Philippine Airlines

I travelled on PR502 from SIN - MNL April 2014. The check in at Changi Airport was fast. Staff were very friendly. The SATS lounge in Terminal 1 should be improved. It is a shared lounge by other airlines too. Very few selections of food and drinks. Its small and its always not busy (at least ...

Melbourne - Manila This flight was pretty uneventful. Philippine Airlines used to only use the A340 or for a while the up to date Boeing 777-300ER on Melbourne and Sydney flights. Timekeeping was good: we departed about 10 minutes late and arrived Manila 15 minutes late after the usual go around ...

Check In and Boarding at LHR ok on 6th March 2014, by contrast return from Manila on 29th March 2014 was an absolute shambles, check in tried to force hand baggage as hold baggage and then say you are over limit and try to levy an excess of 20,000 pesos (£275), N6 boarding gate too small for ...

Philippine airlines have configured their economy class as 3-4-3 as opposed to most peoples 3-3-3. The smaller seats really are MOST uncomfortable. Their food service is really bad. For instance they serve bread rolls but dnt have any butter!!. The food was cold. The service staff are rude and ...

The flight was almost 65 per cent full with the vast majority travelling economy. I boarded about 15 minutes before scheduled departure. The aircraft was ex Iberia and had refurbished, older style business class seats while the economy seats had also had some recent attention. There was no ...

Manila-SFO was flown by RP-7473. This aircraft was supposed to be an ex-kuwait airlines so there was a lot of Arabic written everywhere. That was the first thing I noticed about the plane. The plane was delayed for about 4 hours because of weather in Manila. Thank god SFO had free wifi and I was in ...

The flight was relatively 'open' (an airline euphemism for 'empty') so we pushed back early and took off fairly quickly after easy boarding. Lunch was served too early, some 50 minutes after takeoff when it was earlier than 12 noon Australian time. It was satisfactory with the fish being hot and ...

Although my flight was full, we boarded fairly efficiently although departed about 15 minutes late. The seat was reasonably comfortable as the plane was only a few months old, but it is 10 across seating not nine. Service was good as San Miguel beer is now on the menu. The fish was fine. The at ...

I was fairly early to board at MNL T2. The flight was almost full in economy; we departed 2" late but arrived HKG right on time at the gate. The attendants served a full hot meal but while I was in the third economy class row from the front, I was one of the last to be served; the meals had been ...

Boarding was delayed due to immigration problems for a few passengers. Left late but arrived MEL on time. Excellent four course meal served. Good large TV screen. IFE worked well. Seat good for dozing as very close to lie flat. Cabin attendants did not wake us early for breakfast which was ...
