Philippine Airlines is the WORST airline ever! I've been flying for over 30 years and have never been treated as poorly as with PAL. If you value customer service, respect, and your time you will NOT fly with PAL.

Philippine Airlines review by Ralph
Canceled my flight and did not refund my funds, despite repeated request. I had to file a complaint with the FAA to get them to respond and finally refund most of my money. When I booked with them later on a flight from Honolulu to Manila, they forced everyone on the flight at the last minute to buy flight insurance, which is illegal. Of course it was a disaster and the flight was delayed as passengers were standing around on their phones trying to find a carrier and show proof…. They stop this requirement after so many complaints but never offered an apology or refund.

I travelled with a stroke patient plus my 2 yr old daughter but had a difficult time at check in counter. I experienced a power tripping supervisor. Unbelievable. I have raised my complaint to PAL. There is no inflight entertainment at all, a pain travelling during the day. Not booking this airline again.

Sadly, they covid cancelled May 2020 flights UK to Manila and internal. Been trying since then to get the refund they agree we are entitled to. All we actually get is lies and zero contact. Have now had to sue them, we shall see what happens.

A highly frustrating experience caused by Philippine Airlines being irresponsible on two separate occasions. First, by changing my 2 hour layover to a 12 hour overnight one without offering any compensation (as required by EU law), nor accommodation. Then, by not refunding me on time for this cancelled flight. It is now 40 days after the cancelled flight and no money to be seen. No responses to emails, calls are a waste of time. Have called them for hours now. They put you on hold, pass you from person to person, and when they are asked for proof that the payment has gone through, they cut the line.

Constantly striving to improve service on time performance remains an issue and aircraft are basic and uncomfortable.

Philippine Airlines review by Giovanni
I prepaid my extra luggage online and printed my booking reference where it stated how much extra luggage allowance I have. At the checkin counter in Manila they told me they have no record of my extra luggage. When I showed them my receipt I was advised I need the "real" receipt apparently sent by email. Nobody could tell me why my booking reference included the extra luggage. No arguing or discussion with supervisor and on-site manager helped. Because I had not prepaid according to them the double-rate applied. Absolutely abysmal! Sheer highway robbery! What an airline and what management. I will avoid these guys in future! So for ripping me off an extra 3,000 Peso they lost much more in future business. PAL is a disgrace for the Philippines and its wonderful people. What a welcome! I filed a complaint with the airline and they assured me I will get a response. That was 2 months ago.

Philippine Airlines review by Allan
Philippne Airlines flight on PR 113 from Los Angeles California to Manila on October 17th, 2018. Inflight food average 4/10. Cabin crew service is poor as they don't attend passengers needs such as giving out water after meal service. Passengers left dehydrated for a 15 hour straight flight and no mi flight snacks served as indicated on their inflight menu. Economy class passengers received poor service compared to thier Business Class. Cabin crews are nowhere to found after every meal service. Inflight Entertainment is 2/10 and the same movies I've watched 1 year ago. Wifi on board not working on their B777-300er.
