^thanks sis! i was leaning towards venetian talaga.. kaso medyo umatras ako nung walang free wifi sa agoda. so since meron naman pala, baka nga better na here na lang. sayang lang [textspeak!] freebies sa galaxy haha. thanks again:)

[karlz130]

ask ko lang kung magkano yung basic fare including terminal fee and tax, kung nov or by dec ako mag babyahe, kasi i'm planning to visit my girlfriend na based sa macau.

[gorgeous_me]

^terminal fee - 500
  travel tax - 1620
  tried mock booking in cebupac, MNL-Macau_MNL : 4,400 na, with 15kg baggage allowance
 
kung sure ka ng pupunta sa nov or dec, magbook ka na, para mas mura

[princess lorraine]

^^karlz130, cebu pac has an ongoing seat sale to macau. Travel period is from nov 2012 to january 2013.

Ah talaga? No wifi? Pero dibale na I was able to book overnight there for only 7K. Pwede na considering its venetian. They had a sale kasi 2 weeks ago for Sept 2012 - March 2013 travel period.  Sayang nga narealize ko sana nag 2 days na lang ako =(

May HKD 988 promo ngayon ang Galaxy - HKD1,136 including taxes and service charges so a little over P6k lang per night.  i have a reservation with Sintra P5k including buffet breakfast for two na.  Di pa ako maka decide which one to take.

^kung mas bongga ang room na gusto mo sis go ka na sa galaxy, since may promo sila. pero kung magandang location & simpleng tulugan lang, ok na ok ang hotel sintra.

[ceebee]

^thanks sis. sabagay pupunta kami ng macau para mamasyal at hindi para mag stay lang sa hotel para mag relax so mas ok na mag sintra.  and to add, sa galaxy charge agad sa credit card at non-refundable, yung reservation sa sintra pwede cancellation before 48 hours of actual travel at upon check-in or check out pa ang charge.

medyo bitin yung macau trip ko last week, halos half day lang kasi kami. ang pinuntahan lang namin ay fisherman's wharf, senado square, ruins of st paul and the venetian.  tanong ko lang (for future reference), how do you get to the venetian from senado square? nag taxi kasi kami.

Read this blog sis. I find this real helpful. I just don't know if applicable pa din though. =)

^^sis tinapay, lakad ka ng konti papuntang hotel sintra, sa tapat non may free shuttle ang COD, pagdating don tawid ka na lang sa venetian.

[janesjane]

sis, free talaga shuttle ng mga casino/hotels sa macau? 

[gorgeous_me]

^yup, free talaga siya, sakay ka lang ng sakay, hehe, yung ginastos lang siguro namin yung taxi papuntang hotel sintra from airport, kasi wala na kaming naabutan na free non, hehe
pero mas maganda kung lam mo na pupuntahan mo at sasakyan, para hindi sayang sa oras

[summer_princess]

Waaahh please help sis. Made a booboo. I booked Grand Lapa assuming we're arriving in Outer harbor ferry. Wrong move, from HKIA ang arrival pala naman is Taipa ferry which is the opposite of where our hotel is. I should've booked Venetian instead!

No shuttle service pa naman ang Lapa (Mandarin) in Taipa terminal. How do we get through the city kaya? I don't wanna avail the airport transfer... Which hotel should we ride from Taipa to get to the city? Obviously Venetian is out already

[cartman]

1 week na lang HK macau na namen. hindi ako prepared bilis ng panahon.

[kikaygimikera]

Naiinis ako kasi I was trying to book for Venetian. Torn between Asiatravel.com or mismong website. Nakakainis kasi pag click ko ng pay button sa Asiatravel, lumabas na [textspeak!] taxes and service charge. Ayun mas mura ng 1,800 pesos yung sa mismong website. And sa website mismo pwede pa mag cancel. Nakakainis!

[rocky]

^ay sayang naman sis, may additional charges kasi sa third party.

[tinapay]

^^sis tinapay, lakad ka ng konti papuntang hotel sintra, sa tapat non may free shuttle ang COD, pagdating don tawid ka na lang sa venetian.

City of Dreams ba yung COD sis?  di nga kami nakapunta dun pati sa Galaxy.  kulang na kasi sa time.  shuttle ba yun ng COD?  nakita ko nga yung hotel sintra, nasa gitna talaga sya ng mga happenings sa macau, hehe.

[rocky]

^yes sis, city of dreams nga. don mismo sa tapat ng sintra yong shuttle ng COD
