Airlines that operate flights from Australia to Manila or Clark, Philippines include Philippine Airlines, Singapore Airlines (Scoot), Cebu Pacific, Cathay Pacific and Malaysia Airlines. These airlines may offer direct flights or flights with layovers.

Business attire in the Philippines is typically formal or business casual. Men often wear suits or dress shirts and trousers, while women wear dresses, skirts, or pantsuits. Light and comfortable clothing suitable for tropical weather is recommended for other conference activities.

Yes, you can typically extend your stay for personal travel. Ensure to check visa validity and any additional travel requirements beyond the conference dates.

Yes, English is one of the official languages of the Philippines and widely spoken, especially in business, government, and education sectors. Most Filipinos are proficient in English, making communication easy for English-speaking travelers.

The Philippines operates on Philippine Time (PHT), which is 8 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+8). The country does not observe daylight saving time, so the timezone offset remains consistent throughout the year. When planning interactions with participants or events in the Philippines from Australia, please adjust for the 2–3-hour time difference depending on whether it’s AEST or AEDT in Australia.

The Philippines has a tropical climate with two main seasons:

  • Dry Season (November to April): Hot and dry weather, ideal for tourism.
  • Wet Season (May to October): Cool afternoon rain showers from June to September.

The official currency used in the Philippines is the Philippine Peso (PHP). It is widely accepted at conference venues, hotels, restaurants, and other establishments throughout the country. When traveling from Australia, you can exchange currency at banks, exchange counters, or ATMs upon arrival for convenience. Please note that exchange rates may vary, so it’s advisable to check current rates before exchanging money.

The official languages of the Philippines are Filipino (based on Tagalog) and English. Filipino is widely spoken as a second language by most of the population, while English is used in business, government, and education.

Australian passport holders who are visiting the Philippines for tourism or leisure purposes can stay in the country for up to 30 days without needing to obtain a visa in advance. This visa-free entry privilege allows Australian citizens to enter the Philippines and enjoy their stay for tourism-related activities without the need for a visa, if the duration of stay does not exceed 30 days.

It’s always a good idea to double-check with the nearest Philippine embassy or consulate or their official website closer to your travel date to ensure there have been no recent changes in visa policies.

 

Your phone should generally work in the Philippines if it supports GSM networks, which are widely used there. Before traveling, ensure your phone is unlocked so you can use it with international SIM cards. It’s advisable to check with your carrier about international roaming rates and options for using your phone abroad.

 

Alternatively, purchasing a local SIM card upon arrival in the Philippines can often provide more cost-effective options for data and local calls. In terms of coverage, major cities and tourist areas typically have good network coverage, though it may vary in more remote areas. If your phone supports dual SIM capability, consider using both your personal SIM and a local Philippine SIM simultaneously for flexibility in making calls and accessing data during your business conference.

 

It’s important to prioritize safety, particularly when connecting to public WiFi networks. Avoid accessing sensitive information such as online banking or entering passwords on unsecured networks. Consider using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to encrypt your internet connection and protect your data from potential hackers. Always verify the legitimacy of WiFi networks you connect to.

Traveling to the Philippines can generally be safe with proper precautions. It’s advisable to stay vigilant, particularly in unfamiliar surroundings. Stick to well-populated and well-lit areas, especially at night, and be mindful of your belongings.

Use trusted transportation services like registered taxis or reputable rideshare apps to avoid risks associated with unmarked vehicles, especially at airports or bus terminals. Stay informed about local weather conditions.

By staying aware and taking necessary precautions, you can have a safe and enjoyable travel experience in the Philippines.

Yes, you may need a power adaptor for your devices in the Philippines. The country uses 220V voltage and Type A and Type B plugs, so if your devices have different plugs (like Type C or Type I), you’ll need an adaptor to fit local sockets. It’s wise to check your device plugs before traveling and bring adaptors or converters as necessary for charging your devices.

This will include details on session timings, breaks, and opportunities for networking or personal activities.
