SCHEDULE UPDATE

Cagayan de Oro to Cotabato City now has a confirmed two-trip schedule

Cagayan de Oro to Cotabato City previously only had a first/last-trip placeholder (5:30 AM and 10:00 AM assumed for both directions). Rural Transit Mindanao Inc.'s own RTMI Bulua branch board (effective August 20, 2026) confirms a distinct two-trip daily schedule per direction: Cagayan de Oro to Cotabato City at 5:00 AM and 10:00 AM, and Cotabato City to Cagayan de Oro at 7:00 AM and 2:00 PM.

VERIFIED

Davao City to Sulop now shows its route on the map

Davao City to Sulop was a leftover fare-reference route with only a TBD placeholder trip and no stopovers, so it shadowed the real Davao/General Santos corridor for this search and left the map with nothing to draw or zoom to. That placeholder route has been removed, so the search now resolves through the same corridor Padada and Santa Cruz already use, with a real published schedule and a map that plots and zooms to the actual route.

Davao City to Sulop now shows a real schedule and a working route map instead of a placeholder

Dipolog to Cagayan de Oro now has a confirmed departure schedule

Dipolog to Cagayan de Oro previously had no confirmed local departure times. Rural Transit Mindanao Inc.'s Bulua branch schedule confirms 18 daily Aircon departures from Dipolog, from 12:00 AM through 10:00 PM. The reverse direction, Cagayan de Oro to Dipolog, is still awaiting its own confirmed schedule.

FARE UPDATE

Any two stops now priced on the Cagayan de Oro to General Santos corridor

Searching between two intermediate stops that never had an explicit fare posted together (e.g. Matalam to Impasugong, or Damulog to Tacurong City) previously showed an estimated fare instead of a confirmed one. Every stop on this corridor now has its own confirmed or derived General Santos-anchored fare, so the fare between any two of them is derived the same way already used on the Davao to Cagayan de Oro and Davao to Cotabato City corridors -- the difference between their two anchored fares.

Cagayan de Oro City -> General Santos City

Confirmed fares now shown for every stop combination on this corridor, not just the explicitly posted pairs

Digos City, Polomolok, and Tupi completed on the Davao to Koronadal City corridor

Digos City, Polomolok, and Tupi previously had no confirmed fare to or from Koronadal City on the Davao <-> Koronadal City (Marbel) corridor. Digos City <-> Koronadal City (P323) is derived from the confirmed Davao <-> Koronadal City (P448) minus Davao <-> Digos (P125). Davao <-> Polomolok (P363) and Davao <-> Tupi (P395) are derived from the confirmed Davao <-> General Santos fare (P315) plus each stop's General Santos-anchored fare, and their Koronadal City sides (P85 and P53) follow the same P448 subtraction as the rest of this corridor.

President Quirino and Tantangan fares added on the Cagayan de Oro/General Santos corridor

President Quirino and Tantangan previously had no confirmed fare from either end. A September 2026 Carmen (North Cotabato) terminal board prices both from that third anchor point, and combined with the already-confirmed Cagayan de Oro <-> Carmen and General Santos <-> Carmen fares, both stops now have a fare from Cagayan de Oro City (P740/P790) and from General Santos City (P245/P195).

SCHEDULE UPDATE

Carmen, Davao del Norte separated from the other three same-named Carmen towns

Four unrelated real towns are named "Carmen" (North Cotabato, Davao del Norte, Agusan del Norte, Surigao del Sur). A search from or to Carmen, Davao del Norte could previously resolve through a completely different Carmen's route -- for example a "Carmen -> General Santos City" search silently returning the unrelated Cagayan de Oro <-> General Santos route through Carmen, North Cotabato. Carmen, Davao del Norte is now labeled "Carmen (Davao del Norte)" like the other two already-disambiguated towns, and place-name matching no longer lets a bare town name fuzzy-match a differently-qualified same-named town anywhere in the app.

