NAIA 1-2-3-4 Shuttle Bus Updates
This is the sequel of our post on NAIA Shuttle Bus entitled "NAIA 1-2-3 Shuttle Bus: Easy Way To Get To & From NAIA Terminals". If you haven't read it yet, you need to do so because it contains the information supplemented by this second part, such as, how to get to the NAIA Shuttle Bus Terminal in Pasay Rotunda.
I needed to publish this second part because there are changes on NAIA Shuttles that if not disseminated accordingly will bring confusions to commuters. One of the major changes is the new look of NAIA Shuttle Bus that serves commuters from Genesis Bus Terminal in Pasay Rotunda to Terminal 3 of NAIA. You might keep on waiting for a NAIA Shuttle arrival not knowing that the bus has already arrived.
Added to that the fact that the NAIA Shuttle from Pasay Rotunda has no signage of its destination on its windshield.
If you're not familiar or if it's your first time to commute from Pasay Rotunda to Terminal 3 via NAIA Shuttle, you wouldn't know which one of the buses at the bus terminal is the one bound for NAIA-3. That's because the NAIA Shuttle Bus has now transformed into an all-white colored bus in outer body with HM lettering plus 2 digit number painted in dark color. Gone is the corporate lettering of NAIA 1-2-3 Domestic Loop that commuters got to read as soon as they saw the NAIA Shuttle bus back then. So, folks, here's the new look of NAIA Shuttle Bus that you get to see at Genesis Bus Terminal in Pasay Rotunda. Above are the latest photos of NAIA Shuttle Bus taken at Genesis Bus Terminal in Pasay Rotunda on July 27, 2012. Note: After alighting at Terminal 3, you will transfer to another newly added NAIA Shuttle for Terminal 4-2-1, in that order. Yes, there's another new fleet of NAIA Shuttle in Terminal 3. Read on to learn more.
What is the new NAIA Shuttle Bus that takes passengers to and from NAIA 1,2,3 and 4?
What are the schedules of NAIA Shuttles?
How do shuttles get to each terminal, which one comes first?
Can I now take a NAIA Shuttle from Terminal 1 even if I'm not an arriving passenger?
How do we recognize a NAIA Shuttle?
Are all NAIA Shuttles dedicated to Terminal 4?
Where is the NAIA Shuttle from Pasay Rotunda headed after dropping passengers at NAIA-3?
Where can I get off the shuttle from NAIA-3 aside from Pasay Rotunda?
How much is the fare of a NAIA Shuttle ride?
My goal is to bring you information you need to know in getting to and from each of NAIA terminals. There are factors you need to remember in riding a shuttle from one terminal to another the most important of which is don't miss your terminal destination because when you do, you might get late for your flight and that's the last thing you want to happen. It happens from time to time. I have witnessed one when I boarded the NAIA Shuttle Van while documenting the flow of shuttles for this update. As soon as we left Terminal 1, a lady asked another passenger where's the location of Terminal 2. The man told her that he boarded the shuttle at Terminal 2. It occurred that the lady didn't alight when the van made the stopover at Terminal 2 and now she would have to stay on the van as it drops passengers at Terminal 4, Terminal 3, Terminal 4 again before going back to Terminal 2. That's quite a long journey to your terminal. Tip: Ask the driver, especially of the shuttle van, what's Terminal he's just made the stop over. They always assumed all passengers are familiar with NAIA terminal locations.
EGC Transport, a newly added fleet of NAIA Shuttle now serves commuters and airline passengers. It takes passengers from one terminal to another. Upon arrival to Terminal 3 from EDSA, you can ride this bus. If this bus has not yet arrived, then you can ride a shuttle van. Read the types of NAIA Shuttles and how to recognize them. In these photos is the ECG Transport Bus:
At NAIA Terminal 3 loading and unloading area for passengers bound for Terminal 1,2 and 4, EGC Transport Bus NAIA Shuttle parks to drop and load passengers. First Stop from Terminal 3 is Terminal 4, but you need to inform the conductor or the driver that your destination is Terminal 4 for him to drop you at pedestrian crossing opposite the Domestic Terminal.
