A thought just came to me... anyone want to guess how long before Gort comes back in here and tells us we need to itemize what is being brought and shipped for the B4/B4a forms? My guess is June 14.

Oh, then in that case he will also tell us the airline felt bad for her missing her plane and upgraded her to Super-A-Plus-Prime First-Class while refunding half the price of the ticket.

Oh, and did he mention she has already been promoted to head of her department at the hospital?

Clicked on the PAL site and got a pop up message that says they are cancelling flights to and from Davao due to a Cebu Pacific Airlines flight overshooting the runway at Davao Airport.

To handle the passengers they are switching to wide body aircraft for its General Santos-Manila flights.

Apparently Davao will reopen tonight at 8pm (so presumably is has already reopened) and PAL flights will resume from there.

It was closed on Sunday June 2nd at 7pm. It affected 9 PAL flights due to the runway being obstructed.

F0000K. I just got home. That was the same rainstorm that flooded the house. We back right on to the airport.
