Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers the most iconic landmarks, including a world-class view of Taal Volcano and the sprawling Laguna de Bay during the final approach into Manila.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
💎

Romblon Archipelago

Aerial perspectives of the 'Marble Capital' islands scattered across the deep blue sea.

🌋

Taal Volcano

An unbeatable bird's-eye view of the world's smallest active volcano sitting inside a lake.

🌊

Laguna de Bay

The massive expanse of the Philippines' largest lake, often used as a waypoint for landing.

⛰️

Mount Makiling

The legendary 'Sleeping Giant' mountain located on the border of Laguna and Batangas.

🏙️

Metro Manila Skyline

Dramatic views of the dense skyscrapers in BGC, Makati, and Ortigas just minutes before touchdown.

The right side is the 'money side' for this route. To get the best view of Taal Volcano, look out approximately 15-20 minutes before landing. Morning flights are recommended to avoid atmospheric haze and for the best lighting on the volcanoes and city skyline.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Sibuyan Sea

Expansive turquoise waters separating the Visayas from the main island of Luzon.

🏝️

Mindoro Coastline

Distant views of the rugged mountains and coastal fringes of Mindoro Island to the west.

Mount Pico de Loro

The distinctive jagged peak and parrot-beak shape of this famous mountain near the Cavite coast.

🚢

Manila Bay

Panoramic views of the international shipping vessels anchored in the bay during the final turn.

Select the left side for afternoon or sunset flights to witness the sun dipping into the West Philippine Sea. It provides excellent views of the rugged Cavite coastline during the standard approach to Runway 06.