Impact

Correct, non-conflicting search results for every same-named town pair across the app

Cagayan de Oro/General Santos and Davao south highway: remaining one-sided fares completed

Dangcagan, Damulog, Datu Paglas, Buluan, and Polomolok now have fares from both ends of the Cagayan de Oro <-> General Santos corridor, each derived from the confirmed full-route fare (P985) minus the known side. On the Davao south highway, General Santos <-> Santa Cruz/Padada/Sulop/Malungon and Koronadal City <-> Santa Cruz/Padada/Sulop/Malungon are now derived the same way from the confirmed Davao <-> General Santos (P315) and Davao <-> Koronadal City (P448) fares.

Fixed wrong fares between Davao-CDO intermediate stops

Searching between two stops on the Davao-Cagayan de Oro corridor that are neither Davao nor Cagayan de Oro (e.g. Buda to Valencia City) previously showed one of the two stops' own fare to Cagayan de Oro as if it were the fare between them -- a real error, not just an unconfirmed estimate. It now derives the correct fare from both stops' own confirmed fares (e.g. Buda to Valencia City is now 210.00, not Buda's own 495.00 to CDO).

Fixed a Carmen search mix-up between four towns of the same name

Four unrelated towns share the name Carmen -- North Cotabato, Davao del Norte, Agusan del Norte, and Surigao del Sur -- and a bare "Carmen" search could resolve to the wrong one depending on which corridor it was searched from. Carmen, North Cotabato and Carmen, Surigao del Sur are now labelled with their province on MindaRide; Carmen on its own resolves to the more common Agusan del Norte stop, matching Butuan's own province.

Davao City to Loreto added

A new operator — Cyrus Express & AC Trans — now connects Davao City and Loreto (Agusan del Sur) in both directions. The route runs through Panabo City, Carmen, Tagum City, Mawab, Nabunturan, Montevista, Monkayo, Trento, Santa Josefa, and Veruela before arriving in Loreto. Confirmed full fare is 400.00, with Student/Senior/PWD fare at 380.00. The operator runs four daily Aircon trips each way. Out of Loreto, departures are 3:00 AM, 7:30 AM, 11:00 AM, and 12:00 NN; out of Davao, they run at 3:00 AM, 4:00 AM, 9:00 AM, and 2:50 PM. Travel time is approximately 5h 30m - 6h.

FARE UPDATE

Davao to Butuan Luxury 3-Stop is 770.00, not 725.00

Bachelor Express's Luxury 3-Stop between Davao and Butuan was priced at 725.00, the same as the Regular Trip and the 12-Stop, because all three share one trip type in the data. The posted fare for the 3-Stop is 770.00 straight, 620.00 for Students, Seniors and PWDs -- worth noting because 20% off 770.00 would be 616.00, and the operator charges 620.00. The Regular Trip and 12-Stop keep 725.00 with 590.00 concession, and the Luxury Non-Stop keeps 895.00 with 715.00.

New guide: Cagayan de Oro to Tandag

A single through ticket across the north coast and onto the Surigao del Sur Pacific side, 390 kilometres by way of Butuan. Bachelor Express runs it at 985.00 full, 788.00 for Students, Seniors and PWDs, with six departures out of Cagayan de Oro -- 12:00 MN, 3:00 AM, 4:30 AM, 6:00 AM, 7:30 AM, and 9:00 AM. It shares its first half with the Cagayan de Oro-Surigao route and its second half with Butuan-Tandag, diverging from both at Mainit, so the guide flags that as the detail worth checking before boarding.

Zamboanga to Cotabato: Rural Transit's own schedule, not Mindanao Star's

Rural Transit's Zamboanga to Cotabato departures matched Mindanao Star's times exactly -- 2:00 AM, 4:40 AM, 4:30 PM, 6:15 PM, 8:15 PM, 10:15 PM -- which is the mark of one operator's schedule having been copied onto the other rather than recorded from its own board. Rural Transit's actual posted schedule is 4:40 AM, 4:30 PM, 6:30 PM, 8:30 PM and 10:10 PM: no 2:00 AM trip, and the three evening departures each 15 to 20 minutes off from what was shown. Mindanao Star's own nine departures are unchanged, and so is Cotabato to Zamboanga in both directions. Fare stays at 1,060.00 full, 850.00 SP/SC.

