I tried Cebu Pacific Airlines web site but it's horrible... can't get past first page. I tried Firefox and Chrome - no go.

Cebu is only one flying non stop to Angeles City.

The net is full of frustrated travelers with similar experience.

Air Asia is selling Cebu Air tickets but does "two bad ones make one good one?"

Expedia is a mess too.

What to do?

Priceline has flights between BKK and MNL on various airlines for under $300 round trip.

I use Traveloka as a backup when airline sites are a pain, works fine.  But if I was going to Clark I would prefer to go via Hong Kong (or elsewhere) as Cebu direct arrives at 03:10, less than ideal.

Thanks! I may try Traveloka. Although I had bad experience with hotel bookings with them.

Early arrival no problem. My gal will be waiting at any time...

And then? MNL is far away from CRK.

No direct flights to CRK.

Taxi from Manila to Angeles takes about 1 1/2 hours and costs about $30 or so.

Go into a physical travel agent and get them to do it.....probably cost 200 Baht over and above the fare

£216 up to about £247 via regular agents via Skyscanner

 

Bookable online obviously

Thanks but no thanks...

I don't use agents for tix.

I'll fly BKK to Manila on Thai. About $ 230 r/t.

OR even better; she comes to Jomtien 😉 negotiations on going.

I haven dated pinays for 20 years. Hopefully they are more liberated now.

Nothing wrong with that link. I just did a trial return BKK to CRK, about 9k THB. I flew CRK to BKK just a few days ago. Arrive at about 2200 so no bus to Pattaya. If you fly to MNL you can get the 24 hour point to point Genesis bus to SM Clark for AC from terminal 3. 420 PHP.

Chrome on my mobile. Never ever use Microsoft if you can avoid it.

Where do you get a physical travel agent up country? The ones in Bangkok all closed during the Chinese virus and never opened again, there are two cities within about 50 Ks from me, but to my knowledge none have any travel agents.

When I was back in Scotland recently there were plenty of travel agencies, in one mall there were two across from each other.

I wonder how much I've saved using agents for 164 round trips London Bangkok London !

Only 8 booked direct

 

Never the slightest issue with agents quite the opposite superb service always

 

Unlike 2 of the 8 times I booked direct

 

Probably mimimum of £10.000 I saved and then some

Do not use Booking.com they ask you to reply to an email ✉️ then tell you it does not exist. This happened to me at least six times.

Read what people say about trip,com Like on Reddit.

Worldwide Customer service in China and they don't speak English!

 

I never use agents for tixs. I got Trump complex; I know and can do everything!

So far always got where wanted to go. And if failing it's "them Lefties" fault..

So after the 2nd 3rd 4th time............................why did you continue to use them

 

(I have absolutely no idea what you were actually trying to say anyway)

Yes, they were handling my apartment booking for the UK and they were the link between me and the apartment staff, so I had to go through them everytime I had a question for the staff and when I asked them then clicked the reply  I was told most times that the email address did not exist, although the odd time it did, so I would not recommend booking.com

Philippine Airlines into Manila best by far

Why`? The price is twice the cheapest.  Only good is 30kg included but I fly light.

That's funny, if you can drag her from there to have a "date" in Jomtien I would think that's pretty liberated, otherwise desperate.
