    Nonetheless and although 90% of their flights are on time, mas marami pa rin ang sumasakay ng PAL. Isa pa, sayang ang miles.

    but if you fly with PAL, don't expect to arrive on time...plane-always-late.

    buti nalang safe mga passengers and they didnt panic=)

    my last flight with pal was good, we entered at the vip entrance,plane is loading are still waiting for us, masyadong vip ang treatment, nahihiya nga ako, i dont know if our ticket wass sponsored by mr lucio tan, kulang nalang kasi pati seat ng pilot kami ang umupo, we were off to bicol that day for a medical mission, lucio tan was one of those generous sponsor of the sad organization, kaya ala magawa yung sa counter kundi accomodate kami.

    anyway, i did come on time i wasnt late, nahihiya lang ako sa ibang kasama ko kasi late sila, pero baggage wasnt checked much, and lastly ontime ang pag alis ng plane, tipong after loading us, alis na yun plane

    tska good pilot ang pal, stay that way

    Cebu Pacific din na le-late din. Last time na nagpunta kami sa Davao via CB, 2 hrs na late, then nung pauwi kami, almost 1 hr naman na late.

    all fell silent and holding their breaths 'til we landed roughly sa domestic. 2 hours later, we boarded another replacement asian spirit (same model)

    sa asian spirit, napakalakas ng ingay ng engine as in para kang nakakarinig ng nag-drill ng semento all throughout the trip. kabahan ka pag nawala yun sound na yun
    Hindi ba sa Asian Spirit, pag sumakay ka, spirit ka na lang paglabas?

    Coming back naman, while reducing altitude, biglang init ng cabin sabay choppy ang decent. Ayun, ang daming sumuka ng sabay sabay. Nilabas nila ang snacks at pomelo juice na na serve earlier. :puke1:

    i read in another forum sometime before. isang asian spirit bound for Bora, pagdating sa Caticlan at pa-landing na sila as in nakababa na landing gears and runaway was just 3 floors away. Pilot had to announce na ulet ulit kasi hindi daw natansya. all were clapping after the announcement.

    Hehe. Kaya ako sa Seaair ako sumasakay. Yung plane mukhang lokbu outside on my first flight pero a couple of rich 10 year olds told me they'd been flying it all over then country for years without a hitch. After several years na din, I'm convinced ... their engine maintenance is way better than their upholstery maintenance.

    Probably -- pero hataw pa din dahil wala pa akong na-experience na ganoon with any other airline. Baka yung iba pag ganun yung situation binabagalan to save on gas?
