So plan wisely!

By Land - from Cagayan de Oro to Iligan

If you are taking this route, you change planes at the Manila International Airport. You would go from the International to the domestic side of the airport.

Your connecting flight from Manila to Cagayan de Oro is about one hour. Your plane will land at Cagayan de Oro's Lumbia Airport.

They are building a new airport between Iligan and Cagayan de Oro to serve both neighboring cities. It is going to be bigger and accessible to all. So far, it is scheduled to open in 2012. For more updates check back here often.

When you arrive in Cagayan de Oro, taxis and jeepneys are plentiful. No shortage here.

While the bus is certainly the cheapest option, it is a bit of a hassle. To start, you need to take a taxi or jeepney to the Cagayan de Oro Bulua Bus terminal.

Then you need to catch a bus heading for Iligan with your luggage in tow. It’s not really the best way to end your journey after many hours in flight.

Remember, this final leg of travel to Iligan will take another one and a half hours. So we highly recommend taking the taxi – it’s just so much easier!

You want to rest up a bit before you meet all your family and friends. Besides, the typical taxi fare is only about 300 pesos and any more than that is high.

We hope you enjoy the ride and don’t forget --- take pictures along the way.
