As everyone knows by now the 20th SIGA (SSEAYP International General Assembly) will be held in Cebu, Philippines from 1-4th May 2008. The price for the SIGA should be about USD195 although that's not confirmed yet. The price includes 3 nights accomodation at a 5-star hotel, meals and conference fees.I've come up with some suggestions for minimum travel costs to Cebu from Brunei. The costs displayed is only an estimated cost and might change depending on availability and are available online if you book FAST! Email me if you need help.
Via Singapore.
1) Wednesday 30th April 2008 BWN-SIN BI423 1800hrs-2000hrs
Thursday 1st May 2008 SIN-CEB 5J548 0025hrs-0405hrs
Monday 5th May 2008 CEB-SIN 5J547 1940hrs-1125hrs
Tuesday 6th May 2008 SIN-CEB BI422 1055hrs-1300hrs
Total Price will be roughly BND640. But you have to stay overnight in Singapore on the way back and also stay in Cebu an extra night.
2) If you don't want to fly budget through Singapore, you can take Silkair but this is significantly more expensive. And you will also have to stay overnight in Singapore on the way there and on the way back if you plan to take Singapore Airlines to Singapore. Althernatively you can buy a separate ticket to Singapore from Brunei. And then buy a separate Silkair ticket from Singapore to Cebu if you don't want to stopover in Singapore. This will really increase your total price. Ask me if you have any questions.
Via Bangkok
1) Thursday 1st May 2008 BWN-BKK BI515 1420hrs-1610hrs
Thursday 1st May 2008 BKK- CEB 5J927 2310hrs - 0330hrs

Monday 5th May 2008 BKK-BWN BI516 1700-2050hrs
Total Price will be roughly BND630 and you have to arrange for a one night stay in Bangkok on the way back.
Via Manila
Wednesday 30th April 2008 BI687 BWN-MNL 2235-0035hrs
Thursday 1st May 2008 MNL-CEB - multiple flights to Cebu
Sunday 4th may 2008 CEB-MNL - multiple flights to Manila
Monday 5th May 2008 BI688 MNL-BWN - 0705-0905hrs(
BWN-MNL-BWN already about BND500+ so its a pricey option and you definitely have to stay overnight in Manila on the way there and on the way back. Ticket MNL-CEB-MNL are about BND150
via KK and Manila through Clarks
You can take the ferry to KK (BKI) and then take Air Asia flight to Manila Clarks (CRK), which is 3 hours by bus from the Main airport (MNL).
Thursday 1st May 2008 BKI-CRK AK502 1420-1620hrs
Then bus to MNL for 3 hours
Thursday 1st May 2008 MNL-CEB 5J573 2030-2145hrs

Then bus to CRK for 3 hours
Sunday 4th May 2008 CRK-BKI AK503 1645-1845
(Please note that although this option is cheap, but it will be risky just incase your Air Asia flight is delayed. Also there can be bad traffic between CRK and MNL.BKI-CRK-BKI roughly BND200. MNL-CEB-MNL roughly BND150)
(You can also take the plane to BKI from BWN which will cost BND153 if booked online.Thursday 1st May 2008 BWN-BKI BI821 0805-0845hrsSunday 4th May 2008 BKI-BWN BI826 2300-2340hrs)

Sunday 4th May 2008 BKI-BWN BI826 2300-2340hrs
This is an easy option for those who don't want to stay overnight too. You can buy the BWN-BKI-BWN ticket on RBA website for BND153 and BKI-CEB-BKI ticket for about BND550.
