    I did 20 years in the US Navy on multiple ships. Rode out high seas and rough weather with no seasickness. I get motion sickness on vehicles if I’m not driving… go figure. I drove my sister to NAIA T2 a week ago to fly down to Calbayog, Samar. No direct flights from Clark to there yet. I drive again in a couple of days to pick her up. Gets me out and I don’t mind the drive as it’s much easier with the Skyway.

The British Airways plane is a double decker Airbus A380, BA send aircraft to the Philippines for maintenance as it's cheaper there, it probably flew empty from somewhere like South Africa after a passenger flight in, and will do the same when it's ready to go back into service.....
