FAQs - booking Palawan flights

  • What’s the best way to travel to Busuanga Island?

    If Busuanga is your final destination in the Palawan province, you can reach the island via a connection with a domestic airline at Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB) in Cebu or at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) in Manila. But if you’re planning to stay for a few days on Palawan Island before exploring the rest of the archipelago, it’s best if you book a domestic Air Juan or AirSWIFT flight later to Busuanga.

  • Can I fly to Cuyo Island from Palawan Island?

    Yes, you can book a flight from Palawan to Cuyo, but keep in mind there is only one daily flight operated by one airline, Air Juan. The flight takes about 1h.

  • How do I travel from the airport to Puerto Princesa?

    If you haven’t arranged transportation with your accommodation, taking a tricycle or a taxi is the best way to reach the Puerto Princesa city center from the airport. Expect to pay approximately 50 PHP (about 0.96 USD) for a tricycle ride to the city center. Taxi fares start at about 40 PHP (roughly 0.77 USD), plus 18 PHP (about 0.35 USD) per mile.

  • Where do I fly into if I’m visiting El Nido?

    The closest airport to El Nido is the Puerto Princesa International Airport, which is about 143 mi away. From the airport to El Nido you can travel by van, rental car, or bus. The most affordable and convenient way is to take a van at the airport. Most of the time, the drivers will approach the passengers with offers to travel to El Nido, so you don’t have to look too hard for them. Keep in mind that a van ride from the airport to El Nido should take between 5 and 6 hours and cost around 600 PHP (11.55 USD) per person.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Palawan

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Palawan flight deals.
  • When searching for flights to Palawan, you’ll most likely choose the Puerto Princesa International Airport (PPS) as your final destination. But the Filipino province is also served by two other airports—Francisco B. Reyes Airport (USU) on Busuanga Island and Cuyo Airport (CYU) on Cuyo Island.
  • Most flights to Palawan from the United States require at least one layover, typically in the capital city of the Philippines, Manila. A nonstop flight from Manila to Busuanga takes about 1h 20m, and from Manila to Puerto Princesa on Palawan Island, approx. 1h 15m.
  • The Puerto Princesa Airport is not only the largest and the one with the most options of flights and airlines, but it’s also a hub for Philippines-based domestic airline Air Juan and low-cost carrier Philippines AirAsia.
  • Philippine Airlines operates many flights to Palawan from the US, with routes to both the Puerto Princesa and Busuanga airports.
  • You don’t need to apply for a visa before booking your flight to Palawan. American citizens are issued a visa on arrival, which is all you’ll need, as long as you’re not staying for more than 30 days. Please make sure your passport is valid and has enough blank space for an entry visa stamp.

Apart from a departure gate change, a good experience with professional, friendly staff.

I like the pleasantness of how courteous and friendly and helpful everyone is

It was never explained why the departure flight was canceled and delayed for 1.5 hours. It would have been nice to stick with the original itinerary.

Many movies do not have captions, which would have been helpful when you have to live with the flight engine noise.

Everything was fantastic!!!! I can’t wait to fly home 😃!!!!!

Plane are getting old, almost an hour delay due to technical reson , after all passenger aboard. Took 4 flight on business class this trip and all the planes had an issues. PAL need to improve their planes.

It’s sad how legacy airlines feel like budget airlines now. Cramped space Non reclining seats No inflight entertainment (need to connect via your own device) Saving grace is the crew. Truly nice and sincere service.

Short flight with limited entertainment wasn't that bad. Staff was friendly and plane was clean. Meal was good.

It was great! The flight was on time and had a smoother flight

Crew excellent calling me by name ! Only downside was no inflight WiFi
