Which side of the plane to sit from Legazpi City International Airport (Legazpi) to Mactan Cebu International Airport (Cebu)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unrivaled view of the world-famous Mayon Volcano immediately after takeoff and a spectacular panoramic view of the Cebu coastline and the iconic CCLEX bridge upon arrival.
Mayon Volcano
The 'Perfect Cone' is the star of the show; you will get a direct look at its symmetrical slopes right after takeoff.
Masbate Mainland
Views of the rolling hills and cattle ranches of the Philippines' rodeo capital.
Bantayan & Malapascua
In the distance, you can often spot the northern tips of Cebu, famous for their world-class diving and white sands.
Cebu City Skyline
A breathtaking view of the dense urban center of the Queen City of the South during the descent.
CCLEX Bridge
The Philippines' longest bridge connecting Cebu City to Cordova is clearly visible as you line up with the runway.
The right side is essential for the best view of Mayon Volcano; choose a window seat away from the wing (usually front or rear of the cabin). Early morning flights are highly recommended as Mayon is frequently shrouded in clouds by midday. On approach to Cebu, the right side provides a superior view of the new infrastructure and the city's coastal development.
Albay Gulf
Deep blue waters and the jagged eastern coastline of the Bicol Peninsula visible during the initial climb.
Bulusan Volcano
The southernmost volcano on Luzon island, often surrounded by lush greenery and mystic clouds.
Ticao Island
A rugged island in the Masbate province known for its steep cliffs and hidden coves.
Camotes Islands
A group of four islands in the Camotes Sea known for their white sand beaches and turquoise lagoons.
Mactan Resorts
Luxury resorts and coral reefs lining the shores of Mactan Island as the plane enters the landing pattern.
Sit on the left if you enjoy seeing the vastness of the Visayan Sea and the scattered islands of the eastern archipelago. Afternoon flights on this side avoid the direct tropical sun, making it easier to take photos of the Bulusan volcano and the Camotes group without glare.
