Well, it happened also to my husband. He went back to the Philippines year 2017, it was direct flight from Lax to NAIA..He was excited to see my daughter and some relatives and he didn’t notice that his luggage was already opened.. Then ,he decided to open the the luggage to give some pasalubong for the kids (chocolate),he saw the padlock was already opened.He lost the 2 tablets, electric razor, brand new polo shirts,even his used underwear. According to my source, the CCTV before the luggages bring to the area where the carousel is not working. Good things,we sent some of his belongings through Atlas

I've never had one good experience with PAL. I go out of my way to avoid them, but because PAL is the name carrier of the Philippines, every few years or so, I do fly with them to give them a chance, to support them, and to see if anything has improved. Unfortunately, every single time I've flown with them, it's always a bad experience. I'm really hoping that they improve in the near future, but after our recent experience with them in December, I'd probably avoid them until I hear of any improvement. I've written their corporate before, but I felt that I wasn't heard and was just ignored. I'm hoping that this video and the comments within it can reach their corporate, so they can address the many issues surrounding their company. If we want improvement, hindi pwede bahala na, or okay lang yan. The more voices who speaks up, the better they will hear us.

[@edgarborda2748]

I like the way you tried to be POSITVE in spite of your BAD experience going home to the Philippines. I can assure you that the things your family lost did not happen in Chicago or in San Francisco. Did you remember that you said you waited for about one and a half hours before the carousel started to move in the NAIA. That was the time the pinoy's started to open the luggages. They have special keys prepared for all kinds of luggages. Why don't you ask why they don't put CCTV's around those areas where the luggages were stocked after they were brought from the plane. I hate to say this but it is our "kababayans" who are stealing things at the airport. I have several friends who did lost a lot of things there. Personally I lost several shirts that was for my relatives but they never received it. We checked the post office here in Bloomingdale, Illinois and they said it arrived in the Philippines but from there they can't go on to find out how things are. I also lost the medicines I sent to my brother. Again the post office here said they tract it and it got to the Philippines too. TRUTH hurts, I know. But we have to accept that the people working in that airport were the same people who were doing these things. Next time, guys try to put DUCK TAPES around you luggage aside from the lock. The duck tapes when it is tampered can show sign of it. A lot of duck tapes will discourage them to open the luggage. Watching from Illinois USA; 02-17-2023. 🕓AM 😎👍👍👍

[@donbaker5207]

While visiting in the Philippines I told the postman that I was expecting some important mail from the U.S. embassy in Manila. He said he would check at home where he was holding on to piles of undelivered mail. A few pesos and a day later the mail was delivered to me.

[@travelnomad2128]

I agree. And if it was inspected in the US by customs, they usually taped it with their own tape with US customs printed on it like the one time it happened to me but nothing was missing. I also suspect the theft happened in Manila that's why it took a long time for their luggages to come out! The airport should have surveillance cameras inside the baggage holding areas after deplaning. It's a simple solution but maybe the airport admin is in on it, corruption is rampant in the Philippines. Good idea on the duct tapes!

Hi Vanjo - great video! I just retired after working for a leading conglomerate for over 33y. I was fortunate to be given the opportunity to travel around Asia as part of my business development work. Unfortunately I had my own share of bad trips. I was also a victim of theft. To be honest it is not a coincidence that NAIA and PAL are not rated positively due to very poor service. We tend to accept excuses especially if the NAIA or PAL staff will say: "Pasensya na Sir". This is unacceptable especially when you worked hard to pay for the tickets; you and your family deserve appropriate level of service. NAIA should install CCTV for all outgoing and incoming luggages so customers can monitor how these are being handled (or mishandled or worse being opened where your/our valuables are stolen). This is basic management practice which we should demand from Government.

This is soo painful to watch but thank you for putting the video together and still brought positivity to all of us! Patience ia indeed a virtue! A lot of people does not realize that we have to save up to come home, we don’t buy the pasalubongs just like that!I personally wait for all the big sale events like Black Friday and such just so my family can have better gifts without breaking my bank! We look forward to making our family happy and it sometimes takes us a decade to go back home! The situation where the trays,temotes and headphones were unacceptable but you are so kind and humble! Business flights aren’t cheap! We paid for comfort and saved up for a long time to get those tickets!They knew first hand which plane you will be flying so a courtesy email would be great unless it barely broke.The business flights are expensive for a reason,We could have taken the basic fare if that was the case! The stealing is really sad but you thought us alot of things in this video,to be humble,to be patient especially whenyou were explaining it to your daughter and to be forgiving! Thank you!I hope your next trip home will have a better experience!I really admire your humility!

Lots of travelers have a negative experienced that they will never forget. For stolen stuff from personal luggage, that was already plan after they scan the luggage.

