    i'm a very nervous flyer, but i have to admit my flying experience has been quite pleasant all in all.

    Worst experience was when our plane was kept waiting on the tarmac for about 30 minutes. Can't remember anymore whether it was the seats, the weak airconditioning, etc. but it was the first time i got irritated on a plane. Then around 3 foreigners boarded the plane and we left immediately.

    The captain said the delay was due to recalculation/rebalancing of some crap...but i think the three stooges were the cause

    may kilala ako na takot sumakay ng aeroplano. madaldal siya pero pag sakay ng aeroplano mas tahimik pa sa pipi.

    a bag painfully dropped on my head from the overhead cabin compartment when the plane landed at naia. dunno if the matronic lady owner of the bag was to blame but showing a bit of remorse or sympathy would've been great

    having said that, anyone here have had a bad experience flying w/ air asia? o pareho lang din naman sila sa cebu pac?

    AA FA uniforms are "better" ...

    BTT:

    I experienced the worst kind of turbulence flying out of Bacolod last year. If it occured with the seatbelt lights off, a lot of injuries would've resulted. I let out an involuntary "hijodefuta" when that happened ...

    Have you guys experienced landings where the plane is askew? Tabingi ... personal observation ko lang, most Cebgo pilots do that. For what reason, I don't know.

    Also with the Cebgo guys, mabilis pa ang eroplano after just landing, sabay biglang liko sa kaliwa, going to terminal 3.

    The time when we were stuck on the runway for an hour...thenpilot said me nirerecalculate lang daw. Pinahinaan din nila yung aircon.

    The funny thing is, after an hour or so a group of foreigners boarded the plane. Not long after, nag take off na kami. You do the math.

    My worst flight experience was in Enroute no Narita. From Philippines to Tokyo there is this flight route used by American airlines and Delta na medyo ma-turbulent. During thst flight, most people were asleep and then the plane was ascending at almost a 45 degree angle, I felt the lack of oxygen and i was trying to wake up both my wife and dad and it seemed that they passed out, the cabin had no more airconditiing. It seems the plane has redirected all power to the engine. We were passing a storm. There is a storm area kasi between us and Japan na notorious eh, it's called the devil's triangle. Yes, mayroon tayo version of Bermuda triangle dito sa Asia, And when you plot the latitude of the Bermuda Triangle, Japan's Devil Triangle and the Pyramids of Egypt, they are all in parallel.

    So next time you go to Japan, always remember na most planes pass the Devil's triangle

    That is why I'm NEVER flying Cebu pacific even for free. I've heard too many horror stories to risk it and it's also out of principle because according to all the horror stories, this company has absolutely no respect for its passengers. SM and Cebu Pacific are two companies I hate with a passion. And my ex also told me riding Cebu pacific is like riding a bus on EDSA (may nagtitinda daw ng mani, don't know if he was joking or this is true)

    Which movie is this OB?

    Cathy, not all Cebgo flights are bad.

    Of course there are a few exceptions.

    Kahit naman PAL meron din faux pas kung minsan.

    None for me except one time coming home from Japan, checked in luggage took 2 hours to arrive. Akala namin pinagpipilian na ng ground crew yung laman ng luggage. Flight was PAL.

    Sa akin, noong sumakay ng plane na may sipon ako.
    Noong nasa ere na, since pressurized ang cabin, naramdaman ko na parang hinihigop ng pump ung hangin sa tainga ko. I can hear the sssshhhhh sound through my ears. Unti unting nawala ang pandinig ko hanggang sa wala na akong marinig. Ininom ko na lahat ng tubig, nilunok ko na lahat ng laway ko pero bingi pa rin ako. Ung 1hr+ flight felt like 1yr+. Nung tumayo ako para mag-cr, muntik akong matumba sa bigat ng ulo ko. It was very agonizing. Ayoko nang maulit.

    That's interesting. I was flying NorthWest or JAL-UA for many years and now Delta mostly via Narita, no such encounter....

    Not mani but they sell junk food(jack & jill, what else) at hotel prices.

    Medyo lacking yung facilities nila sa naia-3. In my last flight inabutan kami ng ulan pag land. Ground crew were handing umbrellas to passengers as they boarded the shuttle bus. Through the window i saw some baggage get soaked in the rain.

    Ang hirap din pag matanda/disabled. One time 4 ground crew hosted a lolo in a wheelchair up the ramp. Pag me nadapa na isa....disgrasya.


    That's why we never book CebuPac pag me kasamang senior.

    Fafa, just google the devil's triangle. It's a group of Japanese Islands in a triangular form where many ships and planes are lost, it was discovered in World war 2, when some allied ships got lost on their way from the Invasion of Japan while coming from the Philippines,

    Apparently, even the Japanese are keeping it a secret as they too lost a lot of ships there,

    If say you approach from HK or China or Korea, hindi mo dadaanan yun. Tayo lang coming from the Philippines or Indonesia or malaysia,

    So since na-mention ang Cebu Pacific dito, and knowing the Gokongwei group na tinipid lahat, they'd use this flight route. Kita mo yun nangyari na-shot down na Malaysian airline sa Russia Ukraine kasi nagtioid Malaysia air, ayun na shot-down.

    Delta kasi they really use this route because they are familiar with the magnetic anomalies of the area coz US navy feeds them info. Pero Cebu Pacific, ewan ko lang.

    Ay sorry im calling it devil's triangle pero dragon's triangle pala

    http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2011/TRA...s.triangle.jpg

    And here ar the deadliest triangles in the world. No 20 is the Pyranids of Efgypt na meron din magnetic anomalies. They say when a plane flya over the pyramids, nagluluko ang controls

    http://www.vortexmaps.com/images/12icopoints.jpg

    Notice also the triangle esst of Australia, that is where Lost TV Series is based on. Marami din nawawala duon as well as the setting of Kong Skull Island

    Anobakayo, travel kayo ng travel hindi nyo alam to hindi ba kayo nag-view ng inflight satellite lfight plan sa seats nyo. You must inform yourself. That's why I always travel with shoes flashlight and a bottle of water.

    Bro sa second picture Devil's Triangle ang label - you're correct!

    Usually kasi the air turbulence is more pronounced from Narita to the US dahil open body of water na, based on my travel experiences... That is why you have to wear your seatbelt all the time.... I believe there are at least a couple of incidences where the passengers hit the roof of the plane and at least one death, forcing the plane to return to Japan....
