2025 UBE EXPRESS Bus Guide • NAIA to/from Manila, Laguna & Cavite

Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), also known as the Manila International Airport, is the busiest airport in the Philippines. And with Metro Manila’s notorious traffic, just getting there can feel like a trip on its own.

While taxis and ride apps are an option, they can get pricey. Public transport works too, but it’s not always the easiest with luggage and multiple transfers. Enter UBE Express — a premium P2P bus service that offers direct and affordable rides to and from NAIA, not just around Metro Manila, but also in places like Santa Rosa in Laguna and Imus in Cavite.

Here’s everything you need to know about the UBE Express Bus service — available routes, tickets, schedules, and frequently asked questions.

UBE Express NAIA Loop

UBE Express buses heading to NAIA from any of the seven available routes mentioned above also run the NAIA Loop route. Meaning, they go around all the NAIA terminals, picking up and dropping off passengers throughout the day.

The free inter-terminal shuttle buses are only for passengers with connecting flights. If you are landing at Terminal 1 or 2 and need to get to Terminal 3, but you have no connecting flight, the UBE Express NAIA Loop is your best option.
