Sino’ng nagsabing kailangan ng five digits para maka-island hop?
Sa panahon ngayon, budgetarian is the new sosyal — at kung may isang politician na laging push ng push sa affordable travel goals ng masa, si Senator Imee Marcos ‘yan!
From her work as former governor of Ilocos Norte, up to her national projects as a senator, Imee’s all about making tourism accessible for everyone — hindi lang pang-Instagram, pang-kaluluwa rin ang experience!
P2P to Boracay? YES PLEASE!
Bakit kailangan pang magpa-stress sa multiple transfers when you can ride a Point-to-Point (P2P) luxury bus straight to Caticlan?
Yes, this is real! The Department of Transportation and relevant LGUs, in partnership with transport companies, launched a P2P route from Metro Manila to Caticlan, with airconditioned, reclining-seat buses, CR on board, and Wi-Fi — all at a fraction of the cost of flights.
Starting Price: Only ₱1,200–₱1,500 one-way!
That’s right. Compare that to a flight that can go ₱3,000–₱6,000++ depending on the season. This P2P option is perfect for:
– Budget travelers
– Student
– Barkadas
– Families with kids
Tapos diretsong ferry (₱300-₱600 with environmental fees) na lang papuntang Boracay’s white sand beach. Sulit, di ba?
Senator Imee Marcos has been vocal about supporting affordable transport and regional tourism to make travel more inclusive. She pushed for tourism corridors and connectivity to give ordinary Filipinos easier access to destinations like Boracay (Marcos, 2020).
