Pettersson Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 You wait either on board the aircraft or in the terminal until flight operations in Manila return to normal. Hopefully they remember to prepare sandwiches and drinks. Couple of weeks ago my Cebu Pacific flight from Tacloban to NAIA was delayed by 3 hours due to equipment delay. Cebu Pacific treated us a dinner of Jollibee chicken and a box drink. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pettersson Posted January 9, 2015 Author Posted January 9, 2015 Just found also PAL listing of cancelled flights. They are canceling a total of 71 flights between 15th and 19th including several international ones, but my flight from LAX is not in the cancelled list. :dance: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pettersson Posted January 16, 2015 Author Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Just an update how things went: my arriving PAL flight was only 8 minutes late at 8 PM, just one hour past the airport closure. The terminal seemed less crowded than usually. The streets between the airport and northern Cavite had relatively light traffic so our drive only took 45 minutes vs the typical hour or more that time of the day. So far so good and no "papal trouble" whatsoever. Edited January 16, 2015 by Pettersson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the crowd and traffic moved on with the Pope although he may have blessed your trip :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
