A new partnership between Banwa Private Island and Ascent Flights Global (“Ascent”) will offer a truly curated experience of personal safety and privacy through sustainable chartered air travel starting 1st September 2021.

Banwa Private Island and Ascent are now offering an exclusive, seamless and highly personalised travel bubble experience from on-demand private flights to the luxurious island sanctuary.

Located in North-eastern Palawan and nestled in Sulu Sea, Banwa Private Island is set amidst one of the most outstanding areas of natural beauty imaginable. The glistening island of lush, verdant landscaping and pristine white sands is the ultimate in luxury, tranquility and infinite privacy.

With Ascent, the exclusive island is still remote, but not removed. Conveniently and privately accessible by air from Manila by a preferred 8-seater seaplane directly from Manila on a 1 hour 45-minute scenic flight, landing on the doorstep of the exclusive island. Also available are helicopters for up to 10 passengers from Manila’s Ninoy Aquino International Airport or The Peninsula Manila’s helipad. Larger capacity fixed-wing aircraft from any destination in the Philippines is also part of the Ascent fleet.

Alternatively, guests can choose any commercial airline to any of Palawan’s three commercial airports, San Vicente, Puerto Princesa or El Nido, followed by a short helicopter flight across the Sulu Sea and land on Banwa Private Island’s own heli-lawn.

Lionel Sinai-Sinelnikoff, founder and CEO of Ascent added: “Banwa Private Island’s vision of an enhanced experience by air between Banwa Private Island’s guests’ home, and its remote delicate environment, is dear to us.
