When I flew to Manilla in November it was $1200.00 for a round trip ticket. I was checking

for a one way ticket from Manila to Kansas City and it is $1100.00. I don't know why it

costs the same for one way as round trip. Has anyone found any travel deals out there?

Thanks

Richie

But be careful buying a round-trip and only using the first half, some airlines are now charging a fee for NOT using the second half!

(of course I now hear they are charging extra if you want to sit on the INSIDE of the plane! :P )

Hi Richie, Yes its true that there are discounts given by Phil travel agencies if they know you are a first-time immigrant. Like for me, my POE is SFO. I got a one way ticket via PAL for only $765 whereas other travel agencies were quoting me at $1000++ for the same one-way ticket. Maybe your girlfriend can canvass for a good deal then just send her the money.
