Let us know about your experience next time, QL.

Cebu Pac is the worst, though it's economy compared to PAL.

I have been to Inner Mongolia and spent 7 days in Hohhot. It is a pretty cool place. I was there in 2016. I have to dig up some pictures.

I flew PAL from Manila to Cebu back in January. The pilot had kind of a hard landing in Cebu.

It wasn't too bad though.

I used to work for the company that installed all the IT infrastructure at the Hong Kong airport. They had all their expenses paid for well over a year so they didn't have to pay rent back home or even meals. Some guys were able to save up enough money for a down payment on a house by not having those expenses.

Thailand is now the country with the oldest population in Southeast Asia and ranks as the 6th oldest in Asia.

Data from Visual Capitalist, based on 2024 estimates from the CIA World Factbook, highlights global rankings of countries by median age, with a higher median age reflecting an aging population.

Japan leads Asia with the oldest population, boasting a median age of 50 years. Thailand follows as the 6th oldest at 42 years, while Singapore ranks 8th with 39 years, and Vietnam takes the 16th spot with a median age of 33 years.

Oh no, it was not a good experience. Was it bad weather at that time?

Wow! They even survey this? haha..

No. It was pretty clear.

The airport there is on Mactan Island in the city Lapu-Lapu. It's near the place where Magellan was killed in a native uprising.
