Huh...Delta only seems to fly into Manilla but it does connect through Tokyo. Pricing though...anything booked over the next 30 days is in the $7,400 category. Yikes. Looks like prices drop in March/April to $1400. I was looking for a mileage run before year end...I need 13k more to make Platinum.

I booked my flight 2 days ago and got airfare for $1230 from Nashville to Cebu round trip in Asiana Airlines....I would not fly anyone else. The food and service is amazing and even in coach it is roomy

Christmas would be tough at that price. But I definitely plan on getting out that way first half of 2015 and would love a local experience vs the tourist crap. I try to get to a few out of the way places a year. I'll definitely take you up on that.

Dixie...when is your next planned trip after this Christmas?

Is this so you have a handy holding stick whilst eating them? A cat-corndog if you will.

Show us the loot. A pic of you in the Santa suit would be good too. You know, for posterity and all.

I will do the shopping over in Bantayan again this year..

I was planing to do it this week but the storm issues put me behind schedule a bit. we were planning to go yesterday but it was raining in the afternoon.

Hope to go in the next day or two to get started on this, need to find a truck to haul all the goodies home with.

Also had a few more people chip in on this so I will update that also.

We have more than enough to make this happen.

I will get pics and post in the next few days.

Update on how we are doing on this.

We now have more than enough I think, so no need to send anymore.

$1780

Also since we have extra money.. there is a small area over by the next village over in Sillion where we stayed during the Typhoon last week, I am planning to find out how many kids are living there but I am guessing somewhere around 150 to 200 and going to try to get toys for them all also.

I am going to go start shopping tomorrow or the next day and will get photos from the store.

Thank You Very Much Everyone!
