Philippine Airlines reviews and complaints
Recent traveler stories about Philippine Airlines flights, connections, baggage, schedule changes, and customer service.
Miles did not post after repeated requests
The miles from Philippine Airlines PR636 to London Heathrow never posted. I submitted the boarding pass, ticket number, and receipt twice. The reply kept saying the trip was not eligible, but no one explained why. Loyalty programs should not make customers chase basic credit.
Security document check was organized
For an international departure from Miami on Dec 25, 2026, Philippine Airlines had a separate document check before bag drop. The line looked long but moved steadily, and agents were clear about passports, visas, and onward tickets. I appreciated the organization.
Maintenance delay was explained poorly
I do not blame Philippine Airlines for checking a maintenance item on PR710. Safety comes first. What bothered me was the lack of updates: first ten minutes, then another twenty, then silence. Passengers can handle delays better when someone explains the plan honestly.
Arrival team helped after a medical scare
A passenger near us felt faint before landing on Philippine Airlines PR747. The crew asked for medical help, kept the aisle clear, and arranged for staff to meet the aircraft at Paris Charles de Gaulle. It was handled respectfully without creating panic in the cabin.
A gate agent saved the connection
I was already stressed when the inbound aircraft reached Los Angeles late on Sep 5, 2026. Renee at the gate checked the Philippine Airlines app, moved me to an earlier boarding lane for PR784, and called ahead so the crew knew I was coming. I made the Mexico City connection with only a few minutes to spare. It was the kind of calm help that changes the whole trip.
Baggage updates stopped after the first claim
My suitcase did not arrive at Doha Hamad on Dec 4, 2026. The first agent filed claim PR-8068 and sounded confident, but after that the online tracker barely changed. I called twice, got two different answers, and bought basic clothes without knowing what would be reimbursed. The bag eventually appeared, but the silence was more frustrating than the delay itself.
Refund request kept getting closed
I cancelled within the permitted window and uploaded the receipts for Philippine Airlines PR858. The refund case showed as closed even though the $210 credit never posted. Each chat agent told me to wait another billing cycle. I do not mind a process, but I do mind starting from zero every time I contact support.
Boarding group treatment felt unnecessary
At Chicago O'Hare on Jun 9, 2026, our boarding group 8 was called and then held to the side while several later passengers were allowed through. No one explained the change. The flight was fine once we sat down, but the tone at the door made the start of the trip feel disorganized and dismissive.
Family seats were split after payment
We paid to keep our family together on Philippine Airlines PR932 from HND to LHR. At check-in, two of the 2 children were assigned several rows away. The airport team fixed one seat but not all of them, so another passenger had to trade. Families should not have to negotiate at the cabin door after paying for seats.
Clean cabin and a crew that noticed details
The cabin on Philippine Airlines PR969 was clean, and the crew noticed small things without being asked. On Dec 4, 2026, a passenger near me was nervous during turbulence, and a flight attendant checked back twice with water and a quiet update. Nothing dramatic happened, which is exactly why the trip felt professional.
Could not reach anyone during a schedule change
Philippine Airlines changed my departure from New York JFK by several hours. The email said I could choose alternatives online, but every option ended with an error. I waited 91 minutes on the phone and then the call dropped. By the time I reached an agent, the better connection was gone.
Wheelchair assistance was handled with care
My mother needed wheelchair assistance for Philippine Airlines PR153. At Terminal 4, the escort arrived before boarding, stayed with us through security, and made sure the destination team at Paris Charles de Gaulle knew where to meet her. It made a difficult travel day feel manageable.
Seat fee was charged twice
I selected a standard aisle seat for Philippine Airlines PR190 and saw two separate $84 charges on my card. The website showed only one seat purchase, so I had to send bank screenshots to prove the duplicate billing. The duplicate was corrected, but only after three messages.
App boarding pass disappeared at security
The mobile boarding pass for Philippine Airlines PR227 loaded fine at home, then disappeared at Madrid Barajas security on Dec 25, 2026. The kiosk printed a new one, but I had to leave the line and start over. The staff helped, but the app made a simple trip more stressful than it needed to be.
