    I'M going to Subic yacht club on Holy Thursday. Plan ko ay mga 9am alis ng Malabon. alin mas OK na route kapag holy thursday?NLEX or Mc arthur (4 to 5 hours). First time ko kasi magbyahe ng holyweek and yaw ko naman maipit sa traffic.

    Baka meron sa inyo naka experience na na nagNLEX ng holy thursday. Baka kasi mas maging matagal pa byahe ko if NLEX.

    Wednesday very early madaling araw? Like 2am. Then tulog sa sasakyan until check in. Better than being stucked in traffic.

    Thursday ng umaga pa lang crawl na traffic sa NLEX. Kung kaya mo bumyahe bukas ng gabi, mas mabuti.

    traffic naman palagi during this season. Better trust Nav App like waze or Google Maps and check their routes. Usually mas mabilis sa labas ng NLEX for a certain stretch.

    I travel to Subic from Pampanga at least once a week, trust me parehas lang kung mag NLEX-SCTEX ka at MacArthur Highway pag Holy Thursday. Everybody thinks that everybody else will travel later in the day and they all end up on the same roads at the same time.

    Advantage lang kung MacArthur kayo dadaan, then Gapan-Olongapo road to Subic, pwede kayong mag rest stop at maraming kainan along the way. You can't really do that on SCTEX more than once unless lalabas ka.

    Either way, good luck and safe driving.

    Dati napapanuod ko lang sa news o rinig sa kwento, pero totoo pala talaga yung na traffic sa NLEx pag HW (Maundy Thursday, April 18).

    Umalis ako ng QC (Diliman) 3:50am, dumating ako Baguio (Romulo Drive) 1:30pm (includes a 30-minute break at PTT SCTEx). SM North EDSA pa lang kaboom na, sa NLEx S10 na ako pinadaan ni Waze. Pag dating ng SMART Connect Interchange...penitensiya na hanggang Dau

    Segue sa Tabang Spur Road tapos exit sa Pulilan via Regional Road...kalbaryo ulit. Mabagal na nga traffic flow, mas bumagal pa sa mga sabitan along the way (I think I saw 4-5).

    Hindi ko sure kung yung main cause ng traffic ay yung pagbukas ni MNTC nbg counterflow lane somewhere in Angeles. Kasi after nung counterflow point na yun, harurot na until before piling up once again sa SCTEx on-ramp.

    OT: Pero pag dating sa SCTEx at TPLEx, sobrang swabe ng byahe. Pero pag exit si Pozurrubio, kabooooooom hanggang sa ilalim ng Bued Bridge (na isang major chokepoint gawa 4 lane poste highway eh naging 2 lanes ulit) going to Kennon Road.

    Natry na kasi namin yan last year. 5:00 AM kami umalis ng Pasig. Paglagpas pa lang ng Malinta Exit nagsimula na magbagal ang traffic. Yung luwas naman namin ng 2017 ganun rin. Mga 4:00 AM yata kami lumuwas. Inabot kami ng hapon o pagabi na pagdating ng Ilocos Sur. Though yun yung time na may nadaganan na UV express sa Kennon Road kaya nakadagdag sa traffic. Kung kaya naman tyagain, magdala na lang ng mga pagkain at toys para malibang ang mga chikiting kahit traffic.

    Kaya bumli kayo ng ganito. Si misis bumili nito exactly for the kids. Usually umaalis kami 3am or 4am papuntang norte. So diretso tulog sila sa sasakyan.

    Since the bottlenecks are the toll booths at the ends would it be better to exit sctex at tarlac then enter tplex again at the next toll gate? I do have a rfid for nlex/sctex but there are no rfid for tplex kasi.
