Is it true?

[Steve and Evelyn 0]

Hello!

My fiancee was told by a friend of hers who also used K-1 Visa process that she must purchase her ticket from an government approved travel agency. Is this true? Is so maybe you have a link for those agencies? I want to of course make sure she can travel to the states with me on the same flight and sitting next to each other! Arranging flights and seats can be a little challenging when buying tickets from two different places. I will buy mine over the internet once I find the lowest fares. Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

Thank you!

I bought Jean's ticket from a travel agent in the US.

That is not true. She or you can purchase ticket on any travel agency in PH or US or purchase tickets online.

Happy trip!

hello.

i came in the US through k-1 too. my now-husband bought our tickets through internet and it's a packaged one so it's cheaper.

they may be advising you to buy a ticket in the Philippines coz the cost would usually cover the travel tax imposed on filipinos leaving the country. whereas if you buy the ticket abroad, you would be asked to pay travel tax in the airport like i did. the travel tax is around PhP1600.

so there's no problem if you'd buy tickets in the US so you could be sure that you have the same flight. seating arrangement is you usually done in the airport when you check in so you should be early to get the seats you prefer.

good luck on your travel. have a safe journey.

that is not true you can buy it anywhere. That rumor could come from a law that states that you have to purchase DOMESTIC airline tickets in Philippines. You know how things go a rumor always changes from person to person

I tried booking a domestic flight from manila to cebu from a US travel agent and found it couldn't be done the itenerary was on the system but THe agent was blocked from booking the flights after an hour of trying to get it booked found out that domestic flights can only be booked in phils or by a phils travel agent not foreign

That's not true! It's a lot easier if you buy 2 tickets online at the same time. You can pick the date, time and etc.

Have a safe trip!
