    PAL pak....Bizarre...

    Manila Bulletin – Mon, Jan 26, 2015

    It was virtually a scene plucked out of a movie: A middle-aged, penniless woman leaves her hometown and successfully flies off to distant foreign land without a passport and without paying her airfare.

    In the case of Leah Castro Reginio, fact is indeed stranger than fiction.

    Reginio, reportedly in her late 30’s and a native of Antique province, flew to Incheon International Airport, one of the largest and busiest airports in the world, from Kalibo International Airport, for free and without any travel documents via Philippine Airlines flight 490 that departed last Thursday afternoon.

    All thanks to a sloppy security at one of the airports serving Boracay.

    According to unimpeachable sources at the said airport, Reginio breezed through the labyrinth of what was supposed to be a tight airport security cordon from the entrance gate, the immigration and even at the boarding gate manned by airline ground personnel.
    The sources exclusively informed Manila Bulletin that while on board the PAL flight bound for Seoul, Reginio was also served with inflight meals just like a regular passenger. While onboard the plane, she even requested the flight attendant to bring her a blanket.

    SEOUL SECURITY

    But when she landed at the Incheon International Airport, Reginio was seen loitering inside the primary airport serving the Seoul Capital Area. When questioned by Korean airport authorities, the Aklan-native failed to produce a passport or any travel document.
    Immediately, she was escorted to board the return flight of PAL to Kalibo.

    However, sources said PAL flight officers initially refused to board Reginio back to the Philippines when the latter was endorsed to them by Korean authorities, reportedly arguing that she was not listed in their passenger manifest.

    This reportedly prompted the Korean airport officers to review the monitoring cameras which showed Reginio emerging out from PR 490 shortly after it landed in Incheon at around 845 p.m. (Korea time).

    On her return flight, Reginio was again provided with inflight meals.

    CAAP PROBE

    As soon as the plane landed back in Kalibo, Reginio was turned over to Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) authorities where she was held for questioning.

    During investigation, CAAP officials reportedly had a hard time extracting information from Reginio who was merely smiling and not answering a single question.

    She subsequently admitted that she was able to enter the Kalibo airport and board the flight for free along with other passengers mostly Korean nationals who just came from their vacation in Boracay.

    Boracay is a popular destination for Koreans specially during winter season, which necessitates PAL to fly daily between Kalibo and Incheon.

    When asked the number of her children, Reginio’s reply further puzzled the investigators: “I have more than four and a half, but not less than three.”

    This prompted the CAAP officials to trace her relatives in Antique who informed them that Reginio is suffering from schizophrenia, a mental disorder often characterized by abnormal social behavior and failure to recognize what is real.

    Papaano nakapasok iyan sa airport/airline check security,- door security, checkin counter, (customs and) immigration(fill up immigration card), final check for boarding pass at final gate? Wala bang terminal fee sa Kalibo (Intl Airport)?

    Whew! ang daming control points,- pero nakalusot!

    di pala normal ang pagiisip ni reginio. akala nya ang pagsakay sa PAL ay parang pagsakay sa jeepney lang papuntang quiapo. Hehe...itong PAL naman kala nila makakalusot sila sa korean authorities na di daw kasama si reginio sa passenger manifest pero nung ireview ang CCTV sa icheon, bingo!!! nakita sya galing nga sa flight PR 490 . kala nyo makakalusot kayo sa korean eh hi tech ang incheon facilities nila palibhasa baka lang wala ata kasing CCTV inside NAIA. eka nga only in the philipines.... Hehe

    Ang totoong dahilan kaya nahuli iyan sa Incheon Airport ay dahil nangggulo iyan doon...

    Hinahanap niya kasi ang tsinelas na hinubad niya bago siya sumakay ng eroplano sa Kalibo Airport.... :hysterical:

    "On her return flight, Reginio was again provided with inflight meals."


    Bakit ba paulit ulit binanggit itong in flight meals na ito sa news article?
    Eh malamang mabibigyan yan kasi nasa eroplano na. Hindi naman nagtse-check na travel docs sa loob ng plane.
    Anu ba naman itong mga reporter na ito tsk tsk tsk

    di ka naman makakapasok don kung wala kang boarding pass..

    malamang yan hindi don sa loob nang airport pumasok... baka sa gate don sa Kalibo Airport diretso sa plane.. nakalusot don.. tapos diretso akyat sa airplane.. minsan di naman mahigpit pag check sa boarding pass pag nasa plane na kasi alam nila na check na don sa airport.. eh since hindi puno ang plane.. basta na lang umupo kung saan.. so nakalusot hindi nasita..
