(SPOT.ph) Flying out soon? That approximately 20-kilometer journey to Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) just became a lot more convenient for travelers from Cavite. UBE Express has launched a point-to-point (P2P) bus service connecting Imus City, Cavite to all of the NAIA terminals.
Passengers can catch the bus at The District Imus, which serves as the designated pick-up and drop-off point in Cavite.
The service operates daily trips starting from NAIA at 3:30 a.m. and from The District Imus at 5:00 a.m., with several stops at Terminals 1, 2, 3, and 4. According to UBE Express, eight buses are currently deployed for the route.
Each bus is also fully air-conditioned and equipped with GPS technology, Wi-Fi, and CCTV for a safer and more convenient ride for passengers.
The buses have an introductory rate of P300 per trip, with a discounted fare of P150 for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs). Payment can be made using cash or beep cards. You can also book a trip in advance at the UBE Express website.
Prior to the launch of this service, commuters from Cavite had to go to the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) to catch a P2P bus or pay between P700 to P1,00 for a Grab ride to NAIA.

Trip schedule for P2P bus from Cavite to NAIA
Trip schedules are subject to change at any time, so it’s best to double-check with UBE Express’ Facebook page for updates.
Do note that this is a P2P transit, so the bus will head straight to the pick-up and drop-off destination without stopping in between. Meaning: You can't just be dropped off wherever you like, even if it’s along the route.
This new route arrives just in time as authorities prepare for an influx of passengers at NAIA with the holiday season fast approaching. Plus, there’s even more reason to catch UBE Express now that overnight parking fees at NAIA have tripled since October.
Located at Aguinaldo Highway corner Daang Hari Road Anabu II-D, The District Imus is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. from Mondays to Saturdays.
