Its focus is the long beach I.. Here we detail some of the Raiders long beach I..1. air:
You can choose two ways to long beach I. tourism, is a syndicated talk travel agency, then there is its own buy tickets for tours.
I choose the latter, he bought the ticket. I'm in CEBU PACIFIC ticket, starting from Shanghai Pudong International Airport, go to Manila, then turn to KALIBO. Full round-trip ticket in 1600 Yuan or so, the season will be more expensive, especially in the eleventh, the Spring Festival. The price will rise to around 3000-4000. Preferably in advance booking, international and domestic segments together, three months or six months will be cheaper. Website: www.cebupacific.com, or through a travel agent booking.

But the island every Exchange points exchange rate does not, therefore, I suggest it is best to change directly in domestic banks, La. pesos If not, take us over for pesos. The exchange rate of RMB in the Philippines is low, it is recommended that you do not bring RMB. The island has ATM ATM, you can use the credit card payment, direct references to the drawings, the exchange rate in accordance with the domestic pesos of standards.

I selected the CEBU PACIFIC's cheap air, 00: 30 Shanghai Pudong fly, morning 04: 00 o'clock to Manila, then turn, sat 6: 00 or 7: aircraft to KALIBO or CATICLAN airport.
KALIBO airport is far from the pier, is about comparing one and a half hours by car, the cost is 170 pesos. If you are to the CATICLAN airport is very close, probably less than 10 minutes.
