Joy Bus Manila to Baguio Bus 2024 Schedule, Fares, Terminals & How To Book)

Schedule and fare rates from Manila to Baguio via Joy Bus Genesis Transport Service. Last updated on August 17, 2024.

Whenever I go home to Baguio, I always ride the cheapest Victory Liner bus which takes me 6-7 hours to reach the city. It’s a bit of a stressful ride especially when the holidays come in and you sit in the middle aisle.

When I was still in Manila during our board exam review days, I once had the chance to ride the bus to Baguio deluxe JoyBus of Genesis bus not because I wanted to but because it was the only bus available.

The trip from Manila to Baguio only took 3 to 5 hours. Not only was it fast but it was comfortable and convenient. Impressive, huh?

About JoyBus Buses

Joybus premiere.

Here’s a short tour inside the JoyBus Premier bus.

Now, what if I tell you there’s a better bus to Baguio than the deluxe Genesis bus? Genesis Transport has launched its JoyBus Premiere Class Bus which will only take you 4 hours to reach the city of Pines!

When I heard about the new JoyBus Premiere Class of Genesis bus, I just had to try and experience it firsthand.

True enough, when I stepped inside the bus, it was different than most buses. For starters, it’s almost like you’re in a first-class seat of an airline.

With JoyBus Premiere Class Genesis bus, you get to enjoy:

• More spacious legroom compared to the deluxe buses (29 seats with 3 seats per row – 2×1)
• An entertainment system for playing games, reading news/ebooks, watching movies or listening to music (with a USB Port where you can charge your mobile phones)
• Warm Blanket
• Comfort Room
• Tray Tables like the ones in the airplane (Plus a cup holder)
• FREE Biscuits and Bottled Water
• Bus Attendant

JoyBus Executive

Aside from JoyBus Premiere, you also have the option to ride the JoyBus Executive and JoyBus Deluxe. But what makes these different from each other?

Compared to the JoyBus Premiere, JoyBus Executive does not have an entertainment system, a USB port or a tray table. The seats in the Premiere bus are also thicker.

Aside from those, Joy Bus Executive still offers a spacious leg room, reclining chair and a toilet inside the bus. Just like Premiere, the Executive bus has 29 seats arranged as 3 seats per row (2×1).

JoyBus Deluxe

If you’re on a budget but want to travel to Baguio without any stopovers, your best option is the Joybus Deluxe. Unlike the Executive and Premiere buses, the Deluxe bus has 4 seats per row (2×2) and a total of 44 seats.

This means it’s less spacious but it does have a toilet.

• The entertainment system placed behind the seats only has a few games, movies, and music.
• Currently, the bus route is from Pasay to Baguio City with a stopover in Cubao. They don’t have a NAIA3 to Baguio route. They only have a NAIA3 to Clark route.
• When choosing a seat, you can either take the right side where you won’t have any seatmate or the left side which is perfect if you have a friend with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

I get a lot of questions about the JoyBus Premiere bus so I decided to put it all here. Hopefully, these will also answer your questions.

Do we have to reserve a ticket online or is a walk-in possible?

Walk-ins are allowed. But if you’re traveling on a holiday or a long weekend, it’s best to reserve your tickets online. I made the mistake of not booking a ticket ahead and I had to wait in line for hours!

Are there any NAIA to Baguio buses from JoyBus?

No there’s none. There’s only a Baguio to NAIA 3 route for JoyBus. The JoyBus parked at NAIA3 is only going to Clark and not Baguio. If you are on a budget and don’t want to spend a lot on taxi, you can take the shuttle bus at Terminal 3 going to MRT Pasay. Fare is at 20 pesos. The last bus stop is the terminal of JoyBus in Pasay. If you’re having a hard time locating the bus, just ask the guards. (Thanks Vince for sharing this info!)

When can we claim our tickets?

You can claim the tickets 1 to 2 hours before the departure time.

Is there any senior or student discount when booking online?

According to Genesis Transport, “To avail of the 20% discount, Senior Citizens, PWDs and Students must show their respective IDs. For students, please make sure that the school is within this current school year and you’re not taking Master’s or Doctorate degree. You will need to book first as a regular passenger then we’ll have the 20% discount refunded by the time you exchange the travel voucher for a boarding pass.”

How can I book online?

Here’s a step-by-step guide: JoyBus Premiere Class: How To Book The Genesis Bus Online

How long is the bus ride?

It’s usually 4 to 6 hours. But if your trip is from Cubao to Baguio scheduled at night, it’s 4 hours. If it’s from Pasay, you can expect a longer time since the bus still stops over at the Cubao terminal.

If you have any more questions, feel free to contact Genesis Transport on Facebook messenger . They usually reply within a day.

Wow! This is quite an upgrade from the traditional buses for long travels we have today. My family is excited to try this. We love going to Baguio. 🙂

Would you know if they would allow an adult share seat with a 7yo?

Thanks Johanes for this blog, information you have given are super helpful since it’s the first time I’m taking my husband with our children to Baguio City of Pines for Christmas this year 🙂

Hi Anna! Glad to help. 🙂 Hope you enjoy Baguio!

pwede po ba mag ride papuntang sison?

Hi! Me and my wife is going to Baguio this Thutsday, June 6. I want to experience this Joybus. I just want to ask if there are parking spaces available in the Pasay terminal since we will be taking our car to Pasay. Thank you for your very informative blog.

Hi Johanes. Is there any CR in this bus? Thank you ?

Hi Peverlyn,

Yes, there’s a CR. 🙂

Hi, where’s the terminal located in Pasay?

it’s in Pasay Rotonda 🙂 The bus terminal entrance is fronting Metropoint Mall and is right at the back of Sogo Hotel, McDonalds and Chowking outlets.

