I've seen in another forum that tickets for children can be obtained with a discount when you go to PTA. Does this policy still hold true?

 

[mujahko]

visa and copr must be presended during pdos registration

I'm referring to the travel tax. Anyway, I googled around and found this:

Those who can avail of travel exemption/reduced rate includes:

C. Section 2-A of PD 1183, as amended, states that the following are entitled to a standard reduced travel tax rate:

Minors from 2 to 12 years

In case where original passport cannot be presented, original Birth Certificate and photocopy of ID page of passport.

Yes, that policy is still valid. I inquired from Cathay Pacific and was advised to get the certificate for my baby para maexempt sa travel tax. Kaya lang nasa Kalaw yata ang office ng PTA. Medyo malayo sa QC. Anywayze, sa halagang 200 pesos, maeexempt tayo sa 1620 pesos yatang travel tax.
