I think you will have to pay a tax on the plane ticket. I also booked ShaSha ticket from the US. We just decided to have her keep about 3000 pesos with her at the airport to pay anything that may come up and have money for food also. Better to be safe then sorry. Keep in touch with us. It would be great to have a Filipina friend local for ShaSha to talk with or hang out.

My POE was LAX last December,2007. It took about 45 minutes to fall in line and the Immigration officer was nice and the questions he asked were easy.He took the sealed brown envelope from the Embassy, took one part of the I-94 I filled out on the plane and staple the other part to my passport, reminded me to get married within 90 days and wished me good luck in my new life here. I had ample time to get to Terminal 8 to catch my connecting flight.Don't be shy to ask for direction if you find the airport somewhat confusing :). Have a safe trip and welcome to USA :)

I avoid Los Angeles Airport like the plaugue.

I hate it, it's over crowded, and a total zoo 24/7.

San Fransico is so much better, and Las Vegas is great as well.

For a Philippine National you will feel right at home at LAX.

My tickets were also purchased online. I thought I still have to pay the travel tax but then they only asked me for P750 terminal fee at NAIA. My POE was LAX and I did not have any problems at all. It just takes a long time to wait in line. If you have questions where to go and such not, there are uniformed employees walking around that will answer them.
