Sorry folks, but flying to your summer destination will have to be delayed for the better.

Following the government’s imposition of stricter quarantine measures inside the newly-coined NCR+ bubble, some of the country’s top tourist destinations have temporarily banned tourists directly coming from the National Capital Region and its adjacent cities of Rizal, Bulacan, Laguna, and Cavite from March 22 to April 4, 2021.

The list so far includes Ilocos NorteBaguio CityEl Nido in Palawan, Boracay, and the island of Siargao, all according to separate travel advisories issued by their respective tourism boards.
