Free PAL airlift of donations for Ondoy victims. Philippine Airlines will airlift for free all relief donations intended for victims of typhoon Ondoy. All provincial PAL stations will load on flights bound for Manila any bulk cargo box containing donations addressed to reputable, non-profit, charitable organizations in Manila. To maximize the cargo load of the aircraft, PAL station heads will be verifying and limiting the contents of the donation boxes to items of value and use, and exclude such donations as expired food and medicines, water, rice (due to weight considerations) and unusable stuff. Complete information of the consignee organization must be supplied with the cargo box/container inscribed with "care of the PAL Foundation". Individual donations for private or personal families will not be accommodated. Meanwhile, PAL passengers whose flights were affected by typhoon Ondoy will not be charged any penalties when rebooking for the next available flights. PAL ticket holders with confirmed bookings from September 26 to October 4, 2009 will have all penalties waived when rebooking. - Taken from the PAL website, dated September 28, 2009

ReplyDeletePlease pass if may mga kilala kayo from the provinces who want to send...
thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletethank you also for passing by...every little thing helps at this point...
ReplyDeletebut coming from Spore... they won't accept free transport unless only medicines and items with cost value. not used clothing even though i said all used clothing will be checked to make sure only usable ones as i want also to give dignity to those who will receive them. but PAL says no unless medicines and like lutuan daw. no food like instant noodles kasi cheaper daw dyan.
ReplyDeletethis is for here lang Helene...not outside sa Phils I think...
ReplyDeletehmm..Helene, how about yung ibang airlines like Cebu Pacific etc. even if budget baka rin meron silang consideration like discount or something?
ReplyDelete*like*
ReplyDeletelumalabas talaga FB'er tendency mo hehehe..
ReplyDeletetrying SIA
ReplyDeletewala bang free airlift from sg?
ReplyDeleteHelene said she tried talking to PAL dyan..pero mukhang domestic lang yata to...
ReplyDeleteI'm having a problem with this typhoon Ondoy relief thing. The appeal is everywhere, here and across North America, and wherever there are Pinoys like in the Middle East, the UK, and Europe. FOUR of the world's richest people live in the Philippines. Together, these FOUR BILLIONAIRES can easily cover all the costs of flood relief efforts. There's no need to drain the pockets of ordinary Pinoys who are having a tough time making both ends meet in these times of global recession.
ReplyDeleteyou know, for some reason or another I am reminded of another post I read earlier today...
ReplyDeletesomething about several crocodiles from Pasig Nature Park being missing...
at ano ang connection sa post ni BNK? abangan sa susunod na post dito :-)
Ano nga kaya? Curious na ako.
ReplyDeleteLOL @ crocodiles
ReplyDeleteat cat, yes, this is for domestic flights only. also posted at the site are the conditions of items allowable for airlift (considerations give to items that weigh less). but i understand these bulk items are to be addressed to charitable institutions, who, therefore, have to pick up the items at the airport.
for those without contacts of institutions in manila can drop their donations at any abs-cbn station.
kc, on that kind of news about crocodiles being missing, eto ang rejoinder ng isa:
ReplyDelete"yon sa aking source, half of the crocodiles were seen somewhere in batasan, some in GSIS building and a family of crocodiles somewhere in San Miguel, Manila."
so when you said some people were rich enough to blah-blah...ayon, yung utak ko napunta sa buaya...
hehehe..that crocodile thingie was unexpectedly hilarious, although I was really weirded out at first...
ReplyDeletethanks for clearing that up about the PAL flights Kat...for now, my eyes are glued to that other weather disturbance...
kitakits kami ni mother duck nimo later...
no problem. kinakabahan na yan si mother duck kasi may two groups kami dyan - one arriving there today, the other one tomorrow. i hope no big problems arise. ingat kayo!
ReplyDeletethanks! its a bit sunnier today...but not the usual we had expected...
