After 12 days in the Philippines, I came back and shared some experience with my sisters. It takes 5 hours to fly directly from Caticlan, RW706 Royal Philippine Airlines (luggage limit per person is 15kg). To be honest, I didn't have a good experience with this flight. The plane was very small and the seats were very narrow. The flight attendants didn't let me feel any service except collecting garbage. I watched the passengers move their luggage without moving. I didn't drink a sip of water during the 5-hour Trip, and the air conditioning was very, very, very hot (I later heard that this so-called direct flight was a charter flight). Of course, the biggest advantage is that you don't have to toss directly.
Before departure, remember to fill in eTrave online in advance. You can fill it in 72 hours before departure. After filling it out, take a screenshot and save the QR code. Someone will check it when you arrive at the airport in Boracay. After arriving in Boracay, you need to take a car to the pier and then take a speedboat to the island. It is recommended that you book a hotel with airport pick-up service in advance if you bring children. Just look for the hotel logo after leaving the airport, which will be much more convenient.
We booked The Lind Boracay, which provides free airport pick-up and escorts to the hotel for check-in. In addition to The Lind, we also experienced Scarlet Resort & Spa Boracay on Boracay. The two hotels are not far from each other. You can get there by tuk-tuk. Generally speaking, both hotels are OK, but I personally think that The Lind is more cost-effective. It is very convenient to go downstairs to the swimming pool, restaurant and beach. The children also said that they prefer the first hotel. Scarlet is a big hotel that you have to go around everywhere to get dizzy. The environment is quite good, but although Scarlet has a private beach, the sand is not as fine as that of The Lind. It is very prickly when there are few people... Scarlet has a private beach, so when leaving the island, you can directly take a speedboat to the airport at the hotel's pier. This is very good, but the fee is a bit expensive. It is still more convenient if there are many people.
I won't introduce too much about food, after all, everyone has different tastes. The impression left by the Philippines is that there are a lot of fried chickens, and the barbecues are generally black, haha. There are many Koreans on the island and a lot of Korean food. When it comes to food, it is really incomparable to Chinese food. The sunset in Boracay is really beautiful, no matter how you take pictures, it is beautiful, you must not miss it.
If you are unwell, you can find a Chinese supermarket in Dmall, which sells some common Chinese medicines. Of course, if you can speak English, there are many medicines in Watsons, especially the local cough medicine, which is said to be good. There are many people who braid small braids in Dmall. Note that the braids are charged by Angen, haha, you can bargain; including if you want to play some sea projects, you must bargain, the local prices will be slightly cheaper than Taobao, just bargain
