Flights from Zamboanga International Airport

Although Zamboanga International Airport does offer some flights each week, many passengers prefer taking the train into Manila before booking another flight somewhere else - especially those whose plans might change due to weather or needing flexibility with regards to when and where they fly. This practice has become common among travellers seeking flexible flight arrangements.

Once you arrive at Zamboanga International Airport, Jeepneys or tricycles can provide convenient transportation around the airport and directly take you where you need to go, or back directly back to it. Hire these from outside the airport if available - these will get you from point A to B quickly and affordably.
