The reviewer flew Philippine Airlines flight PR104 on 9/19, traveling from Manila to San Francisco after an Osaka-Manila leg. The A350-1000 departure was scheduled for 11:15PM, with arrival listed at 9:10PM; the flight duration was 11 hours 55 minutes. The overall return ticket cost $1,746.63, but the reviewer used 116,442 Chase Ultimate Rewards points at 1.5 cents each to cover it.
The business-class cabin contains 42 Collins Aerospace Elevation seats across 11 rows in a 1-2-1 layout, with 44 inches of pitch, 21 inches of width and beds measuring 78 inches. The reviewer singled out the new cabin and food as strengths, but said Wi-Fi did not work and the crew lacked the attentiveness found on a prior flight. Manila’s lounge and airport experience were also criticized.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on InsideFlyer.
