Search flights from DVO to DPL
Mount Apo
Dominating the skyline after departure, this is the highest mountain in the Philippines at 2,954 meters.
Lake Lanao
A massive ancient lake in Lanao del Sur, one of the largest and deepest in the country, surrounded by lush highlands.
Illana Bay
The deep blue waters of the Moro Gulf become visible as the aircraft traverses the neck of the Zamboanga Peninsula.
Zamboanga Mountains
The rugged, forested mountain range forming the backbone of the peninsula leading toward the destination.
Book a window seat on the left (A) for a direct view of Mount Apo's crater. Choose a morning flight (before 10:00 AM) for the best visibility as clouds often gather around the peaks by midday. Keep your camera ready within the first 10-15 minutes of flight.
