SINGAPORE: CHEAPEST AIRPORT TRANSPORT OPTION if you're landing at CHANGI AIRPORT at MIDNIGHT

SINGAPORE: CHEAPEST AIRPORT TRANSPORT OPTION if you're landing at CHANGI AIRPORT at MIDNIGHT

There are many reasons why Filipino passengers take late night flights to Singapore: 

1. To avoid taking leaves from work just to take the flight. 
- They can go to work during the day on a Friday, then take a late night flight to Singapore after work to spend the weekend there, then return early Monday morning to go to work. A lot of budget airlines allow you to do that. 

2. Red eye flights and late night flights are usually the cheapest flight. 

3. The earlier flight you booked was delayed. 

If you arrive at midnight, you have only 3 options because the MRT is closed by then and the last airport bus leaves the airport at 11pm. Operating hours of the MRT is from 530am to 12 midnight. 

These 3 options are:

1.Grab car

2. Klook pre-booked private airport transfers

3. Transport service at the ground transport concierge of the airport.


As you have seen in the above examples, the cheapest option is to  book Grab.

Cebu Pacific Airline Meals: Same meal, different destinations, different price

October 25, 2024

Cebu Pacific Airline Meals: Same meal, different destinations, different price. Why do you think there's a price difference?

The price of the char siu chicken is 320 pesos for the Manila-Singapore flight. While the char siu chicken is 520 pesos for the Manila-Melbourne flight.

Things you should know about booking Forbidden City tickets

October 9, 2024


THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT BOOKING FORBIDDEN CITY TICKETS:

You can get 25% OFF FORBIDDEN CITY TICKETS here: 25% OFF Forbidden City Tickets


1. NEVER BOOK FORBIDDEN CITY (a.k.a Beijing Palace Museum) TICKETS LAST MINUTE! As soon as you know the date of your visit, book it. You cannot walk in and you cannot get tickets last minute. 

2. When you book the ticket, you don't immediately get the ticket. Sale of Forbidden City tickets open only a week before your intended date. You're merely asking the travel agent to buy the tickets for you the moment ticket sale opens for your date of visit. If and when they are able to buy it, that's the time you get the booking confirmation. 

3. Forbidden City tickets are very high in demand. Tickets are usually gone the moment ticket sale opens. There are only a certain number of tickets released each day and you can only buy it online.

4. Make sure to write the name reflected in your passport. Your ticket is actually your passport. When you arrive at the entrance of the Forbidden City, you present your passport and they input your name as reflected in your passport in the computer terminal to check if you have entrance tickets.

My tip on how to get an authentic massage at Wat Pho

September 16, 2024

My tip on 
How to get an authentic Thai massage at Wat Pho 

Wat Pho is an ancient temple in Bangkok and the home of the famous Reclining Buddha. It is also where the first Thai massage school was opened. Knowing this, people who want to experience authentic Thai massage tend to go to Wat Pho. So it's not surprising that the line will be long and waiting time would be an hour. My tip would be to reserve a slot at the massage place when you arrive at Wat Pho, then tour the place and see the Reclining Buddha. By the time you finish touring the place, it will be your turn for the massage





Another alternative is to go to the Wat pho massage school outside the temple area, about 260 meters from the Chetuphon gate of Wat Pho. Its the same service you'll get but waiting time is shorter because the massage school has more therapists and space is bigger. Waiting time is 40 min.

If you've seen the Temple of the Reclining Buddha and would just like to have the massage, head straight to the wat pho massage school near the river instead of going to the temple. You'll save 300 baht entrance fee that you'll have to pay if you have the massage within Wat Pho temple grounds. 




Checkout the photos below for the rates and location. It's interesting to note that they're offering something new: Thai massage with cannabis oil.

My experience checking in at Suvarnabhumi Airport

MY EXPERIENCE CHECKING IN AT SUVARNABHUMI AIRPORT, BANGKOK

If you're flying from Suvarnabhumi Airport to an international destination, make sure to arrive at the airport 3 HOURS BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT. Lines are usually long at the check in counter and at immigration. 

Our family used both Cebu Pacific going to Manila and Scoot Airlines going to Singapore. Both Cebu Pacific and Scoot check in counters at Suvarnabhumi Airport (Bangkok) open only 3 hours before the flight. The check-in counters were closed when we arrived there early and opened exactly 3 hours before the flight. 




We tried using the self check-in kiosk of Cebu Pacific and we were able to print the boarding pass but not the bag tags. So we still needed to line up at the check-in counters for bag drop to get the bag tags. They also reviewed our passports once again and reissued our boarding pass. The line at the check-in counter in took 15 min, whether or not you checked in online. 



Scoot check-in counters had no line at all. I guess 3 hours before the flight is too early to check-in for passengers travelling to Singapore. At Changi Airport, you only need to arrive and check-in 2 hours before the flight, and sometimes






But in our experience at Suvarnabhumi Airport, checking in 3 hours before the flight is just right because the line at immigration and security is long, and the walk to the gate is very long. We just had 30 minutes to take a quick bite of food at the lounge near our gate. Then we had to leave because they were already boarding.

So my advice is to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your flight, to avoid having to run to the gate,
