It all depends on your final destination. On arrival to manila its 1-2 nights until test results. Then you are free.....kind of. If you stay in Manila generally you won’t have to quarantine. They may recommend it but nobody is tracking you. This has been what has occurred with a few people arriving last week. However if you have booked any Airbnb’s in Manila you may have to do another covid test. That’s why it will help to print your negative test results. 
 

if you plan to leave Manila and go to the province this is when the real fun starts. Some areas you may be able to do a “loose quarantine” at home without any follow up. Some areas will require a strict quarantine in a Govt facility. I can tell you for sure that cagayan has a 10 day quarantine in a government facility. Tacloban has a 14 day quarantine in a government facility. If going south to leyte after your 14 day quarantine your free but need your documents for checkpoints. If going north to Samar you will be asked to do a 7 day home quarantine on top of the 14 day quarantine in tacloban. 
 

However it’s near the end of the month so everything will be changed again. Hopefully Manila moves to the least restrictive quarantine which there are rumors they might.  Despite all this it’s best to check the day before you travel for changes.

Dang, That sounds like a nightmare

 

Me I usually land in Manila, Spend a few days there resting up and enjoying the nightlife.  Then I will pick a place to visit for about a  week, I usually just hop a plane with no reservations and land there and figure it out. My next destinations I have on my to do list is  Siargao.  After that I fly back to Manila grab what luggage I left checked into the hotels luggage hold area and fly to Davao City.  Usually spend a week there riding motorbikes over the southern area of Mindanao. see old friends and acquaintances and then fly into Manila for the last few days to wait for my Sunday flight back to the USA.  Sunday always has the lightest traffic in Manila area.  

 

So with the silly lockdowns and quarantines being so different in each city, It would be futile for me to travel there.   I can't imagine being stuck in one city or area for the entire 30 days.  Plus who  knows what hotels are opened now of days, and what city has liquor bans, and for sure I am not wearing a mask/faceshield when I go outside, that is just silly...

yes. And actually it can be broken down to individual cities or barangays as well. Its a complete disaster.  It’s why so many foreigners have left. If your going back for travel I wouldn’t even go back now. As you said, hotels could be closed, restaurants, etc.  In order for me to get my son and avoid quarantines plus the under age 21 restrictions is Im going to get him out at sea.  Feels like a human trafficker.   It’s absolutely completely ridiculous but they are extremely strict at the quarantines and no way around it even for a very brief period.
