She will require a photocopy of both your passport and of the credit card that was used to purchase the tickets. This is not always enforced/some airlines don't require this, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Good luck! :thumbs:

I agree with Jared and May. MY POE is at LAX and I found a cheap ticket online.

PAL, one way, inclusive of taxes = 890.53

It's still tentative though. You might want to ask for promos.

Thank you for all the replies. You all have been helpful. Now I have a few additional questions.

1- Will my fiance need a non-stop flight to here ? (Most flight i've found have a stopover in Korea or Japan.)

2-Have any of you had problems with overbooked flights due to booking on short notice?

3- Where is the best place to wait in order to find her after arriving at LAX ?

Sorry about so many questions,but I want this to go a smooth as possible for her.

Thank You All Again !

I can field some of these...

Layovers are fine, my sweetiepie is coming to JFK via Japan. Since it's just a layover and not a stayover (overnight), then it's fine. And once you've booked a flight and have a ticket, it should be yours! Just tell your sweetiepie not to give up her seat for any of the free incentive offers that the airlines would offer. :rofl:

I certainly will.. As you can imagine I'm pretty excited and having a hard time sleeping.. She's flying to Manila tomorrow morning and I've had her promise me (maybe 100x now) to message me when she arrives in the hotel safely. Then she's meeting up with one of her friends for dinner + movie, then flying to JFK the next morning.

It's been a long wait now, but certainly worth it!

New Hampshire is beautiful. We're going up there in the Fall for a long weekend..

Good luck to you! :thumbs: :thumbs:

LOL I'm a wreck.. I didn't sleep a wink last night, just way too excited.. I tracked her flight from Davao to Manila on an almost minute by minute basis.. I called her as she was boarding the plane and then she sent me an SMS last night when she reached the Casa Bocobo..

She's resting today/tonight then leaves around 7:30 am tomorrow (7/7) from Manila to New York via Japan.

We really are down to just hours at this point.. Right around 33 :rofl:
