One week before I leave for Manila. I've only booked my flight to/from MNL and Tokyo. My flight to tokyo (from manila) cost about USD 150 less than my flight from NY to MNL. Insane.
Luckily, airlines like jetstar, cebu pacific, tiger air, etc... exist. I wonder how reliable their websites are when I purchase overseas. Will find out soon I suppose. Here's the tentative plan so far:
Manila
Cebu
Tokyo
Singapore
Cambodia
Laos
Vietnam (Saigon, Hanoi & HoiAn)
Thailand (Bangkok, Chiang Mai & Samui. Maybe Phi Phi)
Hong Kong (late)
Perth (go down south)
Sydney
Whitsunday
Possibilities:
Kuala Lumpur
Bali
Bangalore
Let's see how far I can stretch my dollar ;)
