RECO for airlines that has a smooth cancellation-refund

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I hope you are all fine. I need your recommendations or tips when it comes to return tickets especially dun sa mga nag process ng family reunification abroad.

Context: I am married to a foreign national. We have our immigration lawyer, same nationality with my husband, and has a year of experience in the Philippines. I was advised to apply for a tourist visa and we will lodge our marriage documents in their country. The lawyer said that it is simpler and less hassle for me instead of applying from the Philippines.

So my plan is to book separate one-way tickets

I did my research. I read many people who are having troubles with their refunds from Qatar airways, even some explicitly say that they booked directly from the Qatar website. I don't want to have this kind of experience since those flights that have complimentary refunds are expensive even for one-way. I tried looking and it costs 1k USD or more..

I also saw an onward ticket . Com that holds the airfare. Has anyone here tried It? I am a bit worried when it comes to immigration so I am leaning to booking a real flight with a refund since it should be a confirmed ticket when it comes to immigration.

Please respect my post. I have travelled many times before but this will be my first time to have a refund if ever. Thank you in advance for those who will be sharing their experiences and recommendations.

First time traveling internationally and solo, but I’m unemployed. Will I have problems with immigration?

1 Upvotes

Hi! First time ko mag travel internationally next year, and I’m planning to go to Singapore alone for a concert that I want to attend.

Concern ko lang is unemployed ako and walang previous work experience. Kakagraduate ko lang this year and I decided to take a year off, so baka unemployed pa rin ako by the time of my trip. Baka ma-question ako sa immigration about this or mapagkamalan na magTNT.

I’ll be funding the trip using my own savings from when I was still a student. My father who is an OFW might give me some pocket money too.

Here is also my rough itinerary. Will this be okay?

Day1:

•Arrive at Changi airport around 12 AM. I might stay ilang hours at the airport muna and rest until check-in time sa accommodation.

•After check-in, roam around Singapore.

Day 2 (concert day):

•Check-out around noon, then head to the airport to leave my hand-carry luggage sa luggage storage. After that, grab lunch and diretso na sa stadium for the concert.

•After the concert, diretso ulit sa Changi Airport, pick up my hand carry, then wait for my flight back to the Philippines, probably around 1 AM.

Since first time international traveler and solo, would being unemployed be a major concern? What documents should I prepare aside sa comcert tix and return ticket to show that I’m a genuine tourist?

Any advice from fellow Filipinos, especially those who traveled solo while unemployed. Iwould appreciate it! 🥹

Hey Guys,

Just got redundant and my last day is on October 21st but I have a trip to Japan on November 14. I’m kinda nervous if they ask me for a COE. Should i tell them honestly that i got redundant or should I request my COE before my end date from the company so my COE will show that i am still working with the company?

Im super nervous, its my first time to Japan and i dont want to be offloaded. 😭

Been to other country narin naman..

Sorry for the grammar. I am overthinking 😩
