"Clark Airport, sometimes also referred to as Pampanga."
This is WRONG !!
Clark airport is knowned as Clark Airport Base or CAFB. Now, Diosdado Macapagal International Airport or DMIA.
CAFB or DMIA is in Angeles City, and angeles city is in Pampanga. Angeles city administers itself autonomously from Pampanga. It is not deserted, there are foreign companies who invested themselves in improving it making it a major airport by 2015.
@rehabboy01 Well, all the locals call it Pampanga, they wouldn't bother memorising the new complicated name. And despite the important sounding investments it currently serves about 10 flights per day. I don't know about you but for me that certainly is deserted. So I'll wait with correcting the facts at least until 2015 ;)
@exoticjourneys: Well, You misinterpret wot the locals told you. I was assigned here/asia for business - property/hotel prospect for 10 yrs back in the 80's/90's & its definitely called CAFB or DMIA now. It may be deserted when the base was closed, but it's sure not deserted now. You have a diff definition of deserted. Ive traveled on buss & leisure, been to major, wealthy, exotic, remote, deserted city/places, this 1 aint it. I was just there nov. '09.
Wow, strange to hear the airline piping in a music channel over the PA. Here in the US I don't recall hearing any music except subdued stuff during boarding (mostly on the larger jets). I was at Clark in the early 1980s... it's great to see the area there prospering and growing.
thanks, their service is ok as long as everything goes smoothly. they are not very good in handling special requests/complaints and unusual situations. but i've flown with them nearly 20 times and i will in the future so they are ok for a budget airline.
wow---how clear your film is----love it ---bubbles

@rehabboy01 I'm happy to see that we seem to agree that it is all a matter of interpretation :)

exoticjourneys 2 years ago
Well that's good to know.
and do they have first class or are they like other low cost airlines that have economy through the cabin?
iflydelta1101 2 years ago
economy throughout the cabin, but they do have so-called premium seats (with more legroom) on longer flights.
exoticjourneys 2 years ago
Oh that's good.
and are their seats leather?
iflydelta1101 2 years ago
Yes. Black leather - at least in those planes that I took. I've never flown longer distances with them though. Where are you planning to fly?
exoticjourneys 2 years ago
