^Naku sis. Sana matapos na ang ban bukas. Kasi sa end of July ang scheduled trip namin. Grabe kung hindi pa ako nagGTalk, di ko pa malalaman!

Pahabol. Baka pwede kayong magrecommend ng van mga sis in Coron? Pls PM me. P130 per head, 2 lang kami. Oks lang din makisabay sa ibang group. Thanks!!

^sis you dont need to have a contact na for van, madaming van sa airport na pwede niyo sakyan

[clermont]

^thanks sis eeatrice! I'll take note of that. Okay ba sa Mommita's Lodge?

I just read this thread, meron na palang mga banned na sites sa Coron. I remember pa naman nung nag Coron kami last July 2011, super nag enjoy ako sa Kayangan lake kasi dun lang yata hindi maalat yung tubig, hehe. Yun nga lang, namamahalan ako sa dami ng kailangan bayaran sa mga entrance fee, inabot yata ng 1k yung binayad namin para sa lahat ng sites. Samantalang sa El Nido, 200 lang ang kailangan bayaran valid for 10 days na yun at makakapunta ka kahit saang island.

Nweys, sana maayos na nila yan, wala na halos mapupuntahan ang tourist kung naka-ban na yung mostly pinupuntahan ng tao.

waaaahhh!!! ngayon ko lang nabasa that Coron was featured in Nat Geo's Islands Insider!!! last June 23 daw pinalabas!!! how come i haven't heard any buzz prior to June 23?? i missed it!!! medyo weird rin lang na walang nakatunog sa sisses here (or di lang na-post? hehe).. pero mukhang wala ito sa regular Nat Geo channel.. kasi i checked the channel guide of Sky Cable, wala eh.. sa mga nakakaalam, saang Nat Geo channel ito?

anyway, i'm trying to find the episode in the internet, can't find one. ang nakita ko lang sa youtube ay 1-minute trailer... huhuhu... pls share naman yung URL if may makita kayo..

anyway, mga sister, san kayo kumuha ng tour packages nyo??

[huit]

Kami kay kuya charlie, member siya ng coron-busunga tour operator pero nagffreelance din sya. we contacted him directly so hindi na name dumaan ng mga touring companies. okay siya, maasikaso at magaling. =)

[ellyse]

^^
Actually sob rang daming nagoofer ng tour package sa coron, sis. Sad lang na banned na pala yung mga magagandang lugar dun. must see pa naman ang Twin Lagoon at Kayangan Lake. Anyway, you may check this link I saw online for some list of tour operators and guides. http://roadtripsapinas.blogspot.com/2012/07/coron-philippines-last-paradise-4-days.html  Hope this helps.

[sclur_wanderlust]

mga sis, tignan nyo tong link na to: http://pcij.org/stories/1998/coron.html . oh my!

[meimei]

^^sis ellyse, clarify ko lang, hindi kasama ang Kayangan Lake sa banned. Pero yung Twin Lagoons, kasama. Waaaaahhhh!!!

^sis sclur_wanderlust, medyo luma na yung article na yan, 1998 pa.. hehe latest update:

[iamjoei]

^^When sya naban? Baka nalift na. We were there mga 3 weeks ago? Alam ko it has to do with parang sacres yung places na iba so bawal tourists. I know Twin Lagoons isnt one of them. Not sure though but parang the tribes are open to tourists naman in that area

[meimei]

^starting July 1. so kung 3wks ago kayo andun, di kayo inabutan ng ban. kami na lang ang inabutan - mga tourists after July 1!!!!

[Dukhang Adbenturera]

oh no! nakakasad tong news na to. dito namin planong maghoneymoon, tapos ganyan pa.

              those who had just come back from Coron taking Cebu Pac air, how long po ang usual delay ng 1:40 pm flight from coron to mla?

             thanks so much po

[huit]

hmmmm....kami dati, pero March pa yun ha. On time naman. Yun yung time na halos lahat delayed eh. Air Phil sobrang delayed that time pero luckily CebuPac okay naman.

[hottie]

         Thanks sis huit.hopefully on time sya or kung ma delay man sana minutes lang.we have a plane to catch at 6:55 pm on that same day departing for taipei naman.Our time flight is supposed to be at 10:30 pm,i got an email from cebu pac telling me that our flight schedule will be changed to 6:55 pm. . for sure takbuhan kami sa airport nito.

[meimei]

^mag-web check-in ka na lang sis, for your taipei flight, para you'll just drop your baggage - mas mabilis, mas maikli ang pila. (i can relate sa experience mo sa Cebu Pac, though hindi sa Coron flight, na biglang nag-change ng flight date - take note: "date", as in na-move ng isang araw - it messed up my plans)
