Did you know that as an outgoing Filipino immigrant to another country, on your first one-way outbound flight to land in your new country of residency, you can get a significant discount on your airfare?
Well, if you didn't know that, then I hope you haven't already bought your ticket.
The travel agents do not readily advertise this, but if you ask, they will quote you.
Here's what you will need:
* Photocopy of the info page of your passport.
* Photocopy of the immigrant visa page of your passport.
The discount for me was significant, I think 35-40%. It was definitely enough for me to decide on a one-way ticket, rather than a round-trip ticket. The discount is only valid for a one-way ticket for your first landing as an immigrant.
My recommended travel agency is
Uni-Orient Travel Inc. (Makati)
G/F I-Care Building
167 Legaspi Street, Legaspi Village
Makati
(02) 818 9585 to 89
Whenever I get a quote for PAL (international flights), they always give me the best prices in town!
