CEBU CITY, PHILIPPINES — Philippines’ budget airline operator Cebu Pacific strengthens its footprint in the Visayas and Mindanao as it adds more flights from its Davao and Cebu hubs, effective November 2022. This totals a 35% increase in the airline’s non-Manila flight network.
On October 30 and 31, respectively, CEB will be resuming its direct flights from Davao to Cagayan de Oro and Bacolod, allowing Juans in Mindanao to connect easily to more places across the country. Davao-Bacolod will be operating 3x weekly, every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, while Davao-Cagayan de Oro will be at 4x weekly every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.
These additional flights bring the total number of domestic connections from Davao to seven (7), which includes direct flights to Bohol, Cebu, Iloilo, Manila, and Zamboanga.
The airline will also be restarting its first international flight from Davao on October 30 as it will fly passengers direct to Singapore. CEB is the first local airline to bring back direct international operations in Davao.
CEB also continues to boost its connections from its Cebu hub as it expects to add more flights to key domestic destinations in November. This includes flights to Bacolod, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Iloilo, General Santos, and Puerto Princesa, among others.
CEB currently flies direct to 22 domestic destinations from Cebu, and two (2) international, namely Singapore and Seoul (Incheon).
“We are very happy to share this good news as we continuously see sustained confidence among the traveling public. As we approach the holiday season, we expect more people wanting to fly and come back home; thus, we made sure we are more than ready with additional flight connections,” said Xander Lao, CEB Chief Commercial Officer.