Most Filipinos - take note “most Filipinos” - when talking in Tagalog would pronounce “salmon” with the “L” sounded. It’s NOT a “very common error” as you “mistakenly concluded” in your comment.

Curious why you DIDN’T COMMENT another “very common error”, as you say, of Filipinos, the way he pronounced “lettuce” & “canapés”. Your sense of hearing “MISSED” them, did you?!

Hi! I’ve been a fan of panlasang pinoy since 2009. I was an OFW back then trying to cook Pinoy dishes with your help. You helped me a lot! I recently saw this video and I feel bad for you and your family. I’m disappointed with NAIA even more as I’ve had bad experiences there in the past… but it’s good to know that you were still able to enjoy your time with family here. You also handled the situation very calmly and didt let it ruin the rest of your vacation. Take care and God bless. 🙏🏻

[@0675bunny]

Hello Chef! Thanks for sharing your experience. It is indeed a good lesson for everyone who will be travelling to be aware of what to put in their luggages. By the way, I simply admire your calm attitude, decent and still poised even though problems were coming. Such a good role model. I was also a victim also prior times...but not like yours but simply while I was vacationing with my husband and my passport and cash were stolen in our hotel room. The hotel manager was very accomodating. He did helped us thoroughly. Only the hassle of processibg the passport and my visa were so much stress...But in the end, the problem was also remedied.

[@pimpinpres]

Whatever happened to your kitchen, I'm sure there will be a new and better version coming up soon. For now, hope you and your family find enough time to rest and recuperate. Baka lang po sir blessing in disguise rin to para makapahinga kayo. You've given us more than enough content to provide both a learning and entertaining experience, whether it's pure cooking or your daily escapades. More power to you, sir!

[@RAV42NER]

Unfortunate that you and your family had to go through all these. I do admire your patience. I always fly PAL almost twice a year YVR-MNL-YVR and never had a problem. Pag sa akin nangyari yan Sir ay naku! :) The way I see it, hindi naman airline lang needs to take responsibility. Nandyan ang airport ground crews, baggage handlers, security, etc. Mga yan hindi naman controlado ng airline. Hindi lahat PAL ang may pagkukulang. And yung ibang kababayan natin just need to understand that.

I am glad Filipino viewers took this experience in an empathetic and respectful manner. If he is a foreigner sharing this kind of experience in the Philippines, he will be mocked, condemned, and banned to go back. I hope filipinos are able to grasp this kind of stories in an open minded and educated form of thinking. Without bias and double standards.

You are very kind and a very good example to your kids. I’m not sure if I will be as calm as you with everything that happened. I’m really sorry these all happened to you. But your positive spirit and kindness will bring more blessings to your life - more grace will come to you. Your children are lucky to have you. I’m a frequent traveler and had a bad experience with Philippine Airlines in the past. So I never fly them anymore. It’s really sad because I prefer to support everything Filipino. Anyway, my point is, you remind me to try to be kind when bad things happen to me. So thank you. It’s nice to be important but more important to be nice. 😀

The way how the padlock is installed in can be still easily opened without knowing that something is already stolen. just be meticulous next time, ensure that the zippers are secured in one place and cant move. or have it wrapped with clear plastic that is available in airports. keep up the filipino spirit!! proud kabayan here!

[@benpatenia5775]

Vanjo, I really admire the way you have handled yourself in that situation. Sad to say, I have avoided flying PAL to Manila because service with other Asian airlines like ANA or Cathay (in my experience) even flying economy class, are really much better. They’re also much cheaper. You spent so much for business class yet did not get your “bang for your buck”. I hope PAL, NAIA or Phil aviation management become aware of your experience and make solid efforts to correct this failure. That 1-1/2 hour gap at NAIA between plane to carousel is highly suspicious. Somebody responsible should compensate you. By the way, I follow your excellent cooking videos but this is the first time I posted a comment. More power to you!

May experienced din ako but this one is when going back to US. Sa Philippine immigration naman ito, they checked my hand carry and nakita nila yung facial lotion ko, it was not full. Sabi ng kapwa Pinoy na hindi raw pwedeng dalhin, na wala naman problem noong galing ako US. So they were interested sa high quality lotion ko. Ang ginawa ko, “ ah gusto mo ito? “Kinuha ko lotion at itinapon ko ang laman at ibinigay ko yung container. Sabi ko, “ o sa iyu na dahil wala nang laman”. Then ngumiti ako sa kanya.

If ikaw ang klase ng tao mkakaharap ko, no doubt and rest assured il do my best and extend my service pra lang komportable kayo. I don’t do this most of my passengers. Pinipili ko ang deserving! Kaya ang dami kong customer feedbacks pro if i have compliments sobrang cloud nine naman ang service binibigay ko lalo na sa families and elderly passengers.
