Which side of the plane to sit from Mactan Cebu International Airport (Cebu) to General Santos International Airport (Romblon)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of Mindanao's rugged interior, featuring the massive Kitanglad mountain range and the iconic symmetrical silhouette of Mount Matutum during the final descent.
Siquijor Island
The mystical 'Island of Fire' surrounded by turquoise waters, visible shortly after departing Cebu.
Mount Kitanglad
The towering peaks of one of the highest mountain ranges in the Philippines, located in Bukidnon.
Bukidnon Plateaus
A vast green checkerboard of pineapple and banana plantations stretching across the central highlands.
Mount Matutum
The most dramatic landmark of the trip, a symmetrical stratovolcano that signals your arrival in General Santos.
Seat F is the prime spot for this route. For the clearest views of the Bukidnon mountain ranges, book an early morning flight (before 9:00 AM) to avoid the typical tropical cloud buildup. Keep your camera ready about 15-20 minutes before landing for the most spectacular close-up views of Mount Matutum's lush slopes.
Panglao Island
Clear views of the white sand beaches and coral reefs of Bohol's premier tourist destination.
Camiguin Island
A stunning volcanic island appearing in the Mindanao Sea, featuring the peaks of Mount Hibok-Hibok.
Agusan River
The winding path of one of the Philippines' longest rivers as it cuts through the Mindanao landscape.
Butuan City
An aerial overview of the historical regional hub in northern Mindanao during the transition to the interior.
Choose the left side (Seat A) if you enjoy island-hopping aesthetics. This side is best during late afternoon flights as it stays in the shade, avoiding the harsh glare of the setting sun over the Sulu Sea. Look out early in the flight for the Bohol Strait's deep blue contrast against the reef shallows.
