Yesterday, the provincial government website blogged that Cawit Seaport opened last October 8. The MV Rebecca a -4 story roro leaves Cawit Port at 12:00 noon and 8:00PM daily.
In addition, the Masiga airport ( known as the Marinduque airport) in Gasan is scheduled to open the first week of December. Zestair, formerly Asian Spirit will operate air services from Manila. The schedule days are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. A promotional one way fare of 499 pesos plus terminal fee has been announced and must be booked by October 29.

This is indeed good news for the tourism business in Marinduque. One question that I had has not been answered by the provincial government. This pertains to the date of the GRAND OPENING of the Elephant Island resort.
I have heard it is a 6-star resort. Anyone knows if this is true? If anybody knows the latest development on Elephant Island please response to the comment box of this blog.
Note: Last week, I received an e-mail from Yong Nieva, that the maiden flight of Zestair from Manila to Marinduque is scheduled for November 15. The promotional round trip fare is only 946 pesos. What a bargain! The flight will leave Manila 11:20AM and will return to Manila at 1:30PM.
The Zestair maiden flight will start November 15 with a promotional fare of less than 1000 pesos round trip. What a bargain! The flight leaves Manila around 11:20AM and return around 1:30PM. I am still looking for an answer what will be the regular fare after this promo. Anyone knows?
