About The Philippines
The Philippines, officially known as the Republic of the Philippines, consists of more than 7,100 islands located in Southeast Asia. Surrounding countries include Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam and the U.S. territory of Guam.
Because the islands are surrounded by water, cool ocean breezes allow visitors to enjoy tropical, but humid temperatures year-round.
Non-stop flights to the Philippines are available from many major cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Vancouver, Tokyo, Shanghai, Seoul, London, Amsterdam, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and many more.
