Since our beginning starting in July of 2005 SouthWest Tours, Inc. has been our official designated transfer company of WOW Philippines Travel Agency, Inc.

 

We have always been of the belief that providing our customers with safe and reliable transportation as being one of the many factors in providing a reliable service.

 

As a travel agency we have to rely on different third parties to provide extended services, and our main goal has always been to seek out the companies that put their clients first.

 

We use SouthWest Transfers for two very important reasons, (1st) there employees are committed to providing first rate service without begging their clients for tips. (2nd) Southwest provides new vehicles that are maintained to the highest standards, that exceed government requirements.

 

SouthWest Transfer Company has been in business since 1991, and for over 20 years now has had an impeccable record of transfering clients from the Kalibo International Airport to Caticlan and onto Boracay Island.

Caticlan Transfers:

Located on Panay Island, and is just a 35 to 55 minute flight from Manila with a quick, 15 minute boat ride over to Boracay Island. The Boracay airport has just one (1) runway, and can service only small single and twin engine prop-planes. These types of planes in general offer a slightly bumpier ride than the larger aircraft.

 

Travel Tip: When flying to Boracay keep your luggage to a minimum of (15) kgs for (check-in) and (7) kgs for carry-on, this will help you to avoid additional charges.

 

Total Travel Time from Manila: Approximately 1.5 to 2 Hours

 

 

Kalibo Transfers:

Located on Panay Island, and just a 45 to 55 minute flight from Manila with and additional bus ride of 1.5 hours to Caticlan Jetty Port where you will board a banca boat for a quick 15 minute boat ride accross the Tabon Straight to the island of Boracay.

 

The Kalibo International Airport has several runways and can service both domestic and international flights.

 

Travel Tip: The international airport in Kalibo can accommodate larger planes that have better overhead luggage capability and better leg-room. If you are traveling with larger groups, have additional luggage then we would reccommend this route. (in general ticket prices are also cheaper).

 

Total Travel Time from Manila: Approximately 2.5 to 3 Hours
