Hong Kong Guide (Thread 43)

^Baka na-move since ang sabi safer daw and less likely to cancel kapag early morning ang flight to and from HK.

[purple_girl]

^baka nga yun yung reason bakit nila minove.

[crzysxycl]

^Oo nga sis, baka kasi mas safe pag morning ang flight. Follow Hong Kong Edition and South China Morning Post in FB for updates sis.

[purple_girl]

^thanks sis! baka hindi na lang din kami mag push through this october, para kasing instead na mag settle down lalong nagiging magulo ang situation. ang hirap mag risk, most especially kasama ko daughter ko. yun lang asked cathay regarding cancellation and refund and mukhang goodbye na sa airfare at yung cancellation fee equal lang din sa binayad kong fare so parang quits lang kami.

[mysterioza_me]

^Sa Cathay ba hindi sila nagre-refund for the reason na inilipat ang flight ninyo ng ibang schedule (atleast an hour flight difference sa ibang airlines pwede na magcancel si customer without incurring a cancellation fee)

[purple_girl]

^i think they do kaya lang kasi error ko from my end was i already accepted the new sched before ko na-check yung updates sa protest. sana mag-change pa ulit yung flight habang palapit yung sched para ma cancel ko without the fees.

[mysterioza_me]

^Awww sana mabago pa ang sked or mas mabuti na sana matapos na ang protesta para matuloy kayo.

[purple_girl]

^sana nga ma change sched or better yet maayos yung gulo. naiisip ko nga what if kumuha ako ng insurance, may chance kaya na marefund/mareimburse ko part ng cost ng airfare and hostel reservation?

[mysterioza_me]

^Ang alam ko sis hindi na, kasi yan din sana gagawin ko last june dahil muntik na kami di matuloy sa lakad namin. Kaso nabasa ko na dapat nakuha na ang insurance before nag-occur ang reason ng cancellation and may specific reasons lang na nakalagay. Pero call mo din sa insurance company to inquire.

My friends who live there informed me that yesterday a police already used his gun. and teargas and water cannon daw to disperse the rally since naging violent daw   protester daw kasi threw a petrol bomb

sis, credit card ba ginamit mo pang book? baka pwede mo check kung may kasamang insurance. minsan kasi covered yung cancellation ng flight. parang nagiging malala nga. pero try mo pa rin check muna updates sis. kung ano't ano man, safety first.

[purple_girl]

^thanks sis! sige, will check with metrobank.

@mysterioza_me thanks sis! will check with them.

Any update kaya if safe na mag travel sa Hong Kong?

[mommynin8]

Supposedly ireretract daw yung extradition bill ni Carrie Lam.  Abangan kung kelan at ano magiging effect nito sa government and the tourism industry.

[IAMkrish]

Oo ng sis, kaka labas lang ng news ngayon. Buti naman para ma tigil na protesters. Planning to go to HK in November.

[purple_girl]

sana nga ma-pacify ang protesters with the withdrawal of the bill, although ang alam ko may other demands pa sila bukod sa bill withdrawal. sana lang maging enough to kahit papano.

[chicafabulosa]

Last week ive heard nagsunog daw mga protesters at wan chai. buti na lang last summer when we went there, natapos na namin close down yung business ni hubby dun. Nasense nya magiging magulo na since it will be under China na talaga

[curlylass]

Read some news na mukhang idi-disregard na raw extradition bill.

[omneecka]

Magiging maayos na uli sa HK, yey!
☺️☺️☺️

[mommynin8]

Nagkagulo din last weekend sa Tung Chung, me mga sinunog at sinira sila sa MTR station.  Last July dun pa kami nagstay malapit sa  outlets, sa Novotel... sana maayos nga nila lahat ng gulo dun.
