NAIA Terminal 3 Pre-Departure Shops (2011) - Part 5 of 5

In this last part in our series on NAIA Terminal 3, we'll allow the photos to do much of the talking. Here are some of the shops available for your perusal if you happen to have more time than necessary prior to your flight, just before heading to your respective Gates.

The shop right across the last security check and xray is Victoria's Secret  (who would buy sexy lingerie at the airport, I wonder) and just beside it is Air Mall which now carries a Krispy Kreme counter.

Mixed Lifestyle is situated beside Le Boutique (selling bags, flip flops, caps), which is beside a coffee house - KR Express (Kopiroti). There is a Money Exchange Counter just beside Let's Chow Restaurant. Cinnabon is close by beside Mrs. Field's Cafe. Cafe France stands beside Red Ribbon which shares its space with GoNuts Donuts - at the center aisle of the hallway. Gate 116 is flanked by Expresamente and Mrs. Fields. Meanwhile, a Rajah Maynila stall stands beside Pondohan.While Pondohan sells a smorgasbord items from candies to cigarettes a la sari sari store, Rajah now offers affordable rice meals like beef pares at P89, luglug at P99. They have 2 long tables (no chair beside their stall), just across gate 117.

Update as of May 14, 2011: Chaikofi Restaurant Cafe is now open, flanked by Chipstead at each side. A National Bookstore branch is also open, found between KR Express and Island Souvenirs.

There's a new Crew Lounge right across the Citibank counter. At the vicinity of Gate 117, there's Muhlach's Ensaymada (a bread shop franchise owned by former child actor Nino Muhlach). Beside it is Fruitas (Fresh From Babot's Farm) if you're into fresh fruit shakes (P45 for a small glass).

A new EBG Convenience Shop across Gate 118 combines convenience store and fast food - rice toppings for P100. Also nearby - Hen Lin and Kape Manila which has comfy looking lounge seats. Gate 119 has Stop n Fly Cafe, which is a smoking joint. Stress Away Massage is a spa-inspired installation near Gate 120 which hosts flights of AirPhil Express. Rates: whole body massage 1 hour - P1000; half hour - P500. Chair massage (foot, leg and scalp) for 30 minutes at P500. Gate 120 is the hallway's last gate at the extreme end.

There are pay phone units near "Stop n Fly". These phone units accept credit cards (Visa, Mastercard and Amex), coins and PLDT call cards.

At the lower floor pre-departure area (gates 131 to 133), you will find Sioam Day Spa, Nescafe Point and Mrs. Fields Cookies.
