Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from MNL to LBJ last minute?
Being a spontaneous soul is a rewarding way to travel around, but it’s not always the best way to get your hands on a bargain airfare. It’s better to book your MNL to Labuan Bajo Mutiara Airport trip well ahead of time rather than leaving it until the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you arrive in Labuan Bajo Mutiara Airport!
