SEAIR offers complimentary transfers to all Boracay-bound passengers
South East Asian Airlines (SEAIR), the country’s premier leisure airline, announced that it now offers complimentary transfers to all its passengers bound for Boracay. VIP service will be accorded to all SEAIR passengers by duly assigned transfer coordinators upon the plane’s landing at Godofredo Ramos Airport in Caticlan to the boat’s docking at the Cabgan or Tambisaan Jetty Port on the island of Boracay.
“We offer world-class comfort nd service to all of our passengers. We’re the only airline in Boracay offering round-trip complimentary transfers all the way to Boracay Island and this has proven to be very helpful especially to first-time Boracay vacationers,” said Patrick Tan, SEAIR VP for commercial affairs.
At Godofredo Ramos Airport (Caticlan Airport), SEAIR transfer coordinators will be on hand to assist passsengers in claiming their checked-in bags. After collecting all the boarding passes, passengers will be accompanied to a specially marked SEAIR van to take them to the Caticlan Jetty Port. The land transfer is free of charge.
Waiting for the van at the Caticlan Jetty Port are more SEAIR transfer coordinators who will accompany the passengers as they pay for their terminal and environmental fees. They will then be guided to the designated ferry that will bring them to Cabgan or Tambisaan Jetty Port. A coordinator will be waiting for the ferry in the jetty port and will help by showing the passengers where to ride the tricycle or multicab to get to their respective hotels and resorts. The same arrangement for Manila-bound SEAIR passengers is available. SEAIR transfer coordinators are stationed at the Boracay Jetty Port.
Traveler have found SEAIR to be the top choice in getting to Boracay. With as much as 28 flights to Caticlan daily in the summer, departing from Manila in 30-minute intervals, more traveler go for SEAIR. The airline currently has four Dornier 328 planes, state-of-the-art turboprop aircraft for 32 passengers that gives the fastest flights to Boracay in 35 minutes.

Excellent! This will definitely make transfers to boracay a lot easier and will avoid the need to haggle with tricycle drivers and boatmen. I hope this initiative will be sustained as we are definitely flying by SEAIR to this beautiful island in December. Keep it up!

Wonderful! This was one of my last remaining concerns in my upcoming trip in November. SEAIR now has a happy and loyal customer even before I have even flown with them!

Back from my holiday in Boracay, and I have to give ‘props’ to SEAIR for the way they run their business. Even though both my original flights were cancelled they did their utmost to get me on suitable alternative flights. The transfer arrangements they have put in place from Caticlan airport onwards to the jetty for the boat ride over to Boracay and the return trip where invaluable for a first timer like me. And I am sure regular travellers would appreciate the convenience as well.
Loved flying in the Dornier (apart from a few cockroaches that decided to use my head as a landing pad).
The smaller LET was starting to look a little old but flies perfectly. Someone should tell the Korean tourists not to stand up out of their seats and look out the windows or over at the pilots when the plane is just about to land!!!
Hopefully I will get another chance to fly with SEAIR in the not too distant future.