As you can see in this photo taken from the inside of EGC Transport, the bus parks at Airport Shuttle waiting area of NAIA Terminal 2 where passengers bound for Terminal 1,3 and 4 are waiting. After passengers bound for Terminal 2 have alighted, it's their turn to board the bus. The crew of EGC Transport Express will load passengers' luggage to help them out.
The EGC Transport Express NAIA Shuttle Bus drops passengers outside departure lobby of NAIA Terminal 1. It will not pick up passengers there. Unlike NAIA Shuttle van that I got to board even if I was not an arriving passenger. Please read Can I now take a NAIA Shuttle from Terminal 1 even if I'm not an arriving passenger?
After all passengers have alighted at departure of NAIA-1, EGC NAIA Shuttle Bus goes down to the area of "NAIA Shuttle Service to Terminal 2,3 & 4" outside Arrival Lobby which is located to your right as you get outside Arrival Lobby. There's a sign that reads NAIA Shuttle Service To Terminal 2, 3 & 4. You can't ride at this area if you're not an arriving passenger. You can ride a NAIA Shuttle van outside departure area which is upstairs.
The first trip of NAIA Shuttle from Genesis Bus Terminal in EDSA-Taft Pasay Rotunda to NAIA Terminal 3 is at 6 am. It serves the public up to 10 pm daily. The shuttle buses and vans that serve passengers to and from Terminal 1,2,3 and 4 start their operation at 6 am up to 2 am.
This is crucial information for those who would take a NAIA Shuttle van. They don't have specific destination. For example, you board a shuttle van at Terminal 2 thinking that it gets to Terminal 3. To your surprise, the van takes the direction to Terminal 1. Tip: When riding NAIA Shuttle van, always ask the driver about where he's headed. Please read separate post about this, click here.
EGC Transport Express has specific route. From Terminal 3 it drops passengers bound for Terminal 4 at pedestrian crossing opposite the Terminal. You must inform the conductor that your destination is Terminal 4, if that's the case. Next is Terminal 2. From Terminal 2, it goes directly to Terminal 1 departure area to drop passengers, then it goes to the arrival area to pick up arriving passengers. Next to Terminal 1 is Terminal 4. You must inform the crew you're alighting there. Please read Are all NAIA Shuttles dedicated to Terminal 4?. Last destination is Terminal 3 where the bus starts the driving loop again.
If you have just accompanied a flying relative or friend, you can not board a NAIA Shuttle. It's no longer allowed. This is an update as of June 27, 2013. As on the morning of that day, I've tried to hop in and was told only "connecting flight passengers" are allowed. To get to MRT-3 Taft or LRT-1 EDSA station, ride a public bus at loading/unloading area few meters away from Terminal Bldg. Use the stair and go down to Arrival level. Cross the street and wait for a bus to arrive.
Obviously, you can easily recognize EGC Transport Express. But what if the bus hasn't arrived yet. If you're in a hurry, you can ride the NAIA Shuttle Van. Since the van ia a Toyota vehicle, you might mistake other motorist car for the NAIA Shuttle. To avoid that, just look for a Toyota van with NAIA logo on the front and on both sides of driver's seat. There's also a sign on the windshield that reads "Terminal 1,2,3 Domestic 4".
No, in a sense that they don't make a stopover at Terminal 4 when there's no passengers that tell them to do so. Even if a NAIA Shuttle comes from Terminal 2 or Terminal 1 and it traverses Domestic Road lane that touches Terminal 4 ground, it won't enter the Domestic Terminal if no one is alighting there.
So, if you're an arriving passenger at Terminal 4 headed to Terminal 3, expect to wait longer than ordinary. You are lucky if by chance a passenger on-board a shuttle from Terminal 1 or 2 is alighting as you get out of the old Manila Domestic Airport. Otherwise, just take a cab which are ample outside the terminal.
The NAIA Shuttle Bus from Pasay Rotunda to Terminal 3, after dropping passengers at NAIA-3 unloading area, goes directly to its Bus Stop in Newport City to drop passengers bound for Resort World Manila and other destinations there. It doesn't pick up passengers because there are other NAIA-3 Shuttles at the loading area. Commuters from Newport City going to MRT/LRT lines can ride the bus at Newport City bus stop. Read details on the separate post, go to How To Commute To Newport City & Resort World Manila.
