Angeles City (Balibago) Tips

[The Lord]

One of my GFs (FnB) was from Santo Nino which is an island.

To get there you gotta hit Calbayog City first...

Overnight ferries from Cebu exist.... Or u can take d flight to Calbayog.... Limited choice of airlines.... Cebupac closed tht route mid Feb.

A nice place to stay...

Security at cheap motels...? How to say.... Even hotels with armed guards.... The guards r shot dead....

Dun keep valuables ipad/laptop.... And if u do.... Then stay in a better hotel...

Generally ok unless u r out of luck...

The place at Sto Nino... Even aircons run on gensets... Cant get better right?

My GF had a neat 3 storey house... Quite surprising..

Tacloban city has beaches ...

Better to find them from dating/social networking sites n head tona lovely beach

Where in Leyte should I go to find both lots of girls, and a nice beach? (Tacloban doesn't have beaches from what I can tell)

Bro, permit me to explain how the tickets are priced.

All tickets are put into buckets, each bucket have different prices. (Buckets here all have different conditions). Most times all the bucket contain tickets, however during some peak periods where the airline know that demand will be very high, they remove the tickets in the cheapest bucket and reallocate to more expensive buckets. Sometime for advertising, they leave 1 or 2 tickets in the cheapest buckets. When passengers start buying as the cheaper buckets run out of ticket the price increases as only tickets in more expensive buckets remain. Sometime a passenger may intentionally choose to buy a ticket in a more expensive bucket because of the conditions, eg. can change date, refundable (not for LCCs).

These buckets are monitored on a 24 hour basis 7 days a week using automated systems. Tickets are available for sale 360 days in advance of travel, although you will usually see tickets for sale up to the end of the next October or April. The booking profile for Asians tends to be short (we decide very last minute as we tend to go for shorter holidays than the westerners), and you will see ticket prices rise quickly when the time to departure get under 30 days - the reason is most Asian tend to book flight up to 30 days from departure, it really starts picking up 2 weeks from date of departure.

As a general rule you will get the cheapest tickets the earlier you book. The peak dates you have indicated will not get cheaper, and will only increase in price. My suggestion is to change your date of travel. Try 31 December, since for some strange reason, people don't like to travel on New Year's eve.

Occasionally, when some airlines has mispriced, they end up panicking as they have too much unsold inventory, here what the airline will do is they might start to price slightly lower and offer promo fares (or if they are responding to promos from other airlines)

Unless you have friends in the revenue pricing department that can put ticket in the cheapest bucket for you to buy immediately, very seldom prices will fall.

The ultimate goal of the guy pricing the tickets is to have all but 1 seat sold (meaning 1 seat left unsold) when the flight takes off. Then he/she will know that he has fully maximised the total revenue potential of the flight. Because If all the tickets are full sold out, it means they have under priced the tickets (someone might be willing to pay more for the last seat), if too many tickets remain they have over priced the tickets.

Sorry for being long winded. I love airlines... so just gave you a 101 lesson in revenue pricing for airlines. Occasionally there may be a super promotion, where some selected seats are made available at artificially low prices. So I would advice you to wait for this promo, maybe you may be lucky. Anyway you still have time because booking usually don't start ramping up until 1 month before travel, but on super peak dates, eg. Christmas, Holy Week, etc, this can start happening as early as 3 months before date of travel. Alternatively, you can either change the date of travel or buy now if you don't want to take the risk.

Hello to bro datou, ziebart, the lord and etsys. And to all fellow Sammy bros.

I need some advice here. If I want to book a flight to Clark from 29dec to 5 jan 2013. Will the prices drop since its more than 8 months ahead?
Cebu cost about 300 for flights during that time. Tiger is worse. 600.

Should I hold off buying? I'm thinking of buying by June.
And it's 3 person flying. So if 3 person is about 1k which is quite high.

Any advice from experienced bros here?
Finally I can find time to enjoy in Angeles.

Cheers!

P/s: it really disheartening to see our two bros fighting. The last time I remember is all of us happily chatting in a pub downtown. I hope none of u will leave this thread as you all are great contributors and please bury the hatchet and be friends again. What don't kill you makes you stronger di ba.
I'm a loyal follower of this thread and I read this everyday.

Ciaozz

So it's a repeat of our last meeting: You, me, ZIEBART, BC n maybe your friend. Next time don't inform last min mah.



1st day morning 7am

Arranged a Cavite girl coming to Angeles meet me afternoon. Went to sleep n woke up 10 am.

Santos girl called informed her i in Manila, Fantasy Girl called asked me go barfine her in bar but i told her I free only after 2am after her shift. So arranged meet 2am.

