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.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United States to Palawan?

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.

Flight went very well. Cabin crew were all courteous and very helpful, always with smiles on their faces. Food was great. I always love heated nuts with wine. Flying business class with Philippine Airlines is always a pleasant experience.

Great food selection in lounge. Excellent bartender, friendly staff. Good service on the plane.

Check in process was excellent. Lounge needs improvement. Food not palatable and no good choices.

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 😃!!!!!

I was glad that the plane was not totally full.

The flight was fantastic and the crew was absolutely excellent, but the entertainment system on the B777 was not working. That's a long time to spend with no electronics. The crew offered I-Pads but I had brought my own. I am only pointing this out because this is the second flight on Philippines Air where the entertainment system was down. FJM

The checking in agent tried to give me a different seat. She tried to give me an economy seat even though I had already checked in with a seat assigned and paid an extra $300 for those seats. She also separated our seating assignment. Very unprofessional and seriously a bad example for an agent. She was rude when I showed her my receipts and she made us wait more than 15 minutes before we were able to get the right boarding passes and correct seats (seats that we paid for in advance)!!!

Terrible check in and food was like from fast food
