Kho Shipping routes and travel tips

Kho Shipping operates overnight RoPax + RoRo services, and its home port is Mobo, Masbate. On Philippines Ferry it is listed on 6 corridors, including Cebu to Calbayog, Cebu to Masbate, Masbate to Pio Duran, Masbate to Calbayog, Tabuelan to Escalante and 1 more.

Departure times, fares and vessel details differ from route to route, so open a corridor below for the current timetable. Check current ferry cancellations before you travel, because sailings follow Coast Guard and weather suspensions. Student, senior and PWD discounts apply on most routes with a valid ID; see our guide to ferry discounts. Philippines Ferry does not sell tickets, so book with Kho Shipping or at the port ticket office.
