About this crossing

Tickets for this new 2GO leg go on sale on 23 September. The MV 2GO Masinag reaches General Santos from Davao on Saturday afternoon, leaves at 23:00, crosses the mouth of the Moro Gulf overnight and berths at Zamboanga at 13:00 on Sunday, then sails on at 20:00 for Iloilo and Manila. The loop runs one way only, so no ship returns from Zamboanga to General Santos and the trip back has to be made another way. The fares listed are those in 2GO's advisory, which it calls its highest published rates before tiered discounts, and they leave out meals, fuel surcharge, fees and VAT. From Zamboanga, FastCat crosses to Isabela on Basilan three times a day (Zamboanga to Isabela).
