I should just stay at the airport?
Yaya, which airline are you taking? If you are taking PAL then you can stay at the airport outside. It might be a long hot wait, but you wont have to venture out.

You should have no problem then. Once you get your luggage, just take elevator or stairs to second floor and find a comfortable seat. If you had taken Cebu Pacific to Caticlan you would have needed to take a taxi to Cebu terminal.

Actually, ALL Cebu Pacific flights are via NAIA3 now (or so I was told).
That is also where their website says to check in.

Should I bother hitting a bar in Manila instead of waiting for my flight? Or will I get jacked?

I don't know about NAIA3 (where you should be landing) but the domestic terminal at NAIA2 is (or at least always was) CLOSED at night. You will sit outside in a semi-secured area (ticketed passengers only) until about 4am when it opens.

Then you can go through security and into the terminal building. There won't be any services at that time of the morning other than a vending cart outside.

So I guess the answer is no.

Do you value your life? Manila is nothing like Boracay. Stay at the airport. Not worth the risk really.

I guess I do value my life, and thanks for the tip. I'll spent four hours in the airport.
