Travelers heading between Baguio City and Metro Manila will need to adjust their travel budgets following a newly implemented provisional fare increase for provincial buses.



Effective March 14, 2026, the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has authorized a rate hike across various bus classifications to address rising operational costs. The order, officially signed on March 13, introduces a ₱0.35 per kilometer increase for air-conditioned provincial units.


New Rates for Baguio–Manila Routes

Under the updated matrix, the standard rate for regular air-conditioned provincial buses now stands at ₱2.45 per kilometer. For the approximately 300 km trip between Baguio and Cubao, the base fare has shifted to roughly ₱735, with most operators rounding the final price to ₱740.




Major carriers, including Victory Liner, have updated their ticketing systems to reflect these changes. Commuters can expect the following estimated rates for the Baguio–Cubao route:

  • Via Gerona, Tarlac: ₱740

  • Via TPLEX Urdaneta: ₱750

  • Deluxe (via TPLEX Pozorrubio): ₱871

  • First Class Express (Non-stop): ₱1,136

  • Royal Class Express (Non-stop): ₱1,646

Fares for trips to Pasay are slightly higher, ranging from ₱756 for standard trips to ₱1,682 for Royal Class services.



Breakdown of Fare Adjustments

The LTFRB’s decision impacts various bus tiers with specific incremental increases:

  • (Non-AC) +₱1.00 base fare; +₱0.30 per succeeding km

  • Regular Air-Con / Super Deluxe / Deluxe +₱0.35 per kilometer

  • Luxury Buses +₱0.45 per kilometer



Discounts and Reminders

Despite the hike, the mandatory 20% discount remains in effect for students, senior citizens, and persons with disabilities (PWDs). For a standard ₱740 trip to Cubao, discounted passengers will pay approximately ₱588.

The LTFRB reminds the public that fares may vary slightly depending on the specific route taken (such as use of the TPLEX) and the level of onboard amenities. Passengers are encouraged to check with their respective bus terminals for the most accurate and up-to-date pricing before heading out.

The Department of Transportation (DOTr) officially launched the expansion of the Siargao Airport passenger terminal building with a ceremonial groundbreaking led by DOTr Secretary Vince B. Dizon on Friday in Sayak, Del Carmen.



The P95.2-million infrastructure project marks a major upgrade for Siargao’s main gateway, aiming to significantly boost capacity, improve traveler comfort, and support the island’s growing tourism industry.


Once completed, the expanded terminal will double in size—from 716 to 1,531 square meters—and increase the number of check-in counters from 3 to 9. Passenger capacity will also rise dramatically, from 200 to 750 people at a time, easing congestion and long wait times that have plagued the current facility.

“Our local and foreign tourists deserve better,” said Sec. Dizon during the ceremony. “That’s why President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ordered us to improve the travel experience here in Siargao—because this island is one of our most important tourism destinations.”




Also present was Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco, who hailed the expansion as a “gateway to greater prosperity.” She emphasized that the project is not just about upgrading an airport but about delivering on a national vision of tourism-led growth and development.

“As Siargao’s popularity rises, it’s crucial that we build the infrastructure to match demand,” Frasco said. “This expansion is a collaborative effort between the public and private sectors to make travel more efficient and enjoyable, while also generating jobs and economic activity for the community.”



Siargao Airport, also known as Sayak Airport, currently handles 18 flights daily. However, increasing tourist arrivals have placed pressure on its facilities. The expansion project directly responds to this demand, aligning with broader goals to modernize the country’s air transport network.

The upgraded terminal is expected to provide not just more space, but a more seamless and comfortable travel experience—strengthening Siargao’s status as a world-class destination.




Officials from both the DOTr and DOT affirmed that the project would be completed efficiently, with construction beginning immediately following the groundbreaking ceremony.

For travelers and locals alike, the upgraded Siargao Airport promises to be a symbol of progress—where tourism, infrastructure, and community development go hand in hand.

Siargao Airport Expansion Breaks Ground, Set to Triple Passenger Capacity


Commuters on Metro Manila's busiest railway can now experience a faster, more convenient way to travel. The Department of Transportation (DOTr) today officially launched cashless payment options for the MRT-3, marking a significant upgrade in the urban transit system and positioning it as a pioneer in seamless payment technology.



DOTr Secretary Vince Dizon led the unveiling at the MRT-3 Ayala Station, personally demonstrating the ease of the new system. He highlighted that commuters can now simply tap their debit or credit cards directly at the gates or, for e-wallet users, generate a QR code from their mobile apps for scanning.


"There is no additional fare here," Secretary Dizon assured commuters. "The system is, whatever is deducted from your GCash, your credit card, your debit card, it is the same as if you bought a single journey ticket."

This innovative payment setup is touted by the transport chief as the first of its kind globally, capable of accepting both Near Field Communication (NFC) taps and QR codes from a single terminal. The DOTr also announced plans to extend these same cashless options to LRT-1 and LRT-2 lines in the near future, with the support of GCash and RCBC.



How to Use GCash at MRT-3 Gates

For the millions of Filipinos who rely on e-wallets, paying for their MRT-3 ride using the GCash app is now remarkably straightforward:

STEP 1 - Open your GCash app: Ensure you have the latest version installed on your smartphone.


STEP 2 - Look for "Commute" and tap it: This dedicated icon simplifies access to the QR ticketing feature.

STEP 3 - A QR Code will appear: This unique code is your digital ticket.

STEP 4 - Tap or scan your QR Code at an MRT-3 entry gate: Simply present your phone screen with the QR code to the designated scanner.


STEP 5 - The gate will open: Proceed through the turnstile.

STEP 6 - Do the same at the exit gate: The process is identical for exiting the station, ensuring your fare is correctly calculated.


Important Note: Your GCash account must have a minimum balance of ₱28 to successfully use the Commute QR code feature. For added convenience, users can also download a copy of their Commute QR for subsequent gate uses.


Wide Range of Participating Banks

Beyond GCash, the DOTr confirmed a broad list of banks supporting the MRT-3's new cashless payment method, offering flexibility for cardholders:



  • GCash: Visa (Debit), QR Code
  • Landbank: Mastercard (Debit/Credit), Visa (Debit)
  • BPI: Visa (Debit/Credit)
  • BDO: Mastercard (Credit), Visa (Debit/Credit)
  • HSBC: Visa (Debit)
  • GOTyme: Visa (Debit)
  • Union Bank: Visa (Debit)
  • RCBC: Mastercard (Debit/Credit), Visa (Debit)
  • Metrobank: Mastercard (Credit)
  • Security Bank: Mastercard (Credit)
  • Maya: Visa (Debit/Credit)
  • Chinabank: Mastercard (Credit)


This expansion of payment options is expected to significantly reduce queuing times, improve efficiency, and enhance the overall commuting experience for MRT-3 passengers, ushering in a new era of modern urban transportation in the Philippines.

With traffic congestion being a daily reality in Metro Manila, residents and commuters have long sought alternative ways to move around the city. From underground subway systems to the possibility of cable cars, many solutions have been explored. Now, attention is turning to a long-overlooked option: our rivers and lakes.


The government’s answer? The Manila Bay–Pasig River–Laguna Lake Ferry System, or MAPALLA—a proposed large-scale ferry network that could become a game-changer in urban mobility.


A Water-Based Transit Solution

According to the Department of Transportation (DOTr), MAPALLA is envisioned as a low-emission, high-volume, and frequent ferry service that will connect Laguna Lake to Manila Bay, passing through the Pasig and Marikina Rivers. With an estimated cost between ₱15 billion and ₱20 billion, the project includes not just the vessels, but also the construction of ferry stations, docks, and support infrastructure.

Loading...

DOTr Undersecretary for Planning and Project Development Timothy John Batan explained that the concept is about maximizing existing natural waterways to ease congestion on the roads. Despite Metro Manila being surrounded by rivers and coastal areas, water transport remains an underutilized option—currently limited to the small-scale Pasig River Ferry system.




Progress So Far

As of now, a feasibility study is nearing completion, and the DOTr hopes to secure full approval for the project by mid-2025. Discussions with potential private sector partners are already underway to help support the ferry system’s construction and operations.

“We expect the feasibility study to be finished by the first half of this year. By the middle of 2025, we aim to secure approval for the project,” Batan said during an interview on Radyo Pilipinas.

The ferry system’s first phase will stretch across a 30-kilometer route, featuring 32 stations along the Pasig and Marikina Rivers. To serve this route, the DOTr plans to deploy 40 electric ferries, each capable of carrying between 100 to 150 passengers per trip.



Integrated, Multimodal Transit

MAPALLA is more than just a ferry service—it’s envisioned as part of a fully integrated transport ecosystem. The plan includes seamless links with other public transport systems like trains and buses, as well as pedestrian and cycling infrastructure to promote sustainable mobility.

Inspired by successful water transit models such as the NYC Ferry in the United States and Thailand’s Chao Phraya River Ferry, MAPALLA aims to become a reliable and eco-friendly commuting option on a scale far beyond the current river ferry service operated by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA).




As Metro Manila’s roadways grow more congested each year, the MAPALLA Ferry System could finally unlock the potential of our waterways—offering a smarter, greener, and faster way to travel across the metro.