You can alight at strategic locations along the route between NAIA Terminal 3 and Bus Terminal in Pasay Routunda where MRT/LRT lines are located. First unloading is at Tramo corner Andrews Ave before traffic lights of Aurora Blvd aka Tramo. Second unloading area is at Baclaran. Just inform the driver that you're alighting there. Now for those who have reserved a room at Heritage Hotel prior to their arrival, you can also get off the NAIA Shuttle Bus from Terminal 3 right in front of Heritage Hotel. This unloading area is also good if you want to transfer to a taxi. It saves a lot of money to take a cab at Heritage Hotel than at the airport while it's not convenient to take one at Pasay Rotunda, not to mention the safety issue. Next to Heritage Hotel stop is Genesis Bus Terminal, although in my experience last time, the driver had allowed quick unload before Taft, albeit, he rushed and pressured the passengers to move real quick.
The cost of riding a NAIA Shuttle is Php 20 as of this writing. You must pay every time you ride a shuttle, i.e., pay Php 20 upon riding NAIA Shuttle from EDSA-Taft to Terminal 3, pay Php 20 when you ride a shuttle from Terminal 3 to Terminal 2, pay another Php 20 when you ride a shuttle from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1 and so on.
Hope this update on NAIA Shuttles answers questions that might boggling your mind. Another reason I've created this is to answer questions asked in the comment section of the post "NAIA 1-2-3 Shuttle Bus: Easy Way To Get To & From NAIA Terminals" by commuters, flying & arriving passengers and those who accompanied relatives or friends in leaving the country. And that's what I exactly did.

Commute Fast To Restaurants & Establishments In Bonifacio High Street
The BGC bus stops (loading/unloading station) near to Bonifacio High Street from MRT Ayala Station are: "The Fort Bus Stop 26th St" and "30th St Stop Bonifacio High Street." The bus that served The Fort Bus Stop is the "West Route" bus which takes McKinley Road from EDSA while the bus that served 30th St BHS is the "East Route" bus which takes EDSA and Kalayaan Ave from the same BGC bus terminal in EDSA. The fleet of "West Route" buses are the ones with BGC signs on their outer bodies. The fleet of "East Route" buses are the ones with either HM or Worthy signs on their outer bodies. But there are few times that BGC signed buses also take East Route if there are no available HM bus. "East Route" BGC buses takes McKinley Road unlike HM buses which pass through EDSA and Kalayaan Ave on its way to east BGC.
"I am currently updating this post because, the bus stops are relocated from their original locations. The summation in the paragraph above are now based on the new bus stops' locations. But further down this article from this second paragraph, directions are not yet edited for consistency with the new bus stops mentioned above. But you can still use the guides below as reference in going to BHS." - Lagalag

Note: There's no B4 because of Feng Shui.

In the map below is the whole stretch of Bonifacio High Street from 5th Ave (West end) to 11th Ave (East end). All establishments, e.g., restaurants, bars, boutiques, offices, etc are located in the buildings that lined up both sides of BHS. Click each red pin in the map to reveal the name of a particular building and the establishments located in that building. Tip: After looking up the name of your destination in the alphabetical list, go to this map and look up the building, then go to "walk direction" part.
5th Ave is the main road of West BGC. 11th Ave is the road between High Street east end and Serendra which is just outside Market Market. You can get to High Street from Market Market by exiting the mall towards Fiesta Market, the open air food court before the open parking. There's a Jollibee to your left as you exit. Once outside, go toward your right and use pedestrian lane to cross the road to get to Serendra. Go inside Serendra shops, walk past restaurants and stores of Serendra and then cross 11th Ave to get to the High Street which you will immediately see.
Map #1. Click red pins and blue bus markers to get accurate information. Don't rely on embedded data.
If you come from Market Market, you will enter High Street at 11th Ave toward its other end in 5th Ave. Here are the order of buildings as you walk past them: To your left: B6, B5, B2, B1, C2 and C1. To your right: B7, B8, B3, C3 and C4 (under construction). There's no B4 because of Feng Shui.
There are four bus stops that you can use to get to your destination inside BHS depending on its location. How would you know what bus stop to alight? First, you must know the building in which your destination is located. Second, look up the building in the two maps below and see which bus stop is nearer to the building. Click the markers - red pins and bus stop signs for more information.
