How to go to Coron (Busuanga) Palawan




There are three mostly visited destinations in Palawan namely Puerto Princesa, EL Nido, and Coron (Busuanga). Among them, Coron is less visited because of expensive airfare but offers the more relaxing place, stunning beaches and 360 view of the island from Mt. Tapyas view deck.

There are two types of going to Coron (Busuanga) either via plane or ferry or boat. Booking a plane ticket is more expensive but have patience as they also give promo usually during lean season or travel fare (every February or September). I booked my round trip airfare via Cebu Pacific at Php1,30.19 (promo rate).

Cebu Pacific, Philippine Airlines and Skyjet Airlines are flying daily from Manila to Coron. Airjuan however also caters travelers (middle to elite class) from Boracay (Caticlan), Puerto Princesa flying every Tuesday and Friday. It also transport travelers from Manila to high end Busunga Resorts daily. These resorts includes  Busuanga Bay Lodge, El Rio Y Mar, Two Seasons Resort and Huma Island Resort.  

Here are the plane providers schedule. For range of prices or promo rates, just contact your chosen flight providers.
