Search flights from CEB to ILO
Mount Kanlaon
The highest peak in the Visayas and an active stratovolcano that dominates the horizon.
Negros Sugar Plains
The vast patchwork of green sugarcane fields that define the 'Sugarbowl of the Philippines.'
Bacolod City
A clear view of the 'City of Smiles' and its busy coastal infrastructure.
Panay Countryside
The peaceful rice paddies and agricultural lands of Santa Barbara during the landing phase.
The right side is the best for volcano enthusiasts. To see Mount Kanlaon clearly, book an early morning flight before clouds gather around the summit. This short 30-to-45-minute flight means you should stay alert immediately after the seatbelt sign turns off.

South Cebu Coastline
Scenic views of the rugged southwestern Cebu shores and hidden beach coves.
Tañon Strait
A glimpse into the deep blue waters of the protected seascape between Cebu and Negros.
Guimaras Island
Stunning aerial vistas of the lush mango plantations and white sand beaches of Guimaras.
Iloilo River
Visible during the final approach, showing the winding river and the city's urban landscape.
Choose the left side for coastal beauty and a bird's-eye view of Guimaras. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the harsh glare of the sun reflecting off the Panay Gulf. Keep an eye out for the small islets near the coast of Panay as you descend.
