Cebu Helicopter Charter

Cebu is the Philippines' second charter base and the natural hub for the Visayas: Bohol, Panglao, Bantayan, Malapascua and the Camotes are all inside half an hour, and Siargao and Boracay are single sectors rather than connecting flights.

Why fly this leg

What a helicopter actually changes here

The Visayas hub

From Mactan almost every worthwhile island in the central Philippines is inside 35 minutes.

Ferries lose the morning

Two hours of fast craft plus two harbour transfers is the alternative to a twenty-minute sector.

Weighed loads, honest seats

Dive gear and luggage change how many passengers actually fit; we compute it before quoting seats.

Second base, lower positioning

Flying from Cebu instead of Manila removes hours of positioning on Visayan sectors.

Bohol and Panglao in about 20 minutes, Bantayan and Malapascua in 30–35, the Camotes in 20, and Siargao or Boracay as single sectors of roughly an hour.

Substantially. The fast craft takes two hours plus harbour time at both ends; the helicopter is twenty minutes and lands closer to Panglao's resorts where a site is cleared.

Where the property has a cleared area and permission. Otherwise we use the nearest airfield or approved site and plan the short ground leg into the itinerary.

Yes — Malapascua and Moalboal movements are common requests. Dive gear is treated as weighed cargo and can affect passenger numbers, so tell us the load early.

SkyMatch is a helicopter charter broker and operator network. We source and coordinate your flight with suitably licensed operators; the aircraft, crew, approvals and operational responsibility remain with the operating carrier. That is also why we publish ranges rather than fixed fares: the price you accept is the operator's current quote for your specific dates.

Seven to fourteen days is comfortable in high season, and 24–72 hours is often workable outside peak dates. Short-notice requests are possible but depend entirely on aircraft, crew duty and slot availability on the day.
