Not gonna happen. A359 has less capacity than the 777-300ER which is usually full on the MNL-SFO route. If seat configuration is your priority, other airlines offer the same, if not better. You just need to connect somewhere though.

I also think Philippine Airlines should revive their non-stop European flights. I think this should happen once SMC upgrades NAIA to allow a higher annual passenger capacity and NMIA opens to traffic. The following European airports should have non-stop Manila flights using either or both airports: * Lisbon * Madrid * Barcelona * Dublin * London-Gatwick * London-Heathrow * Manchester * Glasgow * Edinburgh * Paris-Charles De Gaulle * Amsterdam-Schiphol * Brussels * Geneva * Zurich * Rome-Fiumicino * Milan-Malpensa * Athens * Frankfurt * Munich * Berlin * Hamburg * Copenhagen * Oslo * Stockholm-Arlanda * Helsinki Other European airports should also have non-stop Manila flights as well.

Yeah, I think with the purchase of more Airbus A350-1000, part of the intention is to expand flights back to Europe particularly to London, which was their discontinued flight due to the pandemic.

@grWil It was my pleasure! I'm really very good at geography; that's why I have easily identified the place of that portion in Luzon :)
How long did it take you to check into Manila Airport and get to the domestic terminal for Tuguegarao?? A Buddy of mine is telling me to make sure to have a 5hr layover in Manila so I don't miss my flight, but my layover is 2hr and 20 min in Manila Airport before I board for Tuguegarao, is 2hr and 20 min enough time?? I'm a Canadian so I want to make sure with someone who knows the Airport..what are your thoughts?
Hey there, let me ask what airline will you be riding on to Manila before going to Tuguegarao? I think 2 hours is enough assuming no delays from your previous flight. But yeah, it depends on which NAIA Terminal you will be coming from.
@CaptEngrWil my ticket says "phillipine airlines" it stops at terminal one and than it wants me to go to terminal 2 Manila to catch phillipine airlines again to tuguegarao..and I heard terminal 1 and 2 are close...so I think I will have lots of time.
@@CaptEngrWilSo long story short I will be going from terminal 1 to 2..I won't have to go to terminal 3
Hey there, since you are also flying with PAL as well, both international and domestic, I think that is enough so long that your flight may not get delayed hopefully. Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 are nearer to each other than Terminal 3. And yeah, when you arrived at Terminal 1, there are counters there for PAL with domestic connecting flights so they can help or assist you on your next flight to Tuguegarao.
Nice video. That midnight snack is huge. Largest portion I've ever seen on biz class. My only complaint is serving the orange juice in a bottle: pouring it in a stem glass would be classier!
Thank you for liking it. Hope you are subscribed for more trip reports soon. Yeah, especially the noodles. Yeah I was quite surprised with that one since on my way to JFK via PR 126, they served in glasses. But yeah, I guess its also a part of saving some weight for the aircraft in order to save fuel consumption? 🤔
Looks like you've passed over the Northernmost City in the world (Longyearbyen) based on the flight path.
Yeah, their route is via North Pole. It was a unique route since typically most fly back via the Pacific Ocean. But PAL did a trans Atlantic flight going back to PH. 😊
PAL, use to stop over in Hawaii, for 30min. for gasoline. Flight time is 18 hours, from LAX to MIA. during my visit in Phil. from 1992-99 once a year, on PAL.
Awesome 👌
I wish their Boeing 777 Business class are also like this
Yeah, tbh, their Boeing 777s Business Class based on some vlogs I watched, were quite old comparing to their A330s and A350s. Hopefully PAL may consider reconfiguring their Boeing 777 to that of their newer business class configurations like A330s and A350s
@@CaptEngrWil But for now PR is like they're under receivership like from 1999 to 2008 since they're off from Chapter 11 restructuring. I wish before or after the new Bulacan Airport opens Lucio Tan should step down as PAL's majority owner and sell his stake to investors who are willing to make PAL's service better.
Well, PAL is still recovering from the effects of the pandemic lockdown that hampered air travel. And yeah, PAL didn't expect the sudden surge of air travel post pandemic that they had to order or lease mo aircrafts. Yeah, hoping for a stronger PAL in the future.
@@CaptEngrWil The best solution overall is not only a better hub but also better management. Lucio Tan should step down as PAL majority owner and sell his stake to investors who are willing to make PAL's service better.
I flew this same flight (127) in April last year. I chose seat 3K. When I boarded, I was shocked that the configuration was 2-3-2 and not 1-2-1. I was very disappointed! the same configuration was on the return flight 126. I just booked again for May and again the seat chart I booked shows 1-2-1. Anyone else get this surprise?
Hey there, I think you rode the Boeing 777-300ER of PAL then. Their business class configuration on that 777 is 2-3-2 configuration. They usually fly the Boeing 777 on some flights to JFK when the Airbus A350-900 isn't available or is scheduled to another route or maintenance
I also think Philippine Airlines should revive their non-stop European flights. I think this should happen once SMC upgrades NAIA to allow a higher annual passenger capacity and NMIA opens to traffic. The following European airports should have non-stop Manila flights using either or both airports: * Lisbon * Madrid * Barcelona * Dublin * London-Gatwick * London-Heathrow * Manchester * Glasgow * Edinburgh * Paris-Charles De Gaulle * Amsterdam-Schiphol * Brussels * Geneva * Zurich * Rome-Fiumicino * Milan-Malpensa * Athens * Frankfurt * Munich * Berlin * Hamburg * Copenhagen * Oslo * Stockholm-Arlanda * Helsinki Other European airports should also have non-stop Manila flights as well.
Yeah, I think with the purchase of more Airbus A350-1000, part of the intention is to expand flights back to Europe particularly to London, which was their discontinued flight due to the pandemic. But yeah, they cannot expand much flights if the airport is overcrowded, so hopefully once NMIA is operational, it may divert some of their flights their so they can expand and catch up with their international competitors.
Impressive but it loses out on some of the cool features of the competitors external camera view on KE🇰🇷 CX🇭🇰 MU🇨🇳
Yeah, that was what i also wanted for PAL to include on their IFE. Hopefully they may consider to upgrade this on their upcoming A350-1000s
@@CaptEngrWil I agree with you and for PR they need to activate those on their B77W A359s A35Ks. On CX and QR those are activated on those planes. For KE A380 B747-8B5 B777-3B5/ER have them activated. Want one of those during the time of PR127 depature from JFK these are KE086 to KE621 for MNL and CX845/843 to CX907 for MNL
