Which side of the plane to sit from Laguindingan Airport (Cagayan de Oro City) to Francisco Bangoy International Airport (Davao)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the majestic Kitanglad and Kalatungan mountain ranges in Bukidnon, as well as a clear view of Mount Apo, the highest peak in the Philippines, during the descent into Davao.
Mount Kitanglad
Fly past the towering peaks of this protected mountain park, a major landmark of Bukidnon province.
Mount Dulang-dulang
A close look at the second highest peak in the Philippines, often shrouded in a sea of clouds.
Kalatungan Range
Dramatic volcanic landscapes and deep ravines visible during the mid-flight segment over central Mindanao.
Mount Apo
The country's highest summit dominates the horizon on the right during the descent into the Davao region.
Davao City Skyline
A sweeping view of the urban sprawl and the growing metropolis as the plane nears the airport.
The right side is essential for mountain enthusiasts. For the most dramatic lighting on the peaks of Mount Kitanglad and Mount Apo, choose an afternoon flight. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff for the best mountain shots.
Macajalar Bay
Crystal clear views of the Misamis Oriental coastline immediately after takeoff from Laguindingan.
Pantaron Range
Witness the rugged, forested ridges that form the natural border between Bukidnon and the Agusan provinces.
Samal Island
An excellent view of the lush 'Garden Island City' as the aircraft maneuvers for landing in Davao.
Davao Gulf
Panoramic scenes of the vast gulf and its maritime activities as you approach the runway.
Sit on the left if you prefer coastal views and want to avoid direct sunlight on morning flights. This side provides a more scenic view of the Gulf and Samal Island if the flight approaches Davao from the sea (Runway 23).
