Cebu-Mactan Airport Now Collects Terminal Fees When Booking Airline Tickets

Starting today March 1, Mactan-Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA) will start collecting terminal fees when booking airline tickets. The terminal fee in Mactan-Cebu International Airport is 200 Pesos.

The move is part of the on-going effort to improve customer experience in local airports in the country. Last August 2012, Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) has begun implementing the same scheme on passengers using the Terminal 1, 2 and 3. The results show improved passenger flow, saving time usually spent lining up in terminal fee booths

Last 2010, MCIA handled over 5.7 Million passengers.

Plans to Expand Mactan-Cebu International Airport

Part of government program to modernize the country's infrastructure is to construct a new world-class international airport to expand the second busiest airport in the country. Major conglomerates in the country such as Ayala Corporation, San Miguel Corporation, JG Summit, Metro Pacific Investment Corporation, and Aboitiz Equity Ventures have expressed interest to bid in the ambitious project.

The pre-qualification process has already started. The winning bidder will be responsible for operation and maintenance of the new terminal as well as the old one for a period of 20 years.

How Much Does a MRI Scan Costs in the Philippines?

My dad recently needs to have a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan for his prostate problem. So I made a little research on how much does it cost to have one. Well, turns out, it depends on many factors such as which part of the body is to be scanned. There's also this technique called "MRI with contrast" wherein the patient will be injected with a chemical to make the scan clearer. For your information this technique of adding contrast is know as Gadolinium Contrast Medium . It adds cost to the procedure but with more clarity, the more you can trust the diagnosis. MRI Machine KasugaHuang , CC BY-SA 3.0 , Link So, in my father's case, we had a Prostate MRI and I assume it's without contrast since he was never injected with the "contrast" chemicals. We got it in i-Scan Healthcare Inc here in Quezon City. The cost is 13000 Pesos . Please take not that the amount was just for the scan and the result will be read by a separate professional.

4 Steps to Replace Stolen or Lost Passbook

My passbook (inside my bag) was recently stolen inside a local grocery store and I would like to share the steps I took in order to secure my account and get a new passbook. The steps outlined here is for a BPI savings account but generally the procedure will be very similar to other banks in the Philippines. 1. Call the Bank to Secure Your Account The first and the most crucial step you need to immediately do is to contact your bank either through phone or personally reporting it to the branch where you opened the account. This will ensure that no funds will get out. The bank will lock the account immediately. The big banks have 24/7 hotlines. For BPI, it's 89-100. You have to do this step ASAP after discovering the lost. 2. Go to the Branch to Ask for Replacement of Passbook This can be a simple replacement of the lost passbook but it can also mean closing the entire account and opening a new one for security purposes.

Resigning? SSS Will Deduct Your Loan Balance from Your Last Pay

The purpose of this article is to inform the public about this policy of the Social Security System (SSS), the government-owned insurance company for those employed in the private sector. I just learned about this a few months ago when my company announced a workforce reduction program. Among the sad discussions is about this policy of SSS regarding loans in cases of resignation or retrenchment. Section G-2 of the SSS Loan Terms and Conditions (at the back of the loan application form) explicitly says the following: "The employer shall deduct the total balance of the loan from any benefit/s due to the employee and shall remit the same in full to SSS, in case the member-borrower is separated voluntarily (e.g., retirement or resignation) or involuntarily (e.g., termination of employment or cessation of operations of the company)." In other words, y ou will be required to pay the rest of your loan (including the interest) when you change employer or employment statu