Map #2. Net One Bus Stop and The Fort Bus Stop. Please click bus markers for more information.
Map #3. High Street 30th St Bus Stop & High Street 28th St Bus Stop. Please click bus icons for info.
Net One Bus Stop - It's faster to get to C1, C2, C3 and C4 (under construction by now) with this Bus Stop because the bus that stops here takes shorter route of McKinley Road. Located at 27th St in West BGC, this bus stop is for commuters coming from The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA near MRT-3 Ayala Station as well as those from Glorietta, SM Makati and those from far distant locations travelling by trains. The sign of bus you must ride is "West Route". If you don't know the location of The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA, click here. Nevertheless, the nearest Bus Stop to C1, C2, C3 and C4 is The Fort Bus Stop, depending on what day you're going and what type of bus you're riding. Read "The Fort Bus Stop".
How to get to BHS from this bus stop? Walk back towards the corner of 27th St and 4th Ave. Turn left and walk towards the corner of 4th Ave and 28 St. Turn right, walk towards 5th Ave and you will immediately see C1 Bldg across the 5th Ave, see Map #2 above.
The Fort Bus Stop - Located in 5th Ave, this bus stop is served by buses bound for Market Market and have "East Route" sign in their fronts. If you're riding East Route Bus that takes McKinley Road, then this is nearer compare to Net One Bus Stop and it's better to alight here if your destination is located in C1, C2, C3 or C4. But most buses bound for Market Market from The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA are the ones with Worthy and HM names painted on their outer body and they are not allowed to take the shorter route of McKinley Rd. They take the longer route of EDSA-Kalayaan-West BGC-High Street-Market Market. But there are times when a bus with "The Fort Bus" or "Bonifacio Global City" name painted on its body also takes Market Market Route via McKinley Rd especially during weekend and if there's no available HM and Worthy. If the "East Route" bus you are about to ride is painted "The Fort Bus" or "Bonifacio Global City", then use this Bus Stop. On the other hand, if the available bus bound for Market Market is painted "HM" or "Worthy Transport", then it's faster to take "West Route" bus and alight at Net One Bus Stop. Before you buy ticket at The Fort Bus Terminal, it's better to look at what bus is headed for Market Market. It's at the back of "West Route" bus along the road outside The Fort Bus passengers' waiting area.
How to get to BHS from this bus stop? Just walk along 5th Ave towards 28th St and you will immediately see the road sign that reads "High Street". C1 is just across the next intersection which is 28th St. See Map #2 above.
High Street 30 St Bus Stop - This Bus Stop is nearer to B3, B1, B2, B5, B6, B7 and B8 if you're coming from The Fort Bus Stop Terminal in EDSA and MRT Ayala Station.
How to get to BHS from this bus stop? Follow the direction of the arrow in our third map above, Map #3. Just walk along 9th. You will immediately see Agave, Nuffnang and 2nd's along 9th Ave. The building to your right is B3 while the building to your left is B8. Click the red pins on the map to get more information.
High Street 28th St - This is the nearest bus stop to the center of High Street if you're coming from Market Market and you want to take a bus. The sign of the bus to ride must be "BGC Central". You must inform the driver that you're alighting at High Street because if not the bus driver might take different direction that will not pass by this bus stop. The terminal of The Fort Buses in Market Market is in the open parking area just outside Fiesta Market. To see the terminal in the map, click here.
How to get to BHS from this bus stop? Walk along 9th Ave northward. Immediately, you will see Active Fun, Mother Care, Honda Cars, Bo Concept, Toy R Us, Natuzzi, etc. They are all along 9th Ave. The building to your left is B2 and to your right is B5.

 |
| C2 Bldg in BHS with its name stands conspicuously above it |
In the map below is the whole stretch of Bonifacio High Street from 5th Ave (West end) to 11th Ave (East end). All establishments, e.g., restaurants, bars, boutiques, offices, etc are located in the buildings that lined up both sides of BHS. Click each red pin in the map to reveal the name of a particular building and the establishments located in that building. Tip: After looking up the name of your destination in the alphabetical list, go to this map and look up the building, then go to "walk direction" part.
