Frequently asked questions
How do I get from Manila Airport to Manila City?
The most popular option for traveling between Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Manila to the capital city of the Philippines is a taxi or booking a car using the ride-hailing app Grab.
Other options for transportation to the Philippines' capital city are commuting and riding jeepneys and trains, but that will involve multiple transfers. For an easier travel experience, you can opt to book an airport transfer to your hotel in Manila City instead.
For other major Philippine airports, such as Mactan-Cebu International Airport (MCIA) in Cebu Island province and Clark International Airport (CRK) in Pampanga province, booking an airport transfer is also a hassle-free option aside from riding a taxi or booking a Grab.
