caught a taxi who said that at that time, we could have made it to T2/T3 in 5-10 minutes tops.
BUT the backup 3:15 flight was automatically-cancelled anyway. cebu couldnt reach me to verify the foreign billing address.
booked a stay near the mall of asia where i spent my time. atleast it bought some peace of mind
all was okay on the way in, right?
not to anyone surprise - especially those who cautioned me against it - the way out was a disaster.
USU-MNL ran late. missed connex to KUL. that wasnt final destination, so missed a bunch of subsequent flights as well. all on separate res (dont ask).
subsequent long haul was paid J. salvaged some credit out of it for rebook. nabbed a next day departure in LH F on rewards. thank the mile gods
