Return flights also take about 1 hour 20 minutes, with no meaningful difference between directions.", "methodology": "Carrier service, flight times and distances for this route come from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We report the days of the week and the departure times each carrier operates. The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two specific airports named, so an actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer. Where shown, on-time departure and arrival rates and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; where a typical fare is shown, it comes from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.", "toolsUsed": [ "flight_schedule" ] }, "q3": { "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Panglao?", "answer": "At Bohol–Panglao International Airport (TAG), the primary ground transport options are taxis and rental cars, with tricycles available for shorter local trips. There is no mass transit or ride-share service directly at the airport. Taxis are the most used and fastest way to reach central Panglao or Tagbilaran, taking about 15–20 minutes, while car rentals offer flexibility for exploring the island. Tricycles are a cheaper alternative for nearby destinations but are slower and less comfortable for longer distances.", "toolsUsed": [], "references": [ { "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohol%E2%80%93Panglao_International_Airport", "title": "Bohol–Panglao International Airport", "favicon": "https://en.wikipedia.org/static/apple-touch/wikipedia.png", "time_published": "2026-08-03T04:46:40Z" }, { "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagbilaran_Airport", "title": "Tagbilaran Airport", "favicon": "https://en.wikipedia.org/static/apple-touch/wikipedia.png", "time_published": "2026-08-03T06:58:39Z" }, { "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohol%E2%80%93Panglao%20International%20Airport", "title": "Bohol–Panglao International Airport", "time_published": "2026-05-01T17:56:34Z" }, { "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop&title=Kalibo_International_Airport", "title": "Kalibo International Airport", "favicon": "https://en.wikipedia.org/static/apple-touch/wikipedia.png", "time_published": "2026-07-07T18:53:14Z" }, { "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohol_Business_Park", "title": "Bohol Business Park", "favicon": "https://en.wikipedia.org/static/apple-touch/wikipedia.png", "time_published": "2026-04-26T10:25:31Z" } ] }, "q6": { "question": "Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Davao to Panglao?", "answer": "No nonstop red-eye flights operate from Davao to Panglao, but connecting itineraries whose long leg is an overnight flight are available.
