Some of us go to the Philippines to dive - or some just take more stuff, short of balikbayan* boxes

, and want to take more stuff.
First, check the baggage and sports allowances
here.
One way is to purchase a Philippine Airlines mabuhay miles SportsPlus card. This provides an extra 20 kg / 44 lb sports gear allowance. The fee varies from USD $70 to $210
per year. See
https://www.mabuhaymiles.com/sportsp...s/benefits.jsp. You can buy these at most check-in counters - but if you are a diver, some dive resorts will get these in advance, especially if they purchase local air for you. (The card and account will have your mabuhay miles account number.)
Just FYI, the baggage tracing information appears in minuscule letters:
