Which side of the plane to sit from Mactan Cebu International Airport (Cebu) to Laguindingan Airport (Cagayan de Oro City)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for witnessing the iconic volcanic peaks of Camiguin Island and the scenic southern coastline of Bohol.
Mactan-Cebu Bridges
Aerial views of the CCLEX and older bridges connecting Mactan Island to Cebu City shortly after takeoff.
Bohol Southern Coast
Clear views of the white sand beaches and reef systems along the southern edge of Bohol Island.
Camiguin Island
The most significant highlight, featuring the prominent silhouette of Mount Hibok-Hibok rising from the sea.
Macajalar Bay
Deep blue waters and the approach towards the Misamis Oriental coastline before landing.
Secure an 'A' window seat for the best views. Morning flights (6:00 AM to 9:00 AM) are highly recommended to see Camiguin clearly before clouds form around the volcano peaks. This side also avoids direct sun glare during the short southward hop.
Cebu City Skyline
A sprawling view of the Metro Cebu urban area and its busy shipping ports upon departure.
Cebu Cordillera
The rugged, green mountain spine that runs through the center of Cebu Island.
Siquijor Island
On clear days, the 'Mystic Island' is visible in the distance across the Bohol Sea.
Laguindingan Coastline
The final descent offers views of the rural landscapes and shorelines of western Misamis Oriental.
Choose an 'F' seat for views of the Cebuano highlands. This side is preferable for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Sulu Sea, though the sun may be directly in your eyes during the mid-day period.
