My friends and I would love to go to Batanes. We researched on how we could go there and we found out that SeaAir is the only airlines from Manila to Batanes. If we will take a different airlines and go to Laoag, then another small plane will be the only option to go to Batanes. We would really like to go to Batanes and we're hoping that we can take a bigger airlines. The fare is also expensive through SeaAir. Have you been in Batanes? Do you know of other inexpensive and safer ways to go there?

My husband's parents came from Batanes. Life there before was not easy so they move to Baguio when they start raising their family. They still have relatives there. I've been wanting to see and visit Batanes to see the beauty of this virgin island. I have heard so many good thoughts about the island. The wind blows so strong thee even on summer season, so you won't get irritated of the summer heat. Hope to be there soon.

That's true. The pictures shows the serene beauty of Batanes. I'd love to stay there for several days to experience the gift of nature. But you have to pray hard not to have typhoons when you're there.
Thank you for responding!

It's true. It is not hot in Batanes during summer because of the cool blowing wind.
The place is very beautiful I want to be there again.
Now I only have pictures for the great memories I've experienced there.
If you don't mind, you can visit a video of Batanes pictures I've created.

I've been to Batanes last summer. Yes, the airline fare is really expensive. But I guess because it keeps them on business that way. There are few flights going to and from Batanes from time to time.
One inexpensive way would be to get the promo fares. You can cut the ticket price that way.
