Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for iconic Philippine landmarks, including the volcanic peaks of Camiguin and a direct view of the majestic Mount Kanlaon during the approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🌋

Camiguin Island

Spectacular views of Mount Hibok-Hibok and the white sandbars surrounding the volcanic island.

⛰️

Bohol Terrain

Distal views of the unique limestone formations and the southern coastline of Bohol.

🏖️

Southern Cebu

Look down at the turquoise waters of Oslob and Sumilon Island as you cross the strait.

🏔️

Mount Kanlaon Summit

An up-close look at the active crater and lush slopes of the region's most prominent volcano.

🌾

Sugarcane Plains

The vast, emerald-green 'sugar bowl' of the Philippines visible during the final approach to Silay.

The right side is essential for seeing Camiguin early in the flight. Sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the massive peak of Mount Kanlaon, which is the highlight of the trip. Best visibility is usually on morning flights before the clouds gather around the volcanic summits.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Macajalar Bay

Aerial view of the deep blue waters and the Cagayan de Oro coastline immediately after takeoff.

🏝️

Siquijor Island

The mystical 'Island of Fire' can be seen in the distance across the Mindanao Sea.

🏙️

Dumaguete City

A clear view of the Negros Oriental provincial capital and its famous coastal boulevard.

🌋

Mount Kanlaon West

The rugged western ridges of the Visayas' highest peak during the descent into Negros.

Choose the left side for sunset views on late afternoon flights. Keep an eye out for Apo Island, a world-famous diving spot, which appears as a small green speck south of Negros. Early morning flights provide soft lighting on the Siquijor coastline.
