Weather and season: Mindanao is rarely hit directly by typhoons, but connections via Manila can be affected. We build buffer time into routings and switch to alternative airports when needed.
Holidays: In the Philippines, Holy Week and the long Christmas season can slow down customs, airlines and trucking. Book early and send documents in advance around these dates.
