I wasn't aware of such a tax. I knew about the departure tax for anyone travelling out but not about this other tax. My fiance and I are scheduled to depart Manila on a flight leaving at 6am. Will there be an office in the airport that is open at that time to accept a payment? Can we pay it somewhere prior to arriving at the airport? What is the best way to handle this? Thanks for any info

There is a counter at the front of the terminal between the two entrance doors (with the scanners) where you can pay the travel tax, it only took my wife a couple minutes to get that paid and handled.
