Cebu Pacific Resumes More Direct Domestic Flights from Cebu and Davao

(18 Apr 2022, 12:22 +07)  Cebu Pacific has resumed more domestic flights from Cebu and Davao.

As the airline continues to ramp up its domestic route network, restoring 100% of its pre-pandemic capacity this summer, it is increasing flight options for travellers in Visayas-Mindanao so they can explore more destinations in Philippines without having to pass through Manila.

This month, the airline resumes direct flights to four new destinations from Cebu – Calbayog, Surigao, Puerto Princesa, and Legazpi, increasing the number of direct flights to 21 domestic destinations.

Moreover, flights to Cebu Pacific’s 18 other direct flights from Cebu have also increased, namely to Manila, Davao, Iloilo, Zamboanga, Coron, Boracay, Cagayan de Oro, Bacolod, Clark, General Santos, Siargao, Tacloban, Dumaguete, Pagadian, Butuan, Ozamis, Camiguin, and Dipolog.

The airline has also resumed four new direct flights from Davao. Flights to Bohol, Iloilo, and Zamboanga resumed this month; while Davao-Cagayan de Oro flights will resume in May.

The additional connections bring up Davao’s total number of domestic routes to six, including Davao-Manila which flies up to 8 times per day, and Davao-Cebu up to thrice daily.

“We are happy to keep enabling everyone to safely fly across our largest Philippine network. Cebu and Davao are very important for us as they serve as our main hubs in the Vis-Min area. We know that now is the perfect time for us to resume these direct flights while we see an increase in overall passenger confidence,” said Xander Lao, Chief Commercial Officer at Cebu Pacific. “We are positive that this expansion in routes and frequencies would further enable Cebuanos and Dabawenyos alike to fly to their favorite destinations in the country – whether to visit family and friends, or go on much-needed vacations over the summer season.”

Cebu Pacific continues to implement a multi-layered approach to safety, while it operates with a 100% fully vaccinated crew, 90% of whom have received their booster shots.
