^ Just saw that, too. I informed my friends na. Although no sale na sa mga specific dates we booked, pero puwede sila humabol.

Hopefully the local government has a program in mind to preserve the beauty and purity of Batanes. Double edged sword kasi ang improved accessibility.

sama ako sis matet for next year travel. dapat summer season tayo para less ang risk na macancel ang flight. iba kasi ang panahon sa batanes, pag super hangin di makakaland ang airplane. maliit din ang runway nila.

backreading is the key to a successful trip ;D

kahit 4d/3n lang. 2 days tour sa batan island at 1 day tour sa sabtang island.

parang ganito
1st day - arrival at basco, start tour batan island.
2nd day - travel to sabtang island, tour
3rd day - travel back to batan island, tour ulit
4th day - uwian na.

PAL will start flying to Basco thru PALexpress starting May 1.. Yippee!!! More flight options mean competitive airfares, more affordable tour packages, makatao na rates! :D :) But Im trying to do mock booking, kahit one-way, has anyone had luck with it? Hindi pa yata open no?

Dream ko rin dito pumunta but when I checked, para akong pumunta ng HK sa mahal.. Sana nga mas maging mura yung airfare because of PAL. And yung mga pwede sana pag stayan maging okay rin ang rate

^^ I just tried now, available na flights nang PAL Express to Basco, May 6 at the earliest.
RT fare costs around 16K pa rin if Express Deal.
I think some sisses he got a good deal last February na nag-sale ang AirPhil (which we all know PAL Express na ngayon).

BTW, may sale sa Skyjet at 5,900 one way for travel between June and September.   :)

Thanks for the heads up about Skyjet. But I was hoping for a "better" deal. :)
