If you're coming from abroad, the fastest way to get to Ilocos Sur is through Laoag International Airport. Laoag International Airport is in Laoag City, the capital of Ilocos Norte.

If you're coming from Manila (via Manila International Airport), you can take Philippine Airlines which flies to Laoag City four times a week (except Wednesdays). Make sure you check with the airlines as schedules do vary.