Cagayan de Oro to Tandag: six departures, and four of the old times were wrong

Bachelor Express, running as Bachelor Tours, posts six trips out of Cagayan de Oro: 12:00 MN, 3:00 AM, 4:30 AM, 6:00 AM, 7:30 AM and 9:00 AM, the last trip. MindaRide was carrying five, and only the 3:00 AM was right -- there was no midnight or 4:30 AM run listed at all, and the 5:15 AM, 8:20 AM and 9:40 AM are not on the operator's board. Anyone planning around the old 5:15 AM would have arrived 45 minutes after the 4:30 AM that actually leaves. The fare is unchanged at 985.00, with 788.00 for Students, Seniors and PWDs. Only the Cagayan de Oro direction changes: the poster covers that side alone, so Tandag to Cagayan de Oro keeps its own departures until an operator schedule for it turns up.

Zamboanga to Dipolog night trips now live, and the route is findable again

Rural Transit's Rural Tours corridor between Zamboanga City and Dipolog City had a fare on file but no departures at all, so it came up empty. The operator's posted schedule is now on MindaRide in both directions, and it is a night service throughout -- there is no daytime bus on this route. Departures are 6:00 PM, 8:00 PM, 10:00 PM and 11:45 PM, which the operator calls the last trip, on an 8 to 10 hour run, so plan to sleep on the bus and to arrive in the morning. The straight fare is 755.00, with 605.00 for Students, Seniors and PWDs -- worth noting because 20% off 755.00 would be 604.00, and the operator charges 605.00. The corridor was also filed under 'Dipolog via Shariff Aguak', a road it does not take -- it runs straight up the peninsula through Pagadian -- which is why searching Zamboanga to Dipolog City found nothing. It is filed under Dipolog City now. A route guide comes with it.

Three more guides: Butuan-Tandag, Zamboanga-Cotabato, CDO-Surigao

Butuan City to Tandag is Bachelor Express at 510.00, and it shares the Surigao road as far as Mainit before turning down the Pacific coast -- so check the board, the two buses look alike at the Butuan terminal. Zamboanga to Cotabato is the one to read carefully: the two directions are scheduled differently, with most Zamboanga departures running overnight, while out of Cotabato Rural Transit takes the mornings and Mindanao Star the evenings, at 1,060.00 and 1,050.00. Cagayan de Oro to Surigao is a single 770.00 ticket across the north coast by way of Butuan, twelve departures a day -- and it leaves from Agora, not Bulua.

You can now search either name and reach the same buses. Two guides come with it. Butuan City to Bislig is Bachelor Express at a flat 500.00, 6 to 8 hours down the Agusan valley through Bayugan, San Francisco and Hinatuan -- the stop for the Enchanted River. Davao City to Bislig is the same operator at 464.00 over 315 kilometres, sharing the Davao de Oro highway with the Butuan services. Both run on two timetables, one for Friday to Monday and a different one for Tuesday to Thursday.

Surigao to Butuan is Bachelor Express at 305.00, on two different timetables: a heavier one Friday to Monday and a lighter one Tuesday to Thursday, which is the detail that catches midweek travellers out. Davao to Kidapawan is Mindanao Star every half hour at 263.00. Davao to Digos is three operators at a flat 125.00, and any southbound bus out of Davao will take you there.

The direct fare is 5,750.00.

Departures from Cagayan de Oro are 12:00 NN and 3:00 PM, daily.

The 20% Student/Senior/PWD concession applies to the bus leg only -- the ferry is a separate operator and is charged in full -- so the discounted fares are 1,808.00, 1,903.00 and 2,595.00 respectively. All three also carry the Inter-Island Trip badge now.
