Waiting for my flight at Cebu Pacific Terminal

No Gravatar

May 26, 2007 I’ve been wanting to really make my website a real journal (and not an advertising thing lol,which is what it has been lately) of what’s keeping me busy and to also attempt to document my real estate internet selling progress. Now that i really have no much choice but to hang around where im sitting, i thought i might as well get back to blogging.

Im currently at the domestic airport terminal listening to Almighty Praise Album on my laptop to start my journal, enroute to my usual monthly trip to Boracay Island. As usual, Cebu Pacific is late, but the wait seems to be getting shorter, improving hahaha.

O Oh,I just heard an announcement that goes something like, “Flight Cebu Pacific 5J 343 bound for Kalibo aircraft will be delayed due to late arrival of turnaround aircraft. The new expected time of departure will be 5: 10pm (instead of 4:20) We apologize for the delay.” I have been hearing this in the last few flights too, bound for Tacloban and Bacolod. I dont know if this is something that’s an everyday thing, but it seems to me it is. I remember in my January flight this year along with my Mom, ate Janet and Nelson, it was 3 or 4 hours delayed apparently for the same reason. My friend who were bound for Cebu with her fiancee was also delayed that day, (its my first time to meet her Irish soon to be husband). It was too long delayed that Cebu Pacific gave us Free Jollibee Lunch. Then in Feb, when i was travelling with friend Julie, the flight was delayed for two hours too. Same thing happened on May 3 (my supposed April trip) they were delayed for more than an hourl. From 3 or 4, down to 2, then 1, now 40 minutes…that’s a development isnt it? hehe…

Oh by the way, since im travelling alone this time, and no one to share my load of luggage with, i paid P800 on excess baggage, its P 50/kilo including VAT :-( In fairness, i still enjoy taking Cebu Pacific flights because of convenience in buying tickets, i just have to print my ticket and check in, and not have to pass by the ticketing office upon arrival at the airport unlike when i ride Philippine Airlines. It seems cheaper by a thousand or two also. Its just that they dont offer snacks free with the ticket, but they do sell at P 50 per meal and drink onboard in case one gets hungry. PAL goes with a drink and bread. Well, i don’t mind, i usually eat before travelling. Cebu Pacific does some programs of ‘Bring me” or “Question and Answer” on board and give out a few prices to the winners.

It’s 18 minutes to 5:10pm yet. I hope there will be no more further delays. Because when i arrive in Kalibo Airport, i still have to take a van to Caticlan for an hour and 30 minutes, and that means i have to take a 15 minute boat ride at night time which i dont really prefer, I don’t like being in the water in the dark. Il be fetch in Caticlan so travelling on boat scares me less knowing i have someone i know with me. Well, im just thinking right now, that when I reach Boracay Island, a great dinner is up along the lively beach front. Oh no….as of this writing this very minute, another announcement just came out saying something like, “Passengers bound for Kalibo on Flight 5J 343 will be delayed, your new expected time of departure is at 5:35 p.m, please remain inside the departure area and wait for further announcement. Please accept our apologies for the delay, thank you”…

I just texted Richie who’s fetching me that il be delayed… I’m just glad that even if my flights get delayed, my Boracay trip has always been successful, so it’s all worth it. But to have an ontime flight would greatly add to the success! lol… Hey guys, if you are planning on getting a trip to Boracay soon, we are launching a Resort Online Reservation Website that will give the deals in room bookings on your resort of choice in Boracay.A lot of nice rooms are in the island, cheaper than you can find in most websites right now, primarily because a lot of smaller resorts doesn’t have a website to promote their rooms that are very friendly in pricing,watch out for it soon. It will be at BoracayStation.Com

We will help you find a room at lower and reasonable rates in a location that will best suit your boracay get away preference. Do you want something located at Station 1, Station 2 or 3? A room thats in the beachfront or the back (maybe 5 minutes walk to the beach front)? A room near party places? Budget Rooms, Transient Rooms? Long term stay cheap boracay rooms? Family-friendly rooms? (that offer facilities for baby bottle heating, etc.) Do you want something that’s very private away from the Crowd? Do you want a villa where you can do some cooking? A luxurious room with swimming pool? Name it and we will do our best to help and assist you. Well, i think that’s about it for now, im getting low bat.Mabuhay!

How to go from Manila to Boracay

No Gravatar

Coming from outside the Philippines? First, you have to take a flight to Manila – Ninoy Aquino International Airport, and take a local flight from Manila to Kalibo, Aklan Airport or Caticlan Airport.

Here’s how going to Boracay by plane from Manila goes, you have two options:

1) Manila to Kalibo – 45 minutes plane ride plus 1 hour and 30 minutes car ride and a 10 minute boat ride to Boracay Island.
2) Manila to Caticlan – 45 minutes plane ride plus 10 minutes land ride and a 10 minute boat ride to Boracay Island.

For option 1, you can take a 45 minute flight from Manila to Kalibo Airport (P 4000 to P 7000 roundtrip) then you have to travel from Kalibo Airport for one hour and thirty minutes by taking a bus to Caticlan (P 200 per person) or rent a van exclusively for you or your company -who ever else with you as long as you fit comfortably for P 1, 500 one way trip. Vans and Buses are readily available upon arrival at the Airport whenever there are incoming flights.


For option 2, you can take a 45 minute flight from Manila to Caticlan Airport (nearer to Boracay Island.) Caticlan is just a few minutes to Caticlan Jetty Port.

There are several carriers servicing to Kalibo like Philippine Airlines or Cebu Pacific.

There are more carriers servicing flights direct to Caticlan like SeaAir, Cebu Pacific, Asian Spirit and AirPhilippines among others.

Online bookings are normally available.

When you get to Caticlan Jetty Port, you have to take a 10 minute Ferry Boar Ride to Boracay Jetty Port (Cagban) costs P 19.50. There is a P 50 terminal and environmental fee per person that you have to pay going to the Island and upon Departing.

When you get to Boracay Port, you can take a Tricycle or a Multicab (small jeepney) that you can rent for P 250.00 just for you.

Just tell the driver where your resort is and they will take you to the nearest stop along the main road. From the Main road to the resort is usually a short five (5) minute walk to your resort. Vehicles are not usually permitted to go the beach front area, except for those with access roads to their resorts.

Btw, Porter Fee from Caticlan to the Boat is different from the porter fee from the Boat down to Boracay Island port. Normally it costs P 50.00 per luggage. So if you have 1 big bag, have 2 pcs. of P 50 bills handy.
The above is the way to get to a resort if you are not traveling on package tours. Some resorts have greeters who can meet you at the airport and take you all the way to your resort as part of the Package.

Also, some resorts charge separately for Airport Pick ups which ranges from P 1000 and up inclusive of Bus Ride (from kalibo) or van ride from Caticlan Airport to the Jetty port, porter fee, boat ride, terminal fee and multicab or resort van (aircon) ride to the resort.

From the main road, it’s about a 5 minute walk to the White Beach. White Long Beach of 4 kms. stretch of fine powdery sand and clear blue waters beach.

Boracay Island awaits your coming. Welcome! Mabuhay!
