the best way to get to the domestic airport is to go to the taxi kiosk just outside of arrivals and before the arrivals extension at ninoy aquino airport it should cost about 100 peso also make sure you keep your baggage check from bkk as the philpinos check it when you exit the airport have fun :)

yes you need to go to the domestic airport which is near by but you will need to get a taxi one you clear customs change some money at the bank kiosks at arrivals then go get a taxi from the kiosk which is at arrivals (cebu pacific do provide a shuttle but its not worth the hassle) make sure you have plenty of time as the domestic airport is total chaos and the ques need to be seen to be believed ps in the philippines do not use travellers cheques no one wants to take them i had a hard time cashing amex cheques in aud at manilla airport atm cards and cash are ok

I would imho avoid manilla domestic airport like the plague it is asloute chaos at normal times and impossible at holidays in the pi it would be quicker to get a pick up from the hotel or the margarita station than go to the domestic airport and fly to clark

Hi Kb great report i will consider that geust house trip after next im staying in sio 10 at xmas

I just got back from 2 weeks staying in wing b no problems apart from the breakfast is rubbish but a quiet comfortable gf hotel i will stay there again

Hi yes your cell phone will work in the pi if it works in los i always just get a globe sim for mine in the pi and i used mine in los last xmas you should be able to get a room in the pi but many places will be fully booked check out balibago.com for agents ect well for angeles anyway have fun

I prefer a hotel that isnt in sight of the bars i frequent as the girls have eale eyes

I have been visiting pattaya since 1986 and have not yet had a problem the only part of my holiday where i have felt threatened is in adelaide australia where i have gone to catch the plane to los follow the advice from previous posters and sanuk

i spent xmas and new year 2005 in patters and intend to be there this year as well its great just book your hotel early :)

im going to patters april 8 ill let u know if the globetrotter is ok by all reports i have read it is great for the price

Too many To mention it cost me 1800 baht for a private car pick up in december but it was reliable but i think you can get a taxi meter for 1000 baht not sure about the reliability though i used the service from skaw beach hotel to air port 800 + 150 toll +100tip no probs good driver nitnoy angrit but cheerfull ontaxi@hotmail.com
