I seriously doubt that they can make you miss your plane for nothing
Yep, i dont put my guards down everytime i entered any airport in the philippines, i look at anyone in uniforms in the airport as someone who will do everything to tear me apart. haha. my friend was offloaded because the immigration officer dismissed her work pass in singapore as "expired" and the officer wont listen on my friend's explanation. the date format in singapore is dd/mm/yyyy while it's mm/dd/yyyy in ph. here's how it happened: my friend's travel date was 10 July 2017, her work pass expiry was 04/12/2017 (that reads 4 December 2017 in singapore, 6 more months validity). The immigration officer insisted her work pass expired in April 12, 2017 and she was offloaded from the flight. My friend cant call her employer in Singapore to request for relevant docs since it was like 11pm already. I was still laughing when she called me that night, and reminded her, your birthday is printed at the back.. show them. her birthday was printed 20/12/1980. She then showed and asked the officer, what is the 20th month?! too late, she still wasn't allowed to board the flight anymore as the plane was taxiing by the tarmac already. another officer took over the booth and she was asked to buy new ticket for $300+ and the immigration officer who offloaded her was nowhere to be found.
that's why there is no overbooked flights in ph.. haha
