Getting to Zamboanga from the UK
Zamboanga International (ZAM) is served by domestic flights from Manila and Cebu, so a trip from the UK means a long-haul leg plus a connection, normally around 21 to 24 hours in total. As with every province, we book the domestic leg on the same itinerary as the long-haul so a delay does not strand you overnight in Manila with your bags.
Check the current travel advice before you book
We would rather tell you this plainly than leave you to find out. The UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office publishes travel advice covering parts of Mindanao, and that advice can affect travel insurance as well as your own plans. Read the current FCDO advice for your specific destination before you book, and tell us if anything in it concerns you — we will be straight with you about what we can and cannot arrange.
Bagahe and onward travel
Baggage allowance shrinks on the domestic leg, so we price the whole journey including the bags you need rather than quoting a fare you top up later. We can arrange transfers on arrival so nobody is waiting outside with the boxes.
How we make the trip home affordable
You do not need the whole fare today. Secure your seats with a deposit from £49 and pay the balance in instalments before you fly — hulugan ang natitira. If you need to check with family before committing, ask for our free 48-hour hold: we hold the seat and the price, you pay nothing while you decide. Selected fares carry up to 40kg of baggage, which is usually the difference between a cheap ticket and a cheap trip once the pasalubong is packed. We also offer an NHS discount — say so when you enquire if you work for the NHS.
Frequently asked questions
Are there direct flights from the UK to Zamboanga?
No. You fly long-haul into Manila or Cebu, then take a domestic flight to Zamboanga.
Is there travel advice I should read first?
Yes. The FCDO publishes travel advice covering parts of Mindanao which can also affect travel insurance. Read the current advice for your destination before booking, and talk to us about anything that concerns you.
Can you book the domestic leg with my international flight?
Yes, and we recommend it. Booked separately it is not protected if the long-haul is delayed.
Do your agents speak Tagalog?
