I'm planning to go to the Philippines next February, and right now the tickets there are really expensive. So, I was just wondering, do you think the prices will go down after the holiday season??
Answer 1 :
Most airline and travel websites are already showing good prices to the Philippines in February. Now and between a month or so out usually will have the best fares. Korean Air is showing a flight from LAX to Manila for $688, China Airlines for $732 and Philippine Airlines for $895, I don't think you can do much better than the Korean and China Airlines prices.
Although the Xmas season is one of the most expensive times to fly, prices in February aren't affected by the prices around Xmas. The Philippine Airline price might come down, but I doubt if the Korean and China Airline prices will get any lower. Also, be careful when you book in February, Chinese New Year is in February and prices normally go up on many Asian airlines that time of year.
Answer 2 :
Summer, the winter holidays, thanksgiving, and spring break are the times when airlines tend to make the most money. People want to travel to see their families or take a vacation at these times, and the airlines see that if people feel the need to travel at these times, the airlines can raise ticket prices. Early February, or even late January should be a decent time to book. A ticket to the Philippines will still be expensive because of the distance, but not as pricey as during the above travel primetimes.
It will definitely go down after the holidays because right now people want to go visit their family. So after Christmad and New Year it will go down.

When will I get my holiday tickets?
Booked a holiday back last year with thomas cook. Im leaving on the 28th september. Can anybody tell me roughly how long before I will receive them?Also what exactley does it say on the tickets? This is my 1st time abroad so I havent got a clue!! Im so excited, cant wait! Can anybody help???
Answer 1 :
Check out your booking form, it should tell you on there when they normally send out the tickets but I think its about 2weeks prior to depature. Your tickets tell you the flight number and the departure airport and the time of departure. Have a great holiday
Answer 2 :
Roughly two weeks before.
Found this on one companies site
When will I receive my flight tickets?
Usually for bookings made more than 14 days prior to departure (21 days in high season) we will receive tickets 5-10 days prior to your holiday, they are then forwarded to you that day. Unfortunately there are rare occasions where they do not arrive to us in time to be posted, this is outside the control of Sunmaster Holidays. If this does happen there is no need to worry, we will arrange for you to collect your tickets at the airport (please see the ‘How do I collect my Tickets on Departure?’ section below). Bookings made within 14 days (and 21 days in high season) of travel will be a ticket on departure (you will collect your tickets from the tour operators desk at the airport).
Answer 3 :
i traveleed by thomas cook 2 years in a row and your tickets will be sent to your house 2 weeks before you are expected to travel.
the tickets are attacted to a little booklet which has the names of all the pasangers in your group if they are an adult or child ,
also it has helth and safety and it tells you how much luggage you are allowed to bring there will also be a letter with your transfer info on
etc...
if you need any other info please ask me .
have a great holiday

Can I fly to Australia with a one way ticket on a tourist visa if my working holiday visa being processed?
Can I fly to Australia with a one way ticket on a tourist visa if my working holiday visa being processed?
Answer 1 :
I very much doubt it. Best to wait until your working visa is processed. Customs like to know if you have enough money to support yourself whilst in Australia, and at least enough money to get back home again, or a return ticket already booked and paid for.
If u do come....welcome...and hope u enjoy our beautiful diverse country.
Answer 2 :
You should check with your local Australian embassy, or with the department of immigration (http://www.immi.gov.au ).
As far as I understand, customs and immigration in ANY country will treat you with suspicion if you arrive on a one-way ticket. It shows that you have no real plan to ever leave the country again. That's fine if you are migrating to live permanently in Australia, but neither of the visas you are interested in is of that type.

Has anyone been on a working holiday visa to australia, if you have a single ticket, how much sufficient funds
do you need to have? is it still $5000 aud, or is it more with single ticket? please advise me.
you stupid dick yes you can go on single ticket you just need evidence of funds you can get a flight home
Answer 1 :
Yes, you still need the 5,000 AUD to get an Australian working holiday visa to support your trip and be able to purchase a return ticket. Aside from that, you also need to be at least 18 to apply for the visa and have no dependent children. You can check out the requirements here http://www.nationalvisas.com.au/working/…
For the application cost, this online service offers 190 AUD for the visa application charge : http://www.nationalvisas.com.au/working/…
Answer 2 :
no need to be so rude to the person that answered you,he/she makes a valid point. Customs CAN refuse you entry with a one way ticket,some airlines will not even let you board on a one way ticket if you are not a resident of the country you are flying to,and i know this for a fact because it happened to me so before you call people a stupid dick get your facts right!!
and if the visa application says you need 5000 then that's what you need,you must follow the rules of Australia or don't bother applying,with an attitude like yours you wont be welcomed by Australians
Answer 3 :
You wont be able to enter Australia with a single ticket. They'll send you back where you came from before you even leave the airport.
Australia has one of the toughest immigration/customs departments in the world - equal or worse than the US, if you get the wrong person in a crabby mood.
It is highly unlikely that they would let you in with a one way ticket.Thye would suspect that you want to stay here.
