3. protected the requirements of your destination’s local government.

Aside from the common requirements like flight booking, some local government units (LGUs) need you to submit or present additional documents. The list varies depending on the destination. Some cities or provinces have much more requirements than others. It is essential that you’re familiar with these.

You can check PAL’s compilation of requirements here: list of travel Requirements.

On that page, scroll down to the bottom and you’ll find a menu. Click those that apply to you and they’ll reveal a list of requirements per destination and passenger classification.

Some LGUs require passengers to show negative test results before departure. buddy has partnered with some certified testing centers. You can also get a PAL-exclusive discount on testing fees and get a queueing priority if you choose a partner testing center. See the full list here!

That said, on top of this, we still strongly encourage you to call your destination’s local government unit to be sure that you have the updated list of requirements. These policies change rapidly and it’s always best to get the information directly from those who make the rules.

4. follow safety guidelines at the airport.

To guarantee safety, the Civil Aeronautic Board and the Inter-Agency task force on emerging infectious diseases (IATF-EID) have set guidelines for domestic passenger air transportation operations that both airline staff and passengers should strictly observe at the airport and on board the plane.

Here are some of the rules:

Wear a face mask whatsoever times. This is mandatory.

Wear a face shield. effective 15 August 2020, this has been mandatory. The face shield should be clear and with a snug fit, covering the entire face.

Observe physical and social distancing. reduce contact whatsoever times, even uponcheck in and boarding, during the flight, and upon deplaning and claiming of baggage.

The aircraft and airport facilities are regularly sanitized and disinfected.

PAL may refuse to accept passengers who fail to meet the requirements.
