PH leading airline expands network in Visayas, Mindanao; opens 5 new route

Cebu Pacific offers its lowest all-in one way year-round fare from Cebu to Masbate at P1,758; from Cagayan de Oro to Zamboanga at P1,906; from Davao to Dumaguete at P2,590 and Davao to Tacloban at P2,142; and Zamboanga to Cotabato at P1,806.

PHILIPPPINE Stock Exchange (PSE)-listed Cebu Pacific (CEB), Philippines’ leading airline, added five new routes to its inter-regional network, connecting more islands from Mindanao to Visayas to the rest of the archipelago.

The new routes stem from requests from stakeholders, particularly in Mindanao, to improve connectivity of key cities, according to a new release reaching the DayBreak.

CEB wholly-owned subsidiary Cebgo will fly three times weekly (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) between Cebu and Masbate, Davao and Dumaguete, and Zamboanga and Cotabato starting July 26, 2017.

The report said Cebgo will also begin flying four times a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Saturday) between Cagayan de Oro and Zamboanga, and Davao and Tacloban on July 27, 2017. The new routes will be serviced by the Cebgo fleet of ATR aircraft.

Mr. Alexander Lao, president and CEO of Cebgo, said: “Cebu Pacific is very pleased to continue to help promote domestic and international tourism and a logistics enabler to move goods across the country."

Lao said: "As we expand into new routes and destinations across the Philippine archipelago, we are committed to being a partner in spurring trade and tourism; helping pump-prime the local economy and providing everyJuan with more travel options with year-round affordable fares."

Aside from its Cebu and Davao hubs, CEB also operates flights out of four other strategically placed hubs in the country: Manila, Clark, Kalibo, and Iloilo. CEB enhances inter-island connectivity within the country and across the globe with its 66 destinations with over 100 routes, spanning Asia, Australia, the Middle East, and USA.
