Getting to Siargao

Please Note: Cebu Pacific Air are notorious for changing flight schedules regularly at short notice. Check the Cebu Pacific Air website for their latest flight schedule. Flight prices vary enormously and are generally much more expensive if purchased last minute. For the best deals book your flights well in advance. The direct flight to Siargao is operated using a small aircraft, so baggage allowance is limited to 15kg per person. You’ll be charged for baggage exceeding this amount. You can take a surfboard with you as check-in baggage, but it must be within your allowable luggage allowance to avoid excess baggage charges. Please contact us if you need assistance with flight information and bookings.
