19 August, 2011 - Arab national arrested

CLARK FREEPORT -- An Arab national was arrested after he failed to pay grocery items at the SM Clark in Angeles City.

Senior Superintendent Rodolfo Recomono, Angeles City police director, said Sharam Kelab, 33, an Arab national, and temporarily residing in Barangay Malabanias, Angeles City, failed to pay for the coffee and creamer at the cashier of Hypermarket grocery store.

Ha, this reminds me of one of my favorite funny movie- My Cousin Vinny.
Next thing you know, he will be charge with murder.
You never know as this is the PI.

Budget airlines work on a group quota system where a percentage of seats per flight will attract a certain price. The cheapest being quoted first. The second consideration is that PROMO prices have an expiry date/time. The latest PROMO price that kicked in last night was 999p for Clk/Sg.

I guess you were checking flights just as they were changing PROMO plans or when someone just changed his flight and an available seat appeared due to that cancellation.

I have my flights bought months in advance and more often then not, I regret buying it earlier cos a better price appeared. Like you said, its like a stock market. Just take and go. Don look back. Enjoy.

This is SO TRUE. I often hit myself on the head as I think I had very good fare and later on to find they were almost giving the seats away.

My advice is still this. If you had a solid plan to go and your trip dates are fixed then don't chance it and buy the 1st promo that looks good and don't regret when later the fare drops. Remember, The opposite always happens also as you don't buy the 1st good promo only to find no more promo comes up later and you had to pay premium price to go (Note: this also happened to me a few times, but still willing to pay premium price than not go at all). I hate paying the higher price and feel like until my first BJ and bonk then all is forgotten

If you are from Sing, no need to travel to Manila as this will mean an additional bus ride from Manila to AC. Just reading back a few days of posts will give you some great clues that 2 good cheapo airlines will get you to AC (Clark airport).
1)Tiger
2)Cebupacific

If Manila is indeed your destination, that route is also available.

True, I always try to get the earliest flight to reach AC in the morning and the latest flight possible to leave AC as I always try to sneak one last BJ in before leaving , never matter to me what time I arrive home.

But if there is a very big price difference for the flights on the same day then I always just buy the cheapest flight possible, even if its for a late flight arrival to AC. Choices of gals not as good later at night but always something available and sometimes very good ones can be found very late when most bars close and they all head for the disco on Fields.

Not True bro, No way are you a lower class Samster.
The Lord is right, I also have to put you up there on my personal rating scale. You have been very helpful to all and very knowledgable in all things concerning not only AC but other parts of PI as well.
I am more than humble to sit back and listen to you when you speak. I have alot to learn also.

Cost is also a topic dear to me.
IMO: The cost is not even the most important factor when you do pick up a gal. It is the way you treat them that counts the most. There have been many gals that I never even bother to give a tip that wanted me again. Treat them right, make them laugh and feel relax and they are yours
But of course, Sometimes some of the gals do call me a cheapo --can't win them all.

Peace

You must be the true blue KIASU Singaporean. EVERYTHING also must have and every opportunity must be utilised. Be the best we can be. I also use my cel or Santos St for a last shot out before running to the airport for my flight to Sg.

Hey bro, can you PM with your thoughts on this as I often tried and failed with Jetstar and Tiger fare forecast.. Thanks

Ha, not really bro.
Same idiots with new titles and ranks. They can catch shoplifter not paying for coffee but can't catch a murderer holding a bloody knife. Watching them work is indeed a comedy show. They can make the 3 Stooges look smart.

Sir, I take chair and sit. Patiently I await your lecture on the finer points of what you mentioned. Especially that part in red.

I checked on your previous posts in SB and you are bona fide. Your question is typical of a real newbie but that's how we all were with new places.

Angeles City is 80km north of Manila. Fields Avenue(AC) is at the main gate of Clark Air Base where Clark Airport(DMIA) is. Dau is the town 1km from Fields where many buses stops or pass through.

The best option to go AC from Sg or KL is to fly into Clark(DMIA) with Tiger/CebuPac or AirAsia. Prices vary depending on when you bought your ticket.

Another option is to fly into Manila(NAIA) and take a taxi(1.5hr/2600p) or bus to AC. A bus ride(3hr/141p) will be an adventure if you are newbie but not that difficult.

A tip for anyone interested to take the bus from Dau to Manila. When you arrive at Dau, there might be taxis waiting for passengers. Bargain smart and say that you know they going back Manila empty and you will help pay toll. I managed a taxi to NAIA for 400p(usually 800p). Bargain with a smile. Make it fun. Say you not in a hurry and a bus is fine with you.
