Acknowledgements

We understand that planning a trip to the Philippines is no easy task, so we're going to help! Here you'll find all transportation (flights, local car & bus services, etc.) information.

Though we don't have everything finalized at this time, please stay tuned for updates.
Flight Information

We have worked out deals with our travel agent. We've narrowed down the flight choices to JFK & Newark airports. Note that these prices already include taxes/fees.

  • JFK – Korean Air - Economy: ~$1,055

Practically, we can hold these rates with our travel agent if you decide to purchase soon. There will likely be fluctuation in price given numerous factors.

You have the option to book through our travel agent or even comparison shop with other agents/e-tailers. However, you may be able to save yourself some hassle by going with our agent.

Here is our travel agent's contact information if you choose to purchase the tickets now, or if you want to coordinate with her in the near future. You can reference our party by saying you're with Elaine Magallon / Jorda wedding.

Commuting in the Philippines

On the day of the wedding, we will be providing bus transportation for all out-of-country guests. The buses will be traveling from Makati to the venue in the morning, and back again after the festivities have ended.

We will also try to accommodate for transportation for the various events around the wedding.

Though Manila is plagued with traffic, the good thing about local transportation is that it isn't expensive. A cab will seldom cost more that P200 for even the longest journey. Alternatively, there are the cheaper and 'not so comfy' jeepneys, and the much faster (but with less coverage) LRT and MRT trains.

Guidebooks are invaluable resources for travelers of all sorts. They contain incredibly helpful information about places to stay, visit, and eat at. They also educate you about the culture, history, and proper etiquette. We highly recommend the Lonely Planet Philippines (Country Guide) to help you maximize your enjoyment in the Philppines:
