| | Philippine Airlines Business Class, Up to 9 Seats | Recently, Philippine Airlines started allowing award seats to be booked with Qatar Avios. That gives us a much needed option for flights across the Pacific as award space continues to be tough. | While it’s not the cheapest business class award to Asia, you can often find availability and Avios are among the easiest points to earn. Plus, this is a great one to keep in your back pocket for the next 30% transfer bonus to an Avios program. | While the Philippines is a great place to visit, Manila could also serve as a great jumping off point to destinations such as Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, and more! | Now, let’s get into it.
Let me know if you book! |

| Flight Experience | While the crew have reputation for being friendly and helpful, the catering isn’t consistent. That means the cabin layout and seat will be even more important for your overall experience. While you can’t count on many flights, only the cabins arranged in a 1-2-1 layout will provide direct aisle access and decent privacy for everyone. | | You can use Google Flights to confirm if the aircraft operating a flight will have lie-flats. | | How To Search | Search with Qatar Airways: | Log into your account Enter your origin/destination Select your travel date(s) Select one way only Select number of people and class of service Select Book Using Avios Run search
