Calbayog is the main gateway to Samar's rugged coastline, sinkholes and the famous rock formations of Biri Island further north, and Philippine Airlines flies it nonstop several times a week.
Philippine Airlines operates the nonstop service on this route on select days each week. Cebgo also serves Calbayog, but with a stopover in Cebu rather than flying direct from Manila.
The nonstop flight takes about 5 hours 5 minutes.
With a limited weekly nonstop schedule, fares from AU$119 tend to move mostly with how far ahead you book, and rise around Holy Week and the Christmas-New Year period when domestic travel across Samar picks up.
Calbayog Airport sits close to the city centre, one of the more conveniently placed regional airports on this network. Taxis and tricycles run from outside arrivals; there's no rail link, so onward travel is entirely by road.
Manila and Calbayog are both in the Philippines, so this is a domestic flight and a government-issued photo ID accepted for internal travel is normally enough.
Manila and Calbayog are both on Philippine Standard Time, so there's no clock change on this route.
Traveloka lets you compare the nonstop Philippine Airlines service against Cebgo's Cebu-connecting option, track fares with a Price Alert, and change dates through Easy Reschedule if your plans shift.
Samar pairs naturally with other eastern Philippines hops, including Manila to Legazpi further along the same coastline.
