Important Notes
- LSIs and APORs Cebu City Residents who cannot provide a Coordination Letter may still be accepted upon check-in but they need to coordinate with their respected barangay before boarding. This will be based on Cebu City government’s directory. Then, upon arrival at Mactan-Cebu Airport, they must approach the desk of the Cebu City LGU who will validate their acceptance in the area.
- Always make sure to coordinate with the local government units of your origin and destination directly before booking a flight and before departure. Ask for the latest list of requirements. Travel policies change quickly in these unusual times, so it’s best to get the information straight from the agencies that create and implement these policies.
