I'm a simple man. I see Simply Aviation and PAL, I click Like.

[@miguelven6528]

Simply simple ah I get it now I think I don’t

[@princeplotena]

Sam Chui and Simply Aviation reviewing PAL for the first time this year! What a treat!

[@princeplotena]

Definitely! The upgrade to four stars on Skytrax will also make reviewers interested.

[@johnsantinotupas6259]

Its your sibling looks were same doge

[@jesiemmanuelbuensuceso183]

Hope PAL will join SkyTeam, OneWorld or Star Alliance soon. The service is improving. I tried PR last Sept 2017. Manila to Sydney and back via new A330-330 reconfigured cabin. New seats, IFE touch screen, meal, snacks, unli drinks, amenity kit since it is an overnight flight. The cabin crew did a great job. Keep it up PR! Five star na yan bago mag 80 years old!

[@putodango]

Thank you for flying my country’s Flag Carrier!!!;) You are truly one of the best TripReport KZbin Channel!!!;)

[@MsJessicaPaige]

Yay, speaking of Philippine Airlines, I am so excited for their New a350

[@kyleytRBLX]

Same To You Ms Jonathan

[@turboblitzx6662]

Sadly, I don’t think I’ll ever be taking Philippine Airlines. My mother says it’s always delayed. I guess I’ll just stick with Cebu Pacific...

[@bryronify]

Cebu Pacific? Seriously? IDK if you are being sarcastic here but Cebu Pac is 10x worse in terms of delayed flights. It is so bad that whenever my friends and I book our flight with Cebu Pac, it is like we accepted defeat and submit to the fact that we will definitely in for a delayed flight. Cebu Pac flights are just cheaper that's why we bear with them.

[@redsreport9843]

TurboChargex its the same delay, maybe cause of runway is always full? Try to be open to any, try something new and you will know whats thw difference, i tried cebu and pal in a 1 hour flight same price , cebu doesn't have meals and PAL has.also PAL has IFE in longhaul flight.. cebupac is always have an issue.

[@turboblitzx6662]

bryronify Ive only experienced at least three or four delays on Cebu Pacific. It’s probably because of different routes. Sometimes, delays depend on the routes. Whether it’s heavy traffic, or heavy winds. And anyways I’ve barely seen any PAL flights delayed, besides on typhoon season...

[@angbiyaherongfanboy9550]

I flew on their A340 to Hong Kong last November. It was aging already and they ran out of my preferred meal choice but the plane was well maintained and the flight was smooth and pleasant overall. We flew their 777 to BKK weeks after. The IFE system helped but a refurbishment definitely won't hurt.

[@jacquelinete8260]

IT is Very surprising Philippine airline a 4 Star airline can offer a decent meal. While Cathay Pacific a 5 Star airline Will only offer you a Lousy inedible sandwich and only bottle water.

[@tyteavlogs21]

Jacqueline Te true I was on my second leg of my trip from Sfo-mnl on the hkg-mnl they only gave me a sandwich in a box with oj I was like in could of just flown Philippine Airlines and it would of been a direct flight from Sfo-mnl and get 2 full meals!

[@angeloreyanunciacion160]

Same when i went to hong kong from manila

[@CarIoMariano]

lol mnl to hkg is only about 2 hours therefore they only give out snacks.

[@chris1978nl]

Flew with Cathay last december, and there was a good breakfast on board on board at the flight from Hong Kong to Cebu, and on the flight back a good warm meal.

[@charles-9134]

I flew with Cathay back in 2014 (CX 906 MNL-HKG on a B77W) and i agree... they only gave us the chicken fajita burrito thing 😂 It was pretty good though, but not enough :(

[@flyingbagge8132]

Haha I liked before I started watching. You and Felix are the best❤️

[@ilhamzakerrrsss313]

FLYING BAGGE dont forget Simon

[@flyingbagge8132]

You’re such an inspiration❤️!!!

[@lull1775]

This one after Sam... oh my.....love you guys 🛫🇵🇭

[@nakiinami]

It's been awhile since David did a report! Great report on Philippine Airlines! Outstanding airline.

[@RedJet-bq6fq]

Philippine Airlines, a true 4-star carrier. If it continues this kind of service and improves in some areas no doubt it will attain a 5-star rating. Great review!

[@vasoga0919]

Not a chance, if they still use 343 seating config for their 777

[@Astra-bg9sf]

Like 2-4-2 for Economy, 2-3-2 figs to Business Class, 2-2-2 for mahbuay Class & 1-1-1 for first class for A350-900.

[@Astra-bg9sf]

No, your wrong. It’s a configuration seats for like Emirates & Philippines Airlines.

