S1E25 - What Really Happens at the Airport Departures for First-Time OFWs

In this episode, we walk first-time Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) through what really happens at the airport departure area — from check-in to boarding. We explain each step: presenting your OEC (Overseas Employment Certificate), clearing immigration, baggage checks, and dealing with possible offloading. Many first-timers feel nervous or overwhelmed, so we share tips on staying calm, dressing appropriately, and preparing documents like contracts, visas, and IDs. We also highlight red flags that immigration officers watch for and how to handle questions confidently. This episode is your practical, reassuring guide to making your first airport departure smooth, legal, and stress-free.
