1. flight Bangkok - Clark yesterday

I just talked to a good friend of mine. He was on board of Cebu Pacific`s first flight from Bangkok, Thailand to Clark airport, Angeles City yesterday. Here`s what he said :

- Departure time was delayed by one hour. Usually for Cebu Pacific.

- Flight was not booked out. Around 80% of the seats were taken. Unlike Cebu Pacific`s Bangkok - Manila route, where most of the customers are Asian, on this route to Clark most passengers were western tourists.

- First guy who checked in at Bangkok airport won unlimited flights for one year for this route for free.

- Drinks and snacks only payable with US$. Instead of the regular 50 Pisos for a small bottle of water they charged US$. Heavy price increase !

I`m not sure what to think about this new route and if we will still have it in a year or so. It sure is a good thing for tourists coming to the Philippines from Thailand.
Time will tell.
