From the rates I’ve looked through, the Hong Kong one seems to give you the most bang for your buck, at 888 dollars for a roundtrip fare in Mabuhay class. If you break it down that means 444 dollars each, which multiplied by 41 (our current exchange rate varies but 41 seems like a conservative estimate) equals 18,204 pesos. For a round trip business class ticket to HK, that’s really not a bad deal. For comparison, a round trip ticket with Cebu Pacific at regular rates at the same time period would cost from between 6k-12k pesos. Flying Philippine Airlines also allows you access to the much nicer Terminal 2 (have you BEEN to Terminal 1 lately? It’s almost embarrassing that most Foreigners get dropped off there) of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.

If you do decide to go to Hong Kong, here are some websites that show you what you can do there, aside from indulging in pure lustful commercialism.
