#ibmcsc philippines 14

1st part – São Paulo to Detroit (10 hours) – I have been working so much in the past weeks to close all my things and leave as much as I could organized at home and work, that I was so tired. So this flight was easy! I slept most of the 10 hours.

Gente, reformaram o duty free do Brazil e ele esta enorme.

Stoopover in Detroit – I spent 8 hours in Detroit airport and it was such a nice experience. I mean It wasa lot best than I could imagine.

2nd part – Detroit to Nagoya (12hours)

What a surprise when I was boarding to Delta flight 629, the flight attendant start talking in Tagalog. And the best I understood – Maraming salamat = Thank you very much! This is because this flight is heading to Manila with a stopover in Nagoia.

I was fortunate to meet Ruthy a nice Filipina-Canadian who whas flying back home. She kindly gave me a lot of good information about her home country and helped me on our arrival to PH.

Ruthy and I in Nagoya duty free. // To the kit kat lovers, look how many different flavours the Japanese can choose.

3rd part Nagoya to Manila (4 hours) The easiest flight. At this point I was so used to sleep, I kind of slept all the flight long.

Arrival to Manila at 22:00 on the 14th July – terminal 1.

I was very well welcome! At the customs, none even bother asking me for how long I would stay here, since Brazilians don`t need visa for until 59 days. I just pick up my luggage. Exchange my money at the most right exchange store I think it was Bank of commerce. Then I leave the airport. After cross the street there were the Remington hotel free shuttle waiting for me. This was Waya great advise! Thank you!

Tip for travelers: in Philippines you cannot go back once you pass through the gates. Bellow there is the airport terminal 1 map for you visualize. So you better go to the toillete before pick up luggage, and then exchange your money as soon as you pick your luggage.
