Flight
When booking flights, we highly recommend the shortest haul flight which is usually a one stop layover and approximately takes ~ 22 hours. Flight costs vary as to the time of year, date and layovers. Currently, the prices for end of May and early June are approximately ~$1500 roundtrip per person. You have two options when booking flights to your final destination which is Dumaguete, Philippines - either you pass by Manila, PH or Cebu, PH. If you choose Manila, you have to book another flight from Manila to Dumaguete which takes about 1 hr and 25 mins. We highly suggest you take a flight to Cebu, Philippines then take another short flight (~ 55 mins.) from Cebu to Dumaguete. It tends to be cheaper as a flight from Cebu to Dumaguete will cost about $29-$40 per person one way while Manila to Dumaguete will cost $38-65 per person one way. Our recommended airlines are as follows: o EVA Air (usually the cheapest and has shortest flight time; has bigger leg room for economy) - Layover stop is usually in Taipei, Taiwan o Korean Air (known to be very reliable) - Layover is usually in Seoul, South Korea o ANA (very clean and reliable) - Layover is in Tokyo, Japan
