Manila International Airport Lounge:
The MIASCOR Lounge (NAIA Terminal 1)
In October 2013, when I took an international flight from NAIA Terminal 1, I was able to use the MIASCOR Lounge courtesy of my American Express Platinum card. The American Express Platinum card allows the cardholder (whether main or supplementary) plus 1 companion FREE entry to the MIASCOR lounge. For more details on this American Express card benefit, check it out here. It doesn't matter what airlines you use or what passenger class you're in, you can use this lounge as long as you're an American Express platinum cardholder, or a companion of a cardholder.
Select Citibank credit cards and accounts also offer this benefit for a limited time. For more details, check it out here.

MY TIP:
Make sure to arrive at the airport AT LEAST THREE (3) hours before your flight to be able to use this lounge. One (1) hour is spent checking-in and going through immigration, an hour and a half (1 1/2) to eat at the lounge and the remaining 30 minutes is for boarding.
If your airline departs from NAIA Terminal 1, you can use this lounge even if you're an economy class passenger if you are a cardholder of the American Express Platinum credit card.
