Clark or Manila to Los Angeles. 3 adults 2 children. Paid about $3500 in 2017, Asiana via SEL. Non-stop on PAL lowest price in July $7903. Actually prefer Clark and do not prefer PAL. Let me know if you find something or have a suggestion. The family trip might be off the table this year but I am now looking at Denver for just me because my sister is not doing well.

ThaiWolf Posted May 19, 2022 Author Posted May 19, 2022 Cheers guys for the help. So far it looks like a return ticket will have to do! Not much in it price wise to bother with the hassle. Next on the agenda: The dreaded covid health insurance. Any company recommended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of my mates from Australia have used https://www.covermore.com.au/?fbclid=IwAR0wpZVuDiuCB1UGk4UlEYT5BEIEcX741tML8tPpixXFtY5-14eZKqBqfIo not sure if its relevant to yanks but it may help you out. Just follow the links to the covid coverage. I'm guessing you know how to navigate around a website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your problem... you got several things working against you... biggest ones is the rush of people flying for the summer plus many who haven't been back and forth for awhile... if you go out to September you could fly for $4,500 and even Singapore Airlines for $5,500. With kids I'm guessing school drives the dates. $3.500 for 5 in 2017 was a deal though ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First check the airlines you are traveling with as often they will have insurance. If not just Google travel insurance. Philippines require Covid insurance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One way, Manila to Bangkok, Kota Kinabalu or Hong Kong one way, all just under $50 USD but thats now and next week might be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try the World Nomads web site for Covid Insurance; free quotes provided. Keep in mind when you buy it that you’ll need it for the duration of your stay. So you might want to consider that when buying your throw away ticket - the longer you “stay” the more it’s going to cost you. The only entity that asked me for proof of the insurance was the airline when I checked in. The BOI never checked nor did they ask for it when I extended my visa. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their quote was similar to one I've found in Thailand with Allianz International via a broker MisterPrakan which is instant cover with printable cert. Still not cheap but a necessity! 10 hours ago, Jollygoodfellow said: One way, Manila to Bangkok, Kota Kinabalu or Hong Kong one way, all just under $50 USD but thats now and next week might be different. I can't find anything anywhere near them prices. Could you kindly give me a link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
