Quote: Is SAN still in PR's scopes? We could use the lift. Signed: Tired of giving MNL quotes from LAX when PAX live in SAN. |
Quoting Malaysia (Reply 6): I thought you cannot fly pax between SAN-HNL if it was PR? |
Quoting Coronado990 (Reply 7): HNL is a fuel stop as westbound flights operate into headwinds. LAX and SFO flights to MNL make the fuel stop at HNL as well. I am sure a lack of aircraft is what is holding PR back. |

Quoting Malaysia (Reply 8): I was also referring to the last person who posted about the infrastructure being there for SAN-HNL-MNL (probably expecting that they could do cabotage) PR does not have rights to fly PAX just between HNL and the Mainland US. |
Quoting KL808 (Reply 9): I believe the market is not that big. They consider SAN and LAX as one. |
Quoting Laxintl (Reply 12): However if PAL would venture out looking for a new US city, I would hope they would consider Illinois, New York/New Jersey or even Texas whom all have large Filipino communities. |
Quoting COSPN (Reply 13): Flights from Manila to the West Coast are nonstop because they have tail winds. |

Quoting COSPN (Reply 13): GUAM to be new PAL Fuel stop.... |
Quoting KL808 (Reply 14): Its not just tail wind, its also the lack of Balikbayan boxes. LOL. |
Quoting PanAm747 (Reply 5): Considering that LAX-MNL flights stop in HNL, the infrastructure is already there for a SAN-HNL-MNL flight. Is aircraft availability holding it back? |
Quoting AirlineAddict (Reply 15): there's more competition than just NW now for a one-stop to MNL |
Quoting Centrair (Reply 17): PR doesn't connect as well to the U.S. Domestic market, only has west coast service and she didn't like the schedule. |
Quoting Centrair (Reply 17): Does PR have inline ticketing to the U.S. domestic market? If so, what airline? |
Quoting Coronado990 (Reply 11): Oh yeah, I forgot...we are a suburb of L.A. |
Quoting AirlineAddict (Reply 18): Adding a MNL - ORD flight would definitely help with passengers from the midwest and south (connecting with AA). |
Quoting KL808 (Reply 19): How come RUY didnt work? IIRC there are alot of filipinos and south east asians in the whole gulf region? The planes where flying in and out full but yields was very poor. |
Quoting MasseyBrown (Reply 24): Now you know how Philadelphia feels. |
Quoting Abrelosojos (Reply 20): Can I just say how happy I am with the GUM stop? I hated waking up soon after falling asleep as we stopped @ HNL. |
Quoting Centrair (Reply 17): She said that simply, PR doesn't connect as well to the U.S. Domestic market, only has west coast service and she didn't like the schedule. |
Quoting Jacobin777 (Reply 25): ORD has a large Philipino community, I'm surprised they PR isn't serving ORD yet..maybe they have it on their radar..... |
