Zamboanga City Transportation Tips by bike_packer Top 5 Page for this destination

Six Flights A Day

Zamboanga City being a major airport hub in southwestern Mindanao is serviced by at least 6 flights a day from Manila. Short connecting flights to the neighboring provinces and a very few international flights make the airport here a little busy.

From Manila are 2 flights each by Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific and Air Philippines - that is, 1 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon. Last plane out in Zamboanga by 5pm.

The airstrip here is a little bit rough, expect a bumpy landing. Last time I heard is that they are putting up a new airport in the very near future, the reason there's not much improvement in the present airport.
