La meilleure compagnie d’avion aux philippines, des prix attractifs, des avions toujours à l’heure. Nous étions en avance à l’aéroport ils nous ont mis sur le vol précédent le notre gratuitement sans qu’on ne demande rien. De plus j’ai oublié mon passeport dans l’avion, j’ai contacté leur support via WhatsApp qui m’a répondu très rapidement et on geré la situation de À à Z. Mon passeport avait été envoyé sur une autre île, ils me l’ont ramené sur la mienne le jour d’après. J’ai pu le récupérer sans aucun problème. Je recommande cette compagnie pour vos vols aux philippines.

Worst airline ever! PAL - Plane Always Late - never changed, never improved, still cellar dweller. Dave Hizon, are you still with PAL? You should be FIRED!!!!

Es hat immer alles gepasst, noch nie Probleme gehabt und immer unglaublich freundliches Personal! Vom check-in bis zur Cabin Crew war alle immer super ! Nett und freundlich, sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Gibt nichts besseres von Manila nach Dumaguete City . Nicht alles high tech aber großartig, danke und bis bald Philippine airlines!

This airline constantly changes or cancels flights without getting any information or refunds. They'll send you 10 emails to confuse you further. Absolutely dismal. I am waiting for a refund for months now. We had to re-book for different dates and now they have canceled again. My friend is stuck in Philippines. connecting flight is now also in jeopardy and nobody to speak to at the airline. The absolute worst airline. Avoid if you can.

Svar från Philippine Airlines
Rude, incompetent little foes. Spent 30 minutes in check in line waiting for a broken printer and their attitude was way too casual.

Svar från Philippine Airlines
The airline cancelled part of my itinerary before departure, making the trip impossible. I contacted them in advance, and they confirmed in writing that I am entitled to a full refund.
Nearly 2 years later, the refund is still not resolved.
Instead, I’ve been stuck between Philippine Airlines and Booking.com, with both sides shifting responsibility and no outcome.
Despite written confirmation from the airline, the case remains unresolved after 40+ emails.
Based on this experience, I strongly recommend avoiding Philippine Airlines. If something goes wrong, you may not get your money back.

Svar från Philippine Airlines
I am extremely disappointed with the service from Philippine Airlines.
I didn’t want to escalate this publicly, but after two months of no resolution, I feel I have no other choice. I have been trying to get my refund for the past two months, and all I’ve experienced is being passed from one department to another with no clear answer.

My flight in February was turned back midway, and I was assured that I would receive a full refund. I even received confirmation via email stating that I am eligible for the full refund. However, despite multiple follow-ups, there has been no progress.
Every week, I speak to a different call center agent, and each time I have to explain the entire situation again. Unfortunately, no one has been able to provide a proper update or solution.
This level of service is extremely frustrating and unacceptable. and I strongly urge the airline to improve its customer support so others do not go through the same experience.

Philippine airlines lost my 55 liter bag and was never able to trace my bag from the point when they lost it on march 30 to april 16. I then immediately started a lost bag claim at manila airport, at which I followed every direction they provided, as drawn out amd difficult as it ended up being. After a week or so, I filed a reimbursement claim for a value of 1,650.00 USD where they wanted receipts of ALL purchases within that bag, which is absurd as those items were purchased over a period of 5 years. I was told it is fine if there are no receipts and to note that on the reimbursement form for the claims departmemt to review. Honestly I cannot think of many people who would keep receipts dating back that far, s who anticipates losing their bag while traveling. After a week of radio silence from the claims departmemt, they come back with an offer of 150.00 USD. Utterly disgraceful and some of the worst business practices I have witnessed on account on philippines airlines part. Do not ever fly through them, if I could give zero stars I would.

Not happy with the Customer service at the Airport.
We were supposed to fly with a different airline from Melbourne to Osaka but unfortunately that got cancelled. We booked with Philippines Airlines 10 hours before the flight time. Knowing theres a 18 hours transit, we did not had enough time to apply for a transit visa.
We just arrived at Manila airport, went to the customer service desk, explained everything with a hope they would accommodate us with something for 18 hours. Not just they were clueless but Instead they simply said we can't help you, you have to stay in the transit lounge on benches. The lounges only allow 3hours max(Paid).
We have returned flights all confirmed with PAL but they have no services for Transit passengers unless you are from certain country.
Disappointed!!

Very disappointing experience with Philippine Airlines.
On February 20, 2026, I had a flight from Cebu to Siargao (PR2374), which was cancelled due to adverse weather conditions. I fully understand that safety must come first, and I do not question the cancellation itself.
The issue is what happened afterwards. No meaningful alternative solution or real assistance was provided. I was left completely on my own to manage the situation, forced to rebook flights, cover additional accommodation, meals, and transportation costs, and also lost subsequent flights I had already booked.
Despite clearly explaining the financial and logistical impact, the airline only refunded the original ticket and refused any form of compensation or even a basic goodwill gesture (voucher, credit, etc.).
I understand the concept of force majeure, but there is a clear difference between an unavoidable cancellation and the complete lack of customer support afterwards.
Situations like this are where an airline truly shows its level of service, and unfortunately, this experience fell far below expectations.
I will carefully reconsider my options before choosing this airline again.

