Camiguin Island
A breathtaking view of the 'Island Born of Fire,' featuring the prominent Mount Hibok-Hibok and the white sandbar.
Siquijor Island
In the distance, the mystical island of Siquijor is often visible surrounded by vibrant coral reefs.
Cebu Island Spine
The central mountain range of Cebu provides a rugged contrast to the surrounding turquoise seas.
Mount Kanlaon
The most active volcano in the Visayas, offering a clear view of its massive crater and sulfuric scars on the right.
Guimaras Strait
On the final approach to Iloilo, see the bustling maritime traffic and the mango orchards of Guimaras Island.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to capture the sunset over the Sulu Sea. Keep your camera ready about 20-30 minutes into the flight for the best shot of Camiguin. During the descent into Iloilo International Airport, this side provides a panoramic view of the Guimaras Strait and the Iloilo City coastline.

Mount Apo
Shortly after departure, view the Philippines' highest peak rising above the clouds to the west of Davao City.
Bukidnon Highlands
Extensive views of the high-altitude pineapple plantations and rugged mountain ranges of central Mindanao.
Iligan Bay
The transition from the Mindanao landmass into the deep blue waters of the Bohol Sea.
Southern Negros Coast
Aerial perspective of the sugar-rich plains and coastal towns of Negros Oriental as you approach the Visayas.
Choose the left side for morning flights (typically departing before 10:00 AM) to avoid the harsh tropical sun glare. This side provides the best view of Mount Apo's peak if the flight path takes a more westerly route upon departure. Watch for the sudden change in terrain from the lush Mindanao forests to the agricultural grids of Negros.
