But remember Cathay has 5 flights each day to and from Manila so looking at arriving on one and departing on the next turnaround should have a high chance of success. In the morning CX907 arrives at about 9.30 and CX930 departs at 12.30 while in the late afternoon/evening CX919 arrives at 4.30 and CX902 departs at 8.15. And the comfortable lounge is now open.
This is a much better option and I have to say the CX staff at MNL are usually really helpful if you are in business or a DM card holder.
