yung lalaking IO na nakakabusit na natapatan ko dati sya na naman sana ang matatapatan ko when we travelled last month ay naku deadma talaga ako. kahit na kaway na sya ng kaway para lumapit ako sa kanya busy-busyhan ang drama ko. mega yuko ako at hinintay ko talagang may matapos na ibang IO saka ako dun nagmamadaling nagpunta. swerte din kasi yung napuntahan ko walang tanong. basta tiningnan lang passport ko at ticket saka tinatakan na.

isasama ko mom ko on my next trip to HK in May. it's her first trip abroad and she's a housewife so siguro hndi naman cya masyadong ku-questionin as long as sabihin ko (just in case tanungin ng IO) na ako naman ang sasagot sa lahat ng expenses nya for the trip (which is true naman dahil treat ko naman un sa kanya). it will be my 3rd out of the country trip but my mom's first so I was kinda worried because we're booked sa cebupac (terminal 3), na medyo may kahigpitan ang IOs, but on my previous trips, never pa naman ako na-question or anything. friends naman ang kasama ko nung mga previous trips ko.

^ usually pag matanda na, di na tinatanong kung bakit sila lalabas. just be ready with your reservations with the hotel and the tickets.  :)

last semestral break, nag travel younger brother ko on his own. nasa college pa siya. tinanong kung anong reason kung bakit pupunta ng Singapore. sabi niya to visit my sister pero parang pinag tulungan pa siya ng dalawang IO (yung nag accommodate sa kanya and yung sa kabilang booth). tinanong pa kung anong course niya, sabi niya Computer Science tas biglang "ay naku".  Nairita talaga ako nung narinig ko ang kwento from my brother. Kawawa kasi he didn't know what to do. For one, he's been outside the country several times and went to Singapore for 5 times already. and he's an undergrad, for Pete's sake!! just because ganun course niya, maghahanap na agad ng trabaho?  >:(

^ usually pag ganyan kasi, akala nila maghahanap ng work.  kaya there is really a need to show them your IDs (ex. company ID pag nagwowork ka or school ID pag nagaaral pa).  Madami din kasing mga Pinoy na ang ginagawa kunyari tourist tapos yon pala naghahanap ng work.  kaya lahat tuloy tayo napagdududahan ng mga IO.  Madami kasing mga TNT na pinoy kaya minsan nakakairita talaga.  Kasalanan ng iba, lahat damay.  Mga pinoy talaga!

^ i know but still, bakit hihirit ng ganyan, eh sinabi na nga na student pa. and it was not his first time to go out of the country, they can see the passport stamps. i know they're safeguarding "us" filipinos, but they should be careful in handling people. they're one of the reasons why traveling in our country is difficult.  ::)

OA lang talaga IO dito satin

last time I traveled w/ my co-worker, magkaiba kami ng pinilahan na IO
di ako na question, pinakita ko lang ID ko, then tatak na
yung kasama ko, sya ang na question, then another IO tuloy yung nag interview samin
hay kaloka lang, yung employee ID namin walang name ng FIRM, and hindi nya pa kilala
hahahaha, kaloka yung IO na yun, pero keri lang alam ko naman na okay pa din naman, wag lang padadaig sa mga yan, yun lang ang technique dyan. ^^

^The rule is your passport should be valid at least 6 months from the day of your departure. Though there are cases that I know na napapayagan but better not risk it. To be sure renew your passport na lang before you leave.

^^ kasi siguro feeling nila wala kang pera for the trip at mag hahanap ka ng work dunm, kaya ka nasa budget airline. assuming lang sila. kasi naman yung ibang tao, talagang umaalis para mag hanap ng work sa ibang bansa. yun lang naman ang iniiwasan nila. yun nga lang hassle masyado for all of us. kasi kahit na mag vacation ka, job hunting agad naiisip nila na purpose ng trip mo.

pero nung last trip ko last feb sa hk, cebu pacific yung airline. ok naman yung IO. medyo natagalan lang kasi parang nakikipag kwentuhan yung IO. dati daw kasi dun sya nag stay sa hotel na naka book kami. nag share lang sya ng experience nya about the hotel. at dahil dyan natakot yata yung friend ko kasi matagal daw ako. hahaha!

if gipit sa time, pwede ka magpa extend ng passport validity, one or two working days lang yun. about 2 years yata ibibigay sayo na extension.

I also did that with my helper last year. I cannot recall how much I paid exactly, but it was around 300 pesos.

^ for me, mas strict ang IO ng NAIA 3 kesa sa Clark, well, as long as complete papers mo.  Yong sa nakasabay namin non na mga papunta KL na sabi nila e mag-aaral sila dito sa KL, parang hinold ng IO kasi nga di ata complete ang papers.  Ke hubby naman non, nakwento ko na rin dito na tinanong pa love story namin (which is not related naman sa pagpunta niya dito for training), kasi nga sabi bat daw dito pa sa KL ang training etc.  Sa sister ko naman nong pinapunta ko dito, sabi bat daw magkaiba ang flight niya papunta KL (AA) at pabalik ng Pinas (CP).  E complete naman ang papers ni sister, and she even showed her company ID, ayon, ok naman.

^ as long as you have all proper documents for your travel (air ticket, hotel bookings, etc), no problem with that.
