Need advices - Departure Procedures (Manila Airport) With E-Ticket

[Jim&Gracey 2]

Hi everyone! Actually GOOGLE already answered my questions about the departure procedures at Manila Airport but of course I want up-to-date experiences about everything. Hope you understand because it's my very first LONG flight and I will travel alone. Lay-over will be in Taipei then POE at Seattle.

Has anyone had any problems about e-tickets? I know for a fact that the card holder should sign the indemnity of payment form to the airlines office. I already printed out the itinerary receipt and the one showing the booking reference number. Well, it's not colored. Is that okay? LOL.. I only have black for now, but will buy the other colors if black and white e-ticket doesn't sound good.

And can anyone give me tips and other advices for travelling alone?

Thank you so much!!!

P.S

Airline is EVA

Is travel tax already included in your air fare? If not, it has to be paid at NAIA. It's 1,620 pesos plus the terminal fee of 550 pesos.

The other reply is right by asking if tue travel tax is included since it will make things easier.

With the e-ticket, there should be no problem with the color My e-ticket was b&w except for my name which was in bold blue. We bought the ticket in the US but the agency had a counterpart in PH and so they just confirmed my identity and issued my e-ticket. Regardless, your name should be in the airline system once the itinerary is released.

Traveling alone? Weigh your luggage before hand and give an allowance of 1kg as we never know how the weighing scales are calibrated.

The tickets handed to you should be kept along with your documents which is in your arms.

Wear flats and comfortable clothes.

I brought $150 and 2k pesos and not a single cent was spent. Your lay over would require either $ or their currency. The food in the plane should suffice really. Just binge after the flight or bring some snacks with you

You can either sleep or not that is all up to you. Just fix up a little bit for the immigration picture

Hold om to your documents especially the tickets of your connecting flight and visa visa packet.

With connecting flights, don't hesitate to ask. I was just listening to some passengers on where they are headed and didnt have to ask and just went with the crowd so vigilance and being keen is helpful also

Seattle POE is awesome! Haha! I'm a Seattleite but seriously it wasn't toxic. You can read some reviews with POE there.

Hope that helps Stay safe

I brought my regular clothes. I normally had long sleeves and I am Seattle which has 80% cold weather but it reaches low 80°F in the summer. CA is like in the PH sometimes except not that humid. You can never go wrong with cardigans in my opinion. Like if you have sleeveless you can just dress it up with a cute cardigan and when you are used to the weather you can wear sleeveless most of the time if you want

Color on ticket matters not. If tax and NAIA fee is not identified as paid on e-ticket, they must be paid at NAIA. As for clothes, bear in mind it's a LONG flight. Comfort is key. Airplanes tend to get cold, so a sweater or light jacket is nice. Usually international flights have blankets, but recently I have noticed US carriers don't have them unless asked. No free food on shorter US airline flights, and they don't accept cash, so you need credit or debit card on the planes (not international legs). Or you can use cash in the airport, and get better quality food.

Congrats!

No, one way is fine. Terminal fee and travel tax (both may be included in the ticket, need to read the list of fees) Details in the link below under the POE tab
