    Hi everyone, I am very new to the site and I'm sure this topic has been discussed at some point.
    I'm planning a trip to Manila in January and I am planning to use my new benefits on Northwest has anyone had any trouble going through NRT to Manila on NWA? I usually use United to Hong Kong or Singapore and then buy a ticket on one of the local carriers like Cebu Pacific.
    Thanks and have a Happy Holidays everyone.

    Don't forget DTW-NGO-MNL. I looked into MNL a couple months ago, and everything NRT-USA was full, but MNL-NGO-DTW was pretty open. I'm not too certain of the patterns of traffic into MNL and when is the best time of year to try. See if Jumper or MRS767 can check loads for you, I no longer have access to Travelnet.

    In the last year i have been to manila twice.... once during holy week in april and once in ealry nov. Are you able to get passes in first class? If so i would advise you to do that. Coach from mnl-nrt is usually oversold. And when i say oversold i dont mean by 1 or 2. Its usually oversold by 30 or 40.

    If you cant get First class tickets I would take the mnl-ngo-dtw or mnl-ngo-nrt-to the west coast. MNL-NGO-NRT is usually open whenever i check.

    I usually get backups on JL just in case MNL-NRT. I dont know what pass agreements you have but see if you can get some sort of backup.

    And also to get to NRT, PDX and SFO usually have the most open seats. Sea and Lax always goes out full it seems.


    Also to get there DTW-NGO-MNL is usually open

    It looks like I have full access and can book in Business, I wasn't sure how that worked though because with United they move Economy Passengers to First and Business if they are overbooked in Eco. I have noticed the same thing with DTW and NGO also.

    Thanks for responding I am just really new to NWA and travelnet. Normally I am using United Expressnet or the US Airways Hub.
