Having a problem.
I've already booked a ticket from Incheon to Manila's Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
Trying to book a ticket from there to Caticlan (Boracay) and am running into a wall.
Apparently all of the carriers that service Caticlan are based out of Diosdado Macapagal International Airport, and I'm getting some conflicting information about how long it will take to get from one place to the other.
One source says over 3 hours.
Has anyone done it? |

If you are going to Boracay, why are you trying to fly out of Clark?
Since you are flying into NIAA you need to book from Manila (NOT Clark) going to Boracay.
SeaAir ( http://www.flyseair.com/shortcuts/timetable01.php ) flies multiple daily flights from the Manila domestic terminal to Boracay.
The flights you want are the top of the chart (mnl-mph on the left and return on the right side of the chart)
You need about 2 hours BETWEEN your flight to Manila and your flight out to Caticlan. It takes about 30 minutes by car from the International terminal to the Domestic terminal at the Manila airport.
Do NOT book a flight out of Clark ( Diosdado Macapagal International Airport). |

SeaAir was what I took. Seemed to be the cheapest at the time. They have flights every 30 minutes or so, or someone does, so no biggie. The taxi between the two airports will rip you off, don't worry, regardless of the stated price. It's a good introduction to the Philippines! Tipping is like 5%, if that, but they'll get more out of you, I promise. |

Um aren't the two airports actually just on the other side of the runways?
I seem to remember that about my trip to Boracay (actually, I think I took SeaAir too). |

Shouldn't this be in the travel forum?
