Immigration/Passport check for foreigners went quickly even with a long queue (Filipinos were using their own e-gates). Collected our luggage then headed to the bus waiting area heading to Terminal 2. We were the last 5 passengers to arrive before the bus left for T2. Arrived at the PAL check-in counters around 7:20pm and at 7:30pm, we were already at the PAL Mabuhay Lounge waiting for our 8:35pm flight to Cebu. Very positive transfer experience even with separate tickets. Merry Christmas to all!!
If you landed at 6:45pm, you should consider yourself lucky that your bags popped out at baggage claim at 7:15pm, much less transiting to T2 by then.
