January 16, 201313 yr Hi, Any body got useful info on best, cheapest, fastest flight travel options from Manila, Philippines to Chiang Mai?? No stopovers--short stops, etc..? Air Asia, Cebu, Tiger--who's best?? Thanks in advance.
January 16, 201313 yr Author Has Anyone made the flight from Philippines to Chiang Mai recently--any information, please??
January 16, 201313 yr I would have thought that the cheapest and most convenient (for me when i have done the reverse) would be CM to KL and then KL to Clark all with Airasia and then make your way down to Manila (lots of options there) Plus is you avoid Bangkok, plus or minus you go via Clark. Plus you avoid NIAA or Centenial. Minus is LCCT not that nice so would look at minimum stopover. Could also go direct to Manila from KLIA with Phil. Air. or Cebu Pacific Air (last time I looked they had two flights a day to Manila from KL). Cebu are reasonably cheap. If the person coming is not that confident a traveller I would have thought Clark to KL to CM all with Airasia. Have the one airline and avoid the big airports and some of the scrutiny if PI national potentially working Edited January 16, 201313 yr by mamborobert
January 17, 201313 yr I went in August CM-BKK-Clark as it was fastest due to best connection times and cheapest and I shared a taxi w/a few ppl. at taxi stand to Manila
January 17, 201313 yr Author Thanks to MamboRobert for the useful info; Ms Dolly--I know I could ask an agent, but since the flight is not for myself, I have no idea of budget, time requirements, etc..and what I have been asked to try to find out is what way do other travelers, on that route, find to be best way--least stops, convenient, cheap, less hassle--all the usual stuff--but thanks for the hint.
January 17, 201313 yr Haybilly, Don't know if it's any help, but... I'll depart Philippines going to C.M. on Mar 2. Tickets from Clark-BKK cost us USD$177 per pax (PhP7,280) on Cebu Pacific. Don't have a ticket to C.M. yet, but there are many options. Have taken the Clark-BKK route several times. Don't enjoy visiting Angeles City, but we much prefer traveling through Clark than the chaos of Manila airport. Edited January 17, 201313 yr by BradinAsia
January 17, 201313 yr Author Woops, seem to have managed to treble post--first 2 attempts sent my browser in a tailspin, so I assumed they didn't make it through the ether--my bad!! Thanks to Brad and Junglechef for the latest.
