Manila, Philippines, 24 April 2025 – 2GO, the country’s premier sea travel and logistics solutions provider, has formally partnered with FastCat to launch BiyaheConnect—a seamless travel service that integrates FastCat’s fast ferry routes with 2GO Travel’s long-haul voyages. This initiative enhances inter-island connectivity, allowing passengers to efficiently plan their journeys across more destinations via major ports in Batangas, Caticlan, Cebu, and Dumaguete.
BiyaheConnect stands as a testament to the synergy between FastCat and 2GO Travel, reinforcing their shared commitment to improving mobility and convenience for travelers exploring the Philippine islands. This strategic collaboration offers a more efficient and streamlined sea travel experience, expanding access to a broader range of destinations.
“We are excited to partner with FastCat to strengthen 2GO Travel’s network and improve sea travel connectivity across the Philippines,” said Blessie Cruz, 2GO Retail Business Unit Head. “FastCat passengers can now enjoy 2GO’s elevated, cruise-like experience for longer journeys, while benefiting from a smoother transition between services. This partnership makes inter-island travel more convenient and accessible.”
Mary Ann Pastrana, FastCat Executive Vice President, shared, “We no longer view each other as competitors in the same market. We are co-navigators in a shared mission—to unify our islands, make our services more accessible, and amplify our impact on the lives of the Filipino people. Together, we create synergies that strengthen both our companies and, more importantly, bring greater value and convenience to the very people we exist to serve.”
With BiyaheConnect, FastCat retail outlets now offer 2GO tickets, giving passengers expanded travel options to destinations beyond FastCat’s current network.
