Updated Supercat Schedule

There is actually an update on Supercat Schedule of trips. I was in a hurry and just added a comment on one of the entries. Here's the link. Supercat now has two boats servicing Calapan - Batangas route: Supercat 23 and Supercat 20. Regular fare is Php 255.00, Php205.00 for students. They also give discounts for minors (4-11 y/o) and Senior Citizens. They also still have Tipid Trip Promo on selected trips which offers Php180.00 flat rate fare per person. You may call any of the following numbers for more details on the promo:
  • Batangas Port Ticketing Office : +63 (43) 723-0179
  • Calapan Port Ticketing Office : +63 (43) 288-3179

Other Fastcraft Servicing Batangas-Calapan Route

Montenegro Shipping Lines has now a fastcraft servicing Batangas-Calapan (v.v.) route. Currently they have an all-day promo of Php180/person fare. It is smaller than the other fastcraft, The Supercat, and it travels  approximately one (1) hour.
 
Being a busy port, considering that this route is now included in Philippine Nautical Highway, having an alternative like this is a big help for the passengers like me, who regularly uses this route.