Svar från Philippine Airlines
They are upgrading system is the worst they tell you if the bid is successful or not after you’re in the air for the second flight and they make you open your checked in luggage during your connection in Philippines to ensure there is no battery power devices. This is done in Manila when I was taking a flight from Tokyo to Melbourne absolutely ridiculous delayed our flight stressed us.

Flying out of Manila on flight 116 to Vancouver Canada. Went through screening and had to wait in a long line just to sit. Once on the gate area not allowed to use bathrooms or bring water through. Forced to leave area to get a water that can not be brought back into seating area. Bathrooms are also outside of seating area and you are requir d to be x rayed again to return to your seat. If you are a solo traveler you will need to have your carey on screened again to get to your waiting seat. What kind of fool came up with this lunatic ideal. We were all already screened as are the retail shops. Would never take your flight out of Manila again. Worst airline ever and simply unintelligent people in charge that came up with this.
In reply to your answer. I live in Vancouver and have flown out and back from several countries. No other country does what you do. If your airport vendors are not secure to sell me water then why arre they there. I have always been able to use the bathroom and bring water from inside the airport vendors on to the plane headed back to Canada. People that need to taake meds are now required to leave their seat and it they are a lone traveler lose their seat to get a drink. Your policy is not Canadian and is solely your choice.

I using Philippines airlines from Melbourne to bkk and return in business class was very messy and not worth paying for it.
*Chick in at bkk airport I was waiting 1.30 hours to get checked in .
*At the plane business class not really full.
* toilet seems for all classes.
*Food very basic.
*drinks cheap wine .
Next trip will probably not use Philippines airlines again.

Svar från Philippine Airlines
I would strongly recommend avoiding this airline. First-class scammers. They change weight categories for flights, and the scales for suitcases and bags are not properly calibrated, so you automatically end up paying extra. Without noticing, I almost paid for 12 kg when it should have been 6 kg. So, do not choose this airline!!
Oh, and to make matters worse, the flight was also canceled. As a result, I lost an additional €500 on unused hotels, a canceled boat trip in Coron, and having to book an extra hotel.

UPDATE
To their credit I did get a response and a credit for future travel covering less that 1/3 of my outlay. I DID NOT take that up as I am unlikely to travel with Philippine Airlines again due to this extra charge on a gift from work colleagues.
I am still aggrieved so deserving of this update to show how these things can pan out. I have spent far more than $400 in battling this wrongful charge to no avail and I will not stop sharing my plight to all and sundry. People need to be very AWARE. Always check and never believe the reading that you might get. I'd love to hear from anyone who has been through a similar experience. This surely cannot be an isolated case!!
ORIGINAL REVIEW
I was wrongly charged $400 for excess baggage on a Business Class flight (midnight I might add) and found out later that they had overweighed one of my packages as 16kg which was actually only 2.26kg. Lightweight right? Despite trying to show proof of this when i got home, they will not entertain any error on their part. I have been skinned and will not fly with them again.
If not for this unsavoury experience, I would keep flying with them as i have traveled many times on business before

Svar från Philippine Airlines
I am writing to formally follow up on my unresolved lost luggage claim, which has now been outstanding for over four months.
Despite my patience and multiple follow-ups, I have not received any meaningful update or resolution from the Bangkok (BKK) luggage team regarding my case. This delay is unacceptable, and it has caused significant inconvenience and distress.
I have allowed ample time for your team to investigate and resolve this matter in good faith. However, as there has been no progress, I must now escalate the situation.
Please treat this email as my final formal notice. If I do not receive a clear update and resolution within the next 7 days, I will proceed with legal action against Philippine Airlines. My lawyer has advised me to send this final communication before initiating further steps.
I urge you to prioritize my case and provide:
• A clear update on the status of my lost luggage
• A timeline for resolution
• Details of compensation or reimbursement
Please respond urgently to avoid further escalation.

Total Incompetence and Broken System
We flew Perth to Manila on 25 Dec 2025. Due a problem with Perth’s baggage handling our bags did not get on our flight. Baggage Report submitted that day.
Perth got our bags to MNL (via Singapore) in an impressive 22 hours. It then took PAL 60 hours to get our suitcases the 12 km to our hotel and delivered them at 2:30am.
11 weeks after submitting all of the requested paperwork, I still have not been reimbursed for the few clothes I purchased. Repeated hastening by me only resultes in an email from Customer Service to the MNL Baggage Dept, which they constantly ignore.

Svar från Philippine Airlines
We have been dealing with Philippine Airlines for over 4 months regarding our lost luggage, and the level of incompetence is shocking.
We have submitted the claim form three times, yet there has been zero progress and no compensation. Every follow-up is met with the same excuse—that the Bangkok baggage team has not responded. This is not a customer problem; it is an internal failure, and passing blame like this is unacceptable.
As business passengers, we expected professionalism. Instead, our holiday was completely ruined by poor handling, lack of accountability, and endless delays. No ownership, no urgency, no resolution.
At this point, it feels like deliberate stalling rather than customer service.
Avoid this airline if you expect reliability or basic responsibility when things go wrong.

Abysmal booking user interface-website just freezes at the payment part. Calling phone support and pricing is different (more expensive). Awful customer experience
