Immediate views of the white sand beaches and luxury resorts of Samal and Talicud right after departure.
Chocolate Hills
Mid-flight, you can spot the famous symmetrical brown or green mounds spread across the plains of Bohol.
Cebu City Skyline
A clear view of the urban landscape of Cebu, the CCLEX bridge, and the busy Mactan-Cebu International Airport.
Tanon Strait
The narrow, deep blue channel between Cebu and Negros, often dotted with fishing vessels and cargo ships.
Negros Sugar Fields
The vast green carpets of sugarcane plantations that define the landscape of Negros Occidental during final approach.
The right side is ideal for capturing the diversity of the Philippine landscape, from mountains to major cities. For the Chocolate Hills, look out about 25-30 minutes into the flight. Polarized sunglasses will help reduce the glare from the sea during the midday sun.