Hi,are there no buses outside the airport?or if not,is the joybus terminal near naia? Thank u.

Update as of Jan 22, 2018, Joybus doesn’t have a NAIA3 to Baguio route so you have to board at the Pasay terminal. The ones parked at NAIA3 are going to Clark.

Hi Johanes! May this note reach you in the best line of health.Our plane arrives at NAIA terminal 3, at 10:30 PM, March 25, 2019. JoyBus Premier De Luxe pick passenger at NAIA Terminal 1.What shall I book 1:30 AM or 3:30 AM? I don’t know what time we can checkout and how will I book? Am Senior 79 yrs. old. What shall I book on what time? Your response will surely be appreciated. Salamat po, Tito Tino (Florentino V. Lee)

Thanks Johanes! This is so informative. Just made a reservation online via PinoyTravel. It is so convenient. I will be travelling this August 24, 2018. 🙂

Enjoy your trip! 🙂

A good choice but stewardess not so helpful unlike victory liner de luxe. Should go around the bus more often and check comfort room if clean. Victory Liner have really clean comfort rooms on board

Alin ang mas mabilis na travel to baguio , Joy Bus or Victory Liner?

Halos pareho lang po sila. Pero pag gusto mo bumaba mas malapit sa town, better ang JoyBus 🙂

Is this by reservation only?

Hi! I was wondering if you knew the difference between the location of the Joybus Pasay and “new” Pasay terminals? I’m planning to book via iWantSeats but there are the Pasay and the “new” Pasay options and I’m not sure which is which or if they are the same one. Also, can you confirm the length of the trip say, if the trip starts from Pasay at 03:30? Thanks a lot! Love your blog!

Hi Faye, I don’t know what or where the ‘new’ Pasay terminal is. Sorry about that. If your trip starts from Pasay, it’ll be around 5 hours since the bus still stops at the Cubao terminal for a few minutes.

Wala pong student fare sa mga online booking, ano po kaya much better gawin?

Hi Diane, mukha wala silang discount for students/Senior Citizens if mag online ka.. Better, doon ka na mismo sa office ng JoyBus or call them first on their office before going there just to make sure lang.

May stop over ba sila going to baguio?

Wala po. Diretso po ang byahe 🙂

hi meron naman po this discount sa iwantseats..pero sa terminal mo na makukuha yung refund sa discount

As per Pinoy Travel “DISCOUNTS (20%) for Senior Citizen and PWD are reimbursed in cash at the bus terminal upon check in. Present relevant and valid ID. The bus company reserves the right to refuse issuance of the discount if in their judgement you are not a senior citizen or PWD, or not the person indicated in the valid ID

Hi! Please advise how early we are supposed to arrive at the terminal. I know we have to claim our ticket. Do you know if we can claim it the day before the trip? Thanks

1-2 hrs before your departure time, you can claim the ticket. Better be early than be late 🙂

Nagsasakay po ba kayo ng 7months pregnant? Just want to know po kung pwede kmi bumyahe going to baguio?

Hi, Can we choose the seat number po thru online? Or pagdating namin dun lng kami makakapili ng upuan first come first serve? Lima kasi kami 3 senior. Salamat po sa sagot. December 26 po ang departure nmin.

saan po terminal dito sa cubao? plan po namin pumunta ng jan 2..

saan po pwd mag buy ng tickets dito sa cubao? plan namin pumunta ng jan 2… thanks

Pwede po ba ang dog sa premier bus? Tnx po

Do they accept walk-ins at Cubao terminal?

Yes, they do.

Seems like there is no working contact number for Joy bus or genesis for inquiry, tried calling all the numbers posted, one number is ringing but no one is answering while the rest of the numbers could not be contacted. If you book online Pasay to Baguio, can you board the Joy bus parked at NAIA terminal 3 using the ticket booked online.

From what I know, I don’t think you can. You have to go to their Pasay terminal (it’s the nearest to the airport). But I’ll have to check this with Genesis. Thanks for asking.

can you board the Joy buses parked at NAIA terminal 3 using the ticket booked online for Pasay – Baguio booking.

I just messaged their Facebook Page and the reply I got was that they don’t have a NAIA3 to Baguio route. You have to board at their terminal in Pasay.

It seems the Joybus parked at NAIA3 is only going to Clark.

Thanks for the info Johan. This is very helpful. For those travelling with tight budget from outside manila through NAIA T3 and who are heading to Baguio. You can take the shuttle bus at T3 going to Baclaran, MRT Pasay which will cost you 20 pesos only (Taxi is around 100-150). The bus last stop is at the parking area of Joy Bus terminal in Pasay. Ask the guards if you are having difficulty locating the bus at T3.

Pwede ba magwalk in to purchase ticket or need online? Thanks in advance.

Pwede po walk in

Is there a baggage limit?

I don’t think there is

Hello Johanes,

Do you have info if this same JoyBus (Genesis) will be operating the new P2P Bus route NAIA/PITX to Baguio? Otherwise alin kayang bus company ang mag ooffer ng NAIA to Baguio?

Dear Johanes, Does JoyBus Premier De Luxe pick up passenger at NAIA1 going to Baguio at 12:00 Midnight Or we have to go to Pasay Joybus Terminal for booking? Salamt, Tito Tino

Hi Tito Tino, unfortunately the bus doesn’t pick up passengers at NAIA1. You have to go to the Pasay Terminal.

Hi! Mam.. tanong ko lang po ano oras byahe bus pasay to baguio kasi po dating ko sa airport terminal 3 1:30pm pa tanong kulang po ano oras sa hapon mka abot ako byahe punta baguio po, salamat

I also checked Pinoy Travel and all scheduled trips to Baguio are closed. I am planning of going to Baguio this May 2022, but I am unable to book to Joybus. Thanks.
