Thanks for all the travel info.

So, is it cheaper to purchase in PI or USA for 1 way ticket? Or is it the same?

I'm finding it cheaper to buy a round trip.

It depends.. In some cases it is cheaper in the Philippines due to travel agencies competition..

Or in some cases its cheaper in the US due to low seasonal fare..

Just read up on what me and djturbo discussed..

The bottom line is you gotta bargain around to find out which one is cheaper..

For Midwest and next summer-

the best I am finding online is 894$ into Chicago one way on NWA via Mobissimo and Vayama.

For David and Jenny-

Mobissimo and Vayama seem to have one-way into Tulsa for 770-850$ late Jan and early Feb.

I think it will be hard for you to do much better than that.

Try searching NortwestAirlines directly or calling American Airlines. I found the prices slightly lower than Mobissmo. With AA or United the POE is O'Hare. With Northwest the POE is Detroit or Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Does anyone know the specifics about first time flyers getting an overweight allowance on baggage at Ninoy Aquino?

Yes my preffered place for her to enter would be Detroit which makes NW the obvious choice but the cheapest I have found on thier website is about 980$

i booked my O/W ticket from a local travel agent here in Manila on NW for MNL-WAC via DTW. so far, its at $785, inclusive of taxes. i haven't paid for it yet though, as i have instructed my agent to just extend my options until a cheaper rate comes along. =)

on evaair.com in the hot e-fares section, it says the following:

1.A maximum of four passengers (including children) can be booked with each transaction provided that one of the adult passengers is the cardholder who pays for the transaction. (Someone is considered to be a 'child' if his/her age is between 2 to 11). You are required to present the credit card used to purchase the ticket during check-in at the airport. For identification at the check-in counter, you must use a credit card with the card number and name stamped into it. You are required to input your first name and last name exactly as displayed on the credit card. Passengers who fail to do so will be denied boarding unless they purchase a full-fare ticket at the airport ticket counter.

Does this mean that I cannot purchase a one-way ticket for my fiancee at the special e-fare rate?

Yes, and by the end of this month we will be reunited again here in the USA CFO was a little crazy there, but all in all everything went very smoothly.

Jenny will ask this crucial question for JAL tomorrow. She will also ship other things needed.

I'm planning to buy my tickets at evaair. What my husband did is he applied a credit card in my name and he sent it together with the financial documents needed for my interview thru DHL. I could purchase my tickets online once I got my visa.

Yup. I just did the same exact thing 10 minutes ago I will be there for her interview though. I just don't know if I can match my flight or not. My tickets are already purchased
