NEW ANGELES CITY (Pampanga, Balibago, Subic) PI

[BFOMF5]

Haha

you make me recall when clark was still an airbase.
Then I use the Silver Wing Bus ply between CAB and MNL.
This bus do stop at some big hotels in Metro Manila.

After Pinatubo eruption CAB closed no more silver wing.
But there was an aussie hotel club group (sorry can't remember name) that provide the same services but the prices was too high.

So I decide to switch to local transport.
Yes.. at that time There were some Love Bus (targeting the tourist maket ) that serve within MNL n it still subjected to the heavy traffic jam.

So to beat the traffic...
I took mrt
First .. walk to domestic
then took jeepnee to Baclaran MRT
catch the train to Tayuman MRT
After that another jeepnee to Laong Laan area.
Then took Dangwa bus to Dau
And finally jeepnee to BB.

That How I reach AC B4 tiger fly to Clark..

Thanks for reading...
Lolo giving history lesson.

BFOMF5,

You have lots of patience, not me, I just want to go straight to my destination ASAP! Also, I might ask other members from PI @ NIGHT, who wants to travel together to AC from Manila.

Swagman still operating LOLO.



Norice, taking local transportation works some time ..

Btw, there's a new bus UBE express, from airport to limited stop destinations.

And Victory liner also run shuttle from NAIA to their terminal -> take their Air con bus to Dau

[norice]

Thanks for your advice!

Most likely, taxi, margarita Station van or southrrn cross van. Do you have any other suggestion? Since, this will be my first trip going to AC from Manila?

If is your first time, I think you book the taxi from hotel better and save 2700php

Aircon jeepnee cost php50/pax

It's now 100p for foreigners using the aircon jeepney from DMIA to Balibago/Dau.... if you insist on paying only 50p they tell you to wait until all the locals have boarded the jeep hey and then you can board after them if there's any vacancy left.

Unless you look like a pinoy and can speak their lingo..... last trip an angmo expat sitting beside me was kicked off the jeepney for refusing to pay the extra 50p..... and he has been residing in AC for the past 7 years with his filipina wife.

WTF 100% more
hopes that is an isolated case.
I think once you query..
they will treat you as carot.

Usually I will use the trick of pay and "run"
1. Prepare. exact amount
2. Board with some pino and KEEP quite
3. ALIGHT some distance after destination.
4. Pay and walk against the traffic without looking back.

BUt this apply only under the following conditions
1. THEY don't do pre-collection
2. YOU travel light.

1 of the Bro always paid 8 peso/pax to take a Bus from Field Ave to Perimeter. But that day we paid extra 5 peso to the pre-collection cos we are foreigners.

But we paid 8 peso/pax only after boarded to the Driver when we return.

Extra 5 peso per pax goes into the ticket counter pocket maybe