Cavite girl texted couldn't make it which not unexpected, so went out late lunch at 3pm. As weather was extremely hot, went back hotel surf net n slept.

Woke up almost midnite, must be really tired. Suddenly heavy downpour but stop after 20mins. Went to pickup Fantasy girl n went for food chop suey n curry chicken w rice n drinks total 180p at a shop near 7-11 Mcarthur.
She start tellin me her phone was snatched at 7-11, show me some abrasion injury on her hand n a cheap 20+ nokia phone which she claimed borrowed from her cousin.

I asked her why she still using the same sim card, she explained that the stolen expensive phone 5000p was using another card she has.
I smiled n say: Cheap phone also snatch, expensive phone also snatch, next time use cheap phone better lah.
She asked me buy a 1000p camera phone for her, I just said we'll see how, maybe get a 2nd hand one for her.

Suddenly rain again so have to take trike back to hotel, quoted 100p nego to 50p. Girl around n rain bopian if not i sure say 40p as hotel very near.
Not because i calculative, but dislike their fxxking attitude to slaughter us.

Reached hotel n room. 3am
As previous time, sextifying sexxion w long dfk, long bbbj n moans. Bonking didn't last long n finished in mish. Went to sleep.
Another good sexxion at 6am , took some pictures give a watch as post birthday gift n some cash n off she went , not too happy i think cause no goodbye kiss. Maybe cause never give her money for cell phone purchase??

bro, have more than one DIA girl to meet. they are a good way to spend the day. usually, i will ask them to meet directly at the mall, then can go watch movie, makan, window shop etc. whether they will end up in your room depends on the feel and vibe la.

also, i usually won't pay for their transport but will buy them makan/movie la. those who keep asking you to pay is probably looking for a carrot-head.

IF they come!! To avoid being seen is tough. Cos as foreigners, we stick out like a sore thumb. Stay indoors and avoid the malls.

Since when I become Master or Sifu? I m very far from being one n still learning from the real Masters n Sifus.

Some of these girls who stayed some distance away borrowed money to come to meet. Some need trike transfers as their home is off the jeepney route.

So though u may treat them to food n entertainment, the most basic way to show appreciation for their company is giving adequate transport money.
The food n entertainment cannot be cashed for their debt.
Just tell them it's for their transport n they will definitely appreciate it.

Avoid attention is the best for me to avoid running into another girl when with one.
Now I always wait at a corner for them w some cover instead of the main street.
Nearly kenna cause both girls off work at sametime n walking the same way.

Also be ready for last min aeroplanes, cmi due to watever reasons. Time wasted waiting for them. So u must ask if time is tight for u.

You are not master sifu you are the latest ac warrior.

Traveling so often to ac & bever fail to share your fr like 大男人周记.

I think it's only fair to provide some transpot/meal movie for these little girls they time & effort to spend sometime with us without getting paid like bargirl after all.

Just don't let them take advantage on u.I had encounter girl bringing thier friends,cousin,cousin boyfriend,boyfriend of sister etc expecting me to pay for all of them & of course I keluar baris like rocket.

Rub&Buah: Well said. I like the keluar baris like rocket part.

I also fully agree that we must not let the girl "lose" after coming to meet us. Even if they "refused" to be bedded by us. They have used money for fare and given us their time. Do remember to say that you are helping out with their fare as they are leaving. But if she is a successful professional or businesswoman, then you use your discretion.

For a guide. Bus fare from Manila about 300p return. Trike n jeep about 100p. Minimum is 500p to give but 700p is recommended. Small money to us but big to an unemployed filipina.

[The Lord]

I agree with

Yes he is definitely a warrior. Agrred....

So many trips.... I so J leh...

One thing i admire abt Bro datou is his lovely FRS.

He never fails in his FRs...

They r detailed n even highlight negatives.... Eg., got runner, girl aeroplane, girl ask for hp etc...

These r things that make the FR so full of knowledge for us..

Bro rubnbuah agree with u...

Yes never let them take advantage of ur kindness... Some of these girlz r blood suckers.... Young n pretty they may be.... But just like they suck ur balls... They also know how to squeeze u dry..

Hence its important to state ur OB markers clearly....

Dun hesitate.... Dun feel shy.... This is if u like the girl... I can care for u... But not ur family n extended family....

I can care for u wht i think is reasonable..... Eg. They ask u expensive ph, laptop u mati ....unless u 1 2 pay.

Transport... Food.... Medicines.... Movies.... Drinks is usually ok ... I dun mean splurging on LDs....

If the girl is thrifty by all means do more n tell her tht u appreciate her penny wise ways...

a lil bit of charity is always good... They need tht lil bit of money a lot more than v can find uses for it...
