needed to transfer to Tacloban. First time took PAL to TAC so didn't need to exit the terminal. But 2nd time took Cebu Pacific in T3, which means taking a shuttle bus that takes you OUTSIDE the airport to get to T3. Are you kidding me? This has to be the worst setup in the world. Can't wait (20+ years?!) for then new airport to be built at Bulacan.
I hope the experience at NMIA will not be anything like this. Plenty of space at NMIA to effectively handle significant passenger traffic. NMIA should be able to handle additional direct flights going as far as Atlanta with an Airbus A350.
Worst airport procedures ever for international connecting flights! They collected all passengers passports and had us open our checked bagages for inspection. The way they gave us back our passports was the way a teacher passes out test scores by calling out names 🙄 We had to go thru security check twice. When we got to our gate, we had to go thru security check again. Oh, and if you leave your designated gate area, you have to go thru security again; every single time. Staffs are not friendly at all.
@@borntotravel9757 They need to work on their procedures. They were disorganized. We followed their rules. I am complaining about their procedures. Never once did I mention we acted out and refuse to comply.
@@ayc1997 i was born there and recently visited… And I agree… they have the worst airport ive been in. Some of the immigration officers think they own the airport
@AvC really true 💯%. ignore people who won't accept an honest opinion. keep up on sharing your suggestion so blind people will wake up the realities. Thanks
Hi, good afternoon. I am traveling to Pinas late this summer from the US. The next leg is domestic --- from Manila to Roxas City. Cebu Pacific (CP) told me when I bought my ticket to go to Terminal 3 for the flight. Now it seems that all CP-domestic flights are departing from Terminal 2. Can you confirm, please. Another query, is there an over night hotel or short-time lodge (like The Wings NAIA 3) in Terminal 2? What is available in Terminal 2 for a short overnight stay? Maraming salamat, po.
1. Umbrellas are considered weapons, so don't try taking one on board with you. I had to throw mine away. However, this was departing. Just a strange situation. I got singled out, and had to empty my bags onto the floor while waiting to get my ticket. So I'm sitting there with all my stuff on the floor, and they finally found my dangerous weapons, which I was allowed to dispose of in a nearby garbage can. Dunno... just, it was raining, and what was I supposed to do? 2. On arrival, realize that they don't let just anybody in. If you have somebody waiting for you, they have to wait outside the terminal. 3. Be careful of taxis. They'll tell you they don't know where your hotel is, even though you can give them the exact address. They'll take you to another hotel that pays them to deliver tourists. Worst hotel I've ever been to! TV didn't work, door didn't lock, and there were roaches. Fortunately, I had some red horse beer.
The Philippines customs is way faster than the US. I went through customs fast in Manila, but in the US it took at least an hour of standing in a line (even though I’m a US citizen). Please US airport come up with something better than what we do have.
Thanks vlogger for outstanding footage. I finally found out most decent wheelchair service for PWD/Seniors was only Phil Airlines. So If you fly different airlines they provide a wobbly wheelchair service very inconsiderate. 👎🏼😏
I don’t know about you. But I have been thru thr airport in Manila a few times. And I’ve always had a very positive experience. Yes the lines are long at times. But overall I was treated with kindness and respect. There’s always two sides to the coin !
PAL uses terminal 2 exclusively, although other airlines also use it. terminal 1 is used by other international airlines. terminal 3 is for domestic and other international airlines.
Philippines needs to drop all covid mandate requirements like the rest of the world. It's a proven fact the vax doesn't stop transmission or prevent infection.
That's not the point of ANY vaccine. vaccines are only meant to activate/stimulate/train the immune system to be able to recognize and fight a real infection so that recovery from them happens much better than if you never had a vaccine. I think you need to educate yourself what vaccines are.
How do you prove or not prove that you been vaccinated from United states? I know you fil out the green code but how they know , if I cant remember the exact date I was vaccinated. Do they ask for a card. Because I dont have a card
Thanks! Would you be able to arrive at Clark International Airport? Its the alternative to NAIA at the moment, and miles better. The govt are building 2 new huge airports for Metro Manila (Bulakan and Sangley) but those are several decades away from full operation. For now, Clark is the better gateway to Metro Manila. You're in and out in less than 20 minutes.
The Philippines people usually clap 👏 whenever the plane lands to land ! 🛬🛬🛬🛬🛬🛬🛬🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️ !!! I FIND THAT PRETTY KOOL ! I Love the Philippines ❤️ 🇵🇭 !

DUTY FREE- Example Chocolate also johnnie walker was quadruple the price that you would find in a large store in any city (save your money)
I believe you. Too expensive at Duty Free there as you get off the plane. Try the Duty Free outside the airport. Many selections.
@Tim Kinney I knew it Duty Free is a ripp off Thanks

Hi PO sana masagut nyo po katanungan ko .. paano kung connecting flight ng PAL papunta cebu pagkatapos ba ng imiigration kukunin ba yung bagahe ? o direct sa cebu na kukunin ??
Sa cebu mo na kukunin, sila na yong magtatransfer ng bagahe sa next flight mo
Hindi. Mga baggage handler na ang lilipat mula international to domestic. Deretso ka na sa next flight mo.
So if we pass customs we free to go anywhere we want until our next transit?
Hello! No more vaccination test when arriving?
No
Can you explain me what the officials have scan???
Thank you for sharing. I was hoping to catch the area where you can do an extension while in the airport. God bless

Less than one hour
Very nice
what kind of qr code dso u have to have
Are there any xray machines at the customs? Or you can just go with your baggage?
Any update on this?

i know im year late but video was awesome. this help me with my Anxiety knowing what to do when i visit Phil in 2026
Pwede nabang lumapag c Arrival Area c Philippine Airport Ang hindi Vaccinated ng Covid?
hello i have flight at 15 august , should i take my covid test before my flight ? because my flight is 17 hours
Whats the QR code?
What do they do at customs?
What immunizations are required for travel?
What is the QR code? Is that at the back of passport?
Do they still need OHP because on the booth i saw the OHP.. but i heard nowadays they need etravel instead of one health pass(OHP). Or you need both?
.
Great video 👍

I believe uploading proof of vaccination is one of the steps required to obtain a QR code
They only ask what vax you have when filling out the e travel. Doesn’t ask to upload the vax card.

To verify you are eligible to enter the country and followed the correct procedures

So I'm traveling here for the first time in a few months, my first time internationally. What are the qr codes they scan?
Thanks! Would you be able to arrive at Clark International Airport? Its the alternative to NAIA at the moment, and miles better. The govt are building 2 new huge airports for Metro Manila (Bulakan and Sangley) but those are several decades away from full operation. For now, Clark is the better gateway to Metro Manila. You're in and out in less than 20 minutes.