[@Astra-bg9sf]

If you check on google, you see it through, so you can see whatever I telled you once before.

[@Astra-bg9sf]

carleone saga, I don’t mind. If you say so, just letting it go tell First class, don’t exist with Philippines Airlines, also they are used with new airshow this long time in 2018, but being an stupid, will just letting myself.

[@jeruelleapigo3642]

I hope you can have an another PAL A350 Tripreport in the future.

[@CoddiwomplingMiguel]

I think it’s cool that you used the stairs coming down from an international flight. Wouldn’t it be awesome if you used the stairs too to board the 777? Not accessibility friendly but really cool!

[@haarylmao]

how is boarding a b777 with stairs fun?

[@scholargnome]

@@haarylmao It's probably just a novel experience. Something unique and different from the usual air bridges.

[@pixeladventurer5377]

I have always wanted to travel on Philippines Airlines, this one is just amazing!

[@FlyingAsia]

Great report of PAL David!

Great video :) Hope you could fly the trans-pacific business class when the A350 arrives.

[@matthewrobinsolis]

Great video and I love it ❤❤ Hope to see more Philippines Airlines tripreport and especially on their upcoming Airbus a350

[@zandrojosebandong6119]

Wow!Thank you for making a video of our flag carrier😊Hope you had an amazing flight😊I've be watching your videos since last year and I was hoping that you try our flag carrier and here it is.Thank you so much😊

[@gkfujiwaraesquibel7998]

The route is short but they are using a big plane. Cebu - Hongkong is a 3 hour flight. Hong Kong has probably the highest passenger numbers per trip in Manila. That's why they are using big planes like the A330, A350, and the 777-300ER.

[@sadzuko2266]

Thank you david for this trip Report!! Been waiting for you to try out my country’s flag carrier Philippine Airlines!☝️

[@aninnocentchild4353]

I love pal! Just look at that landing so smooth!

Philippine Airlines is great! I like how they serve meals on international flights.

[@MsKestrela]

Awesome report, David! Philippine Air looks like it's bringing it. Legroom, check. Meal, check. Decor, check. Cute staff, double check!

[@BlakeEdgington]

Great review. Must put this flight on my wish list.

[@Azodnem2003]

Nice vid can you please make a video about Philippine Airlines' new A350 when it is in service in the future

[@christiancastillo5651]

Omg thank you I asked about you about this a year ago and you really did it thanksss

[@imalain16]

8:30 they have 2 meal option in a 2hr flight , they really want that 5 star . Last time i flew with them in that route was with the 747.

[@nathanasio2829]

They also fly their refurbished a330 and a321s to this route

[@marinettedupain-cheng9930]

Wow, Lucky you, PAL's 747s Are All Retires

[@christopheheckel2076]

The provided headphones have two jacks. Can you also use your own headphones on the entertainment system or will you hear only trough one ear? Would you need an adapter?

[@degorovi]

Great trip report. I hope to fly on PAL's A350 from NY to Manila soon. You guys are one of the best in the business of airline video reporting.

[@fludge9677]

My first video I watch is the Russian airline(I forgot the name of the airline) that you ride on and it was Boeing 747 I love you all of the members of simply aviation and keep up the good work 5 star for great videos love you all

[@gabrieljohnjuele4290]

Yes finally!!! Anyways you've riden the older 777s of the airline... YOUR THE BEST WOOHOO!

[@gabrieljohnjuele4290]

Correction the newer ones hahaha sorry... anyways that's the far side of the international part of that terminal... the A320 you've riden from Japan is the youngest A320 of the airline as they moved forward into buying A321s

[@snake8267]

Yes love philippine air even for a short flight they accomodate you with meals❤

[@Zaki-db1mw]

Yes since I dubscribed you a long time ago, I've been waiting for PAL thank you! :))

[@tyteavlogs21]

on my flight from sfo to Mnl we got hot towels ! That is why I love PAL unlike any other airlines they did not offer hot towels

[@alexyt4434]

The engine startup on the GE90 is super loud, and I like that. On takeoff full power, it’s super quiet, which I don really like. I’ve been on a Philippine Airlines flight PR113/PR103 and it was amazing!

[@marinarobledo4450]

Uuylyou

[@EpicThe112]

You are correct, but had there been a Trent 8115 version built for B777-300/ER, you would have the same issue as a Trent 500 start sitting next to the engine results in a big noise

[@shawnmurphy9667]

Lucky you Manila to Hong Kong we just returned from Vancouver from manila it’s a long one in economy ✌️👍 it’s always fun on the triple seven but after a few hours the thrill subsides good video thank you

[@onlyaviation1260]

Good video as always!
