Sayak Airport (IAO) to General Luna
The transfer almost every Siargao trip starts with — island airport to the main visitor town, met on arrival.
The route
Sayak Airport, commonly called Siargao Airport, is the island’s main airport and is located in the municipality of Del Carmen. It is designated a Class 2 principal airport by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines. General Luna is on the opposite, south-east side of the island, so a road transfer across Siargao is part of every arrival.
Why book it before you fly
Sayak is a small island airport and arrivals cluster around a handful of flights a day. Booking ahead means someone is waiting with your name when you walk out, on a price agreed before you left home — rather than sorting transport in the heat with a queue behind you.
What we need from you
Your flight number and date, how many of you are travelling, how many bags and boards, and the name of your accommodation in General Luna. That is enough for a fixed, all-in quote by email. If your flight moves, tell us and we will move the pickup.
Why there is no price or journey time here
We would rather publish nothing than publish a number we cannot stand behind. Roads, weather and group size all move the answer. Send the trip and we will send a fixed, all-in price for your date.
