    I noticed your messages in the chat box, and i would like to help with your choices of Carriers.
    But not exactly knowing where you are going, or when, and from where, there isn't much I can say...

    But the fact remains, that apart from Qatar Airways and Singapore Airlines, I personally would not consider anybody else.
    They may be slightly more expensive, but they are the most up -to- date airlines in that neck of the woods, thus making them the safest.

    Hi Aromulus! Thank you for having this thread for me.. First of all would like to apologize for being a pest in this forum for asking so many question because I would just like to ensure that my boyfriend would be safe on his flight as I am well lets say a little paranoid.

    He plans to go here in Manila from Dates Feb 28 to March 22, 2011. 21 days to be exact and he is about to book his flight in cheapflights.co.uk which he had a trouble booking from this agency since they claimed that they didnt receive my boyfriend's payment where in fact it left the bank and the bank confirmed it already. All confirmations were sent to me my boyfriend. Would you mind to help us with this Sir Aromulus?

    Thank you so much for the concern :) God Bless you!

    First of all, do not label yourself as a "pest"......

    You aren't...
    it is genuine members like yourself that help turn a good forum into a successful one.

    Ok, as in regard to the other matter, if the money has already left the bank, then it means that the ticket has already been booked, and probably the E-Ticket needs to be printed off from the acceptance e-mail, or the Actual issued ticket would be in the post.

    The site your b/f looked at, is the same one I consult, from time to time, and one can find soome real bargains there, if patient and not lose hope.

    Sir Aromulus, indeed you are right. The money left the bank already and therefore the e-ticket should have been in my bf's email but to our surprise crystal travel called him to inform him that they haven't received any money yet. Thus, my bf had to call the bank immediately and he was told that his money had left already to pay crystal travel.

    The first ticket was booked for 31 days which was not the right things. Ate Florge helped me sort this matter so the ticket is now to be booked again once the flight payment return to his bank until this afternoon. My bf saw a flight schedule he likes under Malaysian Airlines which I am not so sure about..Which makes me more worried. I hope he can find something that you use which is very safe.

    My Advice.... AVOID that website! They have a partner site which is apparently ATOL registered, yet don't give a reference number and I cannot find them on the ATOL website. Plus those prices are too good to be true!

    Has scam written all over it!

    I tried the link, and it looks ok.. £699 qatar Airways to cebu, is ok for that time of the year, considering The Sinulog festival is about to commence...

    But on the whole, I wouldn't really know what to say. As I am a person that sticks with good service, and , even is dearer I would choose Qatar or SIA above anyone else any time.

    Thanks for letting me know Kuya! I am also surprise with the price since it is very very cheap! What online sites do you use for booking so we could try too? Thanks!

    Hi Sir KeithAngel! The problemo is that the money in my bf's account has already left and was paid to crystal travel but crystal travel called my bf to say that they did not receive his payment. So boyfriend called his bank to ask, his bank told him that his money has been sent to crystal travel already. And until to this date, the money is not yet being refunded to my boyfriend. Which makes me a bit sad.

    we used crystal travel when my hubby booked for my flight coming here... they were a bit slow in emailing me the e-ticket so i have to send numerous emails and hubby has to call several times before they were able to email me the e-ticket (5 days after i think)... it was a bit scary for me because it was the first time i used them...

    we have used expedia.com before and the latest one i used was lastminute.com .... they were very quick to send me the e-ticket... about 2 minutes after we paid online (using debit card) ... and they even emailed me 3 months after about the changes in our flight itinerary... so far, good service for me!

    Yes KeithAngel! My bf paid his booked ticket to crystal travel using his credit card which made things a little strange for us. The incident was quite scary for us because this is our 1st time to book for a ticket then all of the sudden we will not get to be successful in the end. :frust: :erm:

    same experience ate. the incident we had encounter with crystal travel made the both of us really annoyed. :frust:

    ate florge, do they have good deals for plane tickets? ate penny recommended me a site to book ticket online and the site link is http://www.cheapticket.co.uk/ ... im wondering if this is a good site to book and im hoping this link is not a scam either since they are offering good deals too just like cheapflights.co.uk
