Cebu Pacific boosts international flights

Cebu Pacific, the country’s leading airline, continues to boost its international network as it adds flights to some of its top ASEAN destinations, namely Bangkok and Bali.

Beginning Aug. 29, 2022, CEB will fly daily from Manila to Bangkok, coming from its current five-times-a-week frequency. By September, flights from Manila to Bali will also increase from thrice to five times weekly.

The airline also intends to restart its Manila-Brunei flights by Sept. 1, starting with a twice-weekly frequency.

“We are happy to keep growing our international network as we see an increasing demand for travel abroad, and as more destinations ease restrictions. It is exciting and encouraging to see more Filipinos travelling confidently in and out the Philippines, that is why we make sure we consistently provide convenient and affordable flight options to enable everyJuan to travel more for less,” said Xander Lao, CEB chief commercial officer.

Fully vaccinated Filipinos flying to these three destinations are only required to present their proof of complete vaccination as Thailand and Indonesia have already eased its restrictions to easily allow tourists to enter.

Apart from this, the airline also intends to increase its flights from Cebu to Seoul from twice weekly to a daily service by Sept. 9. On Sept. 23, flights to Nagoya from Manila will be daily from its current five times weekly.

By Oct. 1, CEB’s Bali flights will increase to a daily service, while its flights to Hanoi and Taipei from Manila will both have one additional flight per week – from thrice to four-times-a-week for Hanoi, and twice to thrice weekly for Taipei.

Coming home, boosted Filipinos no longer need to take a COVID test pre-departure. For more information, passengers may refer to CEB travel reminders page for the latest updates and complete travel guidelines to their destination.

CEB continues to offer its guaranteed low fares to stimulate travel across its widest domestic network in the Philippines. It continues to implement a multi-layered approach to safety, while it operates with a 100 percent fully vaccinated crew, 95 percent of whom have been boosted.
