  • Traffic congestion on the Marcelo Fernan and Mandaue-Mactan bridges can significantly extend travel times, especially during rush hours (7–9 AM and 5–8 PM).
  • Yellow metered taxis use meters; white airport taxis charge fixed rates that are typically higher.
  • MyBus operates from the airport to SM City Cebu and Parkmall; service may be limited late at night.
  • Jeepneys require walking to the main road and typically involve transfers; not recommended for travelers with heavy luggage.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
