Nice webpage - very good description of the standard and amenities on the flights - I use BC to compare both prices and cabin quality and book my flights.
Have used bussinessclass.com for half a year already and I am very happy, it works out perfect and customer support is also very good. There are some other sites who uses the same name, but they are not as good as this one which I would say is the original and most trustworthy.
Businessclass.com always have the best hotel and flight deals. Airlines and hotels are reviewed to offer you the best experience.

When to go: Manila climate
Manila (MNL) stays hot year‑round at roughly 27.0–30.5°C (80.6–86.9°F); pack light clothing and hydrate on arrival.
Wet season runs May–November with rain peaking around 450 mm in August; schedule morning arrivals and leave buffer time for weather‑related delays.
Dry months January–April see just 15–30 mm of rain and slightly cooler nights; plan outdoor day trips and island excursions then for the best odds of clear skies.
Typhoon risk is higher August–October when monthly rain reaches 300–450 mm; choose flexible tickets or add travel insurance during this period.
Heat is most intense in April–May at 30.0–30.5°C (86.0–86.9°F); pick hotels with strong air‑conditioning and consider lounge access for mid‑day breaks.
When to book:
Optimal booking window
For LAX–MNL, the sweet spot sits about 60–75 days out where the index dips to 86–87, roughly 13–14% below last‑minute; set alerts and plan to buy in that band.
At 150 days the index is 96—only 4% below day‑1—so waiting until roughly two months out can save another ~10 points if your dates are flexible.
After D‑30, fares harden from 94 at D‑30 to 99 by D‑14 and 100 at departure; try to ticket before the 30‑day mark to avoid the late climb.
BusinessClass.com community flyers often finalize 7–9 weeks ahead to balance price and seat choice; aim for that timing for better availability.
For December trips, shift the purchase earlier to 75–90 days because inventory tightens quickly; move faster if leaving on the last two weekends before Christmas.
Price seasonality:
Cheapest months to fly
On Los Angeles (LAX) to Manila (MNL), December is the most expensive at 123—about 23% above the annual average—so avoid departures in the Dec 10–30 window if you can shift dates.
Summer demand lifts Jun–Aug to an average index of 108.7, roughly 19% higher than the Sep–Oct shoulder at 91.0; moving travel to late September can trim costs meaningfully.
January falls to 90, around 27% cheaper than December, making post‑holiday returns a smart play if your schedule allows.
The best‑value months are Feb, Oct, and Jan at 88–90; target these periods for discretionary or non‑urgent trips.
BusinessClass.com community members report Holy Week spikes; with Mar–Apr at 95–102, lock in seats 10–12 weeks early if traveling then.
Tips for a seamless journey
- Select a true window in a 1-2-1 layout when offered on this long-haul; these seats shield you from aisle traffic and help with rest.
- Confirm your departure terminal and lounge location at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) after ticketing; carriers use different terminals and that affects walking time and priority lane access.
- Verify your arrival terminal at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) if you are connecting; inter-terminal transfers can require exiting security, so add buffer above the legal connection time.
- Preselect your main meal if your carrier supports it; locking your choice early helps you eat on your schedule and sleep sooner on Los Angeles to Manila.
- Ask whether priority security and immigration lanes are included at both airports; access varies by carrier and terminal and can reduce queue times during peak departures.
- Check Wi‑Fi availability and any pre-boarding purchase option for your specific aircraft; buying before takeoff can be more reliable on transpacific sectors where coverage and pricing vary by carrier.
- Choose seats away from galleys and lavatories if you plan to sleep; noise and foot traffic are higher at door rows on many wide-bodies used between Los Angeles and Manila.
- If traveling with an infant, request a bassinet position when you book; bassinet rows are limited on this route and typically assigned by carrier policy.
- If your itinerary includes a separate onward ticket beyond Manila, confirm whether bags can be through-checked at Los Angeles; some combinations require reclaiming and rechecking in Manila, which adds time.
- Use our concierge for changes or disruptions: your BusinessClass.com WhatsApp booking alerts are already active on this reservation and deliver gate and schedule updates at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL), and you can also reach our live support quickly by phone for personalized help.
