Hello, would like any airline recommendations that go from Manila to Bangkok in March or April.
Reply to this My preference is Philippine Airlines (PAL) because I like their arrival and departure times from MNL and BKK. PAL has a slightly better weight allowance for luggage too than some discount airlines. When I arrive during the day hours I have a full night in a hotel and can take advantage of cheaper local transportation.
Cebu Air has flights that can be cheaper, but check their arrival and departure times. Cebu Air has more complaints than PAL. Some travelers love Cebu and others would rather swim than deal with their customer service.
Some discount airlines schedule your departure or arrival through Diosdado Macapagal International Airport (old Clark Airfield, Angeles City/Dau area) and not really close to Manila. Verify where your departure and arrival airports are located especially if you have connecting flights.
Sometimes when I used PAL they would have specials that you have to ask about. Ex. a short round trip flight of 4 days might be more expensive than a round trip flight of 7 or 8 days, etc. Ask what amount of time gives you a better price.
If you are in Manila or elsewhere in the P.I. check with local travel agencies for specific prices and options. Asking questions from a travel agency does not cost anything. Thai Air is another option but they usually are not the cheapest airline. I think Thai Air is pretty reliable.
Visa requirements to Thailand depend on the passport you are traveling under.
Good luck.
