There are no direct Jeepney services that serve Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB), to or via Robinsons Galleria Cebu, SM City Cebu, Fuente Osmeña Circle, Mango Sqaure, Ayala Center-Mall and Terraces, Downtown Cebu City, Uptown Cebu City and Talisay City. There are indirect Jeepney services, on average you would be expected to change 2 to 3 times to Cebu City or vice versa, depending on your location or route. Very few international tourists will ride a Jeepney for Airport Transfer from Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB) to Cebu City, simply because there not familiar with the complex Jeepney network and interchanging Brgy (village) or stops
There is just one reliable Jeepney Service Number MI-05A, serving Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB) for shorter routes and all stops towards Cebu-Mactan Ferry Terminal

However unless your destination is very near it’s not worth the hassle or effort for tourists, not to mention the inconvenience, extended journey time, space for luggage, or comfort, considering MyBus and Sugbo offer frequent bus services to or from Cebu City, directly outside Terminal 1 and 2 with modern seating and air-con at cheap prices (not 24 hours), therefore it’s far less appealing to ride a Jeepney from or to Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB)
