OnMyWay 12,942 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 https://www.rappler.com/nation/249103-taal-volcano-phreatic-explosion-january-12-2020 Wonderful. We are going to a wedding in Sta Rosa Wednesday. @intrepid Heading your way Wednesday for a niece's wedding. Wish I could hook up but it will be a quick trip due to kid's school. Driving to BILs house in Sta. Rosa, late Tuesday, wedding at 1 pm Wednesday and then heading home after / during the reception. "Eat & run". My older daughter is going on her overnight "recollection" Thursday so we have to get back ASAP. Not sure what time to leave Tuesday. We can leave at 3 and that puts us smack dab in the middle of Manila rush. Or leave at 6 and get to Manila around 8ish, then onto Sta Rosa. Any advice for getting to Sta Rosa on Tuesday?

Snowy79 5,367 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 It's looking pretty bad for the Taal area. I've attached a photo taken from Puerto Galera a good 70km away. 6 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Gary D 3,173 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 As I mentioned. in other posts we are currently in Dumaguete. Two of my wife's cousins are due to joint us Wednesday, looks like that may not happen now. Hopefully it will have cleared up by Saturday so we can fly back. You would think they could divert to Clark, or would that be too easy. Link to post Share on other sites
Marvin Boggs 923 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 As i understand it, Clark and Cebu are still fully operational. People needing to fly may consider factoring Cebu Airways into their plans. This carrier doesn't pop up on my go-to travel site (expedia), so we always end up booking on their website directly if we want to fly with them. Link to post Share on other sites