5th Ave is the main road of West BGC. 11th Ave is the road between High Street east end and Serendra which is just outside Market Market. You can get to High Street from Market Market by exiting the mall towards Fiesta Market, the open air food court before the open parking. There's a Jollibee to your left as you exit. Once outside, go toward your right and use pedestrian lane to cross the road to get to Serendra. Go inside Serendra shops, walk past restaurants and stores of Serendra and then cross 11th Ave to get to the High Street which you will immediately see.
Map #1. Click red pins and blue bus markers to get accurate information. Don't rely on embedded data.
If you come from Market Market, you will enter High Street at 11th Ave toward its other end in 5th Ave. Here are the order of buildings as you walk past them: To your left: B6, B5, B2, B1, C2 and C1. To your right: B7, B8, B3, C3 and C4 (under construction). There's no B4 because of Feng Shui.
Walk Directions From Four Bus Stops To BHS Destinations
There are four bus stops that you can use to get to your destination inside BHS depending on its location. How would you know what bus stop to alight? First, you must know the building in which your destination is located. Second, look up the building in the two maps below and see which bus stop is nearer to the building. Click the markers - red pins and bus stop signs for more information.
Map #2. Net One Bus Stop and The Fort Bus Stop. Please click bus markers for more information.
Map #3. High Street 30th St Bus Stop & High Street 28th St Bus Stop. Please click bus icons for info.
Net One Bus Stop - It's faster to get to C1, C2, C3 and C4 (under construction by now) with this Bus Stop because the bus that stops here takes shorter route of McKinley Road. Located at 27th St in West BGC, this bus stop is for commuters coming from The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA near MRT-3 Ayala Station as well as those from Glorietta, SM Makati and those from far distant locations travelling by trains. The sign of bus you must ride is "West Route". If you don't know the location of The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA, click here. Nevertheless, the nearest Bus Stop to C1, C2, C3 and C4 is The Fort Bus Stop, depending on what day you're going and what type of bus you're riding. Read "The Fort Bus Stop".
How to get to BHS from this bus stop? Walk back towards the corner of 27th St and 4th Ave. Turn left and walk towards the corner of 4th Ave and 28 St. Turn right, walk towards 5th Ave and you will immediately see C1 Bldg across the 5th Ave, see Map #2 above.
The Fort Bus Stop - Located in 5th Ave, this bus stop is served by buses bound for Market Market and have "East Route" sign in their fronts. If you're riding East Route Bus that takes McKinley Road, then this is nearer compare to Net One Bus Stop and it's better to alight here if your destination is located in C1, C2, C3 or C4. But most buses bound for Market Market from The Fort Bus Terminal in EDSA are the ones with Worthy and HM names painted on their outer body and they are not allowed to take the shorter route of McKinley Rd. They take the longer route of EDSA-Kalayaan-West BGC-High Street-Market Market. But there are times when a bus with "The Fort Bus" or "Bonifacio Global City" name painted on its body also takes Market Market Route via McKinley Rd especially during weekend and if there's no available HM and Worthy. If the "East Route" bus you are about to ride is painted "The Fort Bus" or "Bonifacio Global City", then use this Bus Stop. On the other hand, if the available bus bound for Market Market is painted "HM" or "Worthy Transport", then it's faster to take "West Route" bus and alight at Net One Bus Stop. Before you buy ticket at The Fort Bus Terminal, it's better to look at what bus is headed for Market Market. It's at the back of "West Route" bus along the road outside The Fort Bus passengers' waiting area.
How to get to BHS from this bus stop? Just walk along 5th Ave towards 28th St and you will immediately see the road sign that reads "High Street". C1 is just across the next intersection which is 28th St. See Map #2 above.
High Street 30 St Bus Stop - This Bus Stop is nearer to B3, B1, B2, B5, B6, B7 and B8 if you're coming from The Fort Bus Stop Terminal in EDSA and MRT Ayala Station.

High Street 28th St - This is the nearest bus stop to the center of High Street if you're coming from Market Market and you want to take a bus. The sign of the bus to ride must be "BGC Central". You must inform the driver that you're alighting at High Street because if not the bus driver might take different direction that will not pass by this bus stop.
