Cebu Pacific (PSE: CEB), the Philippines’ leading carrier, relaunches its Laoag-Manila route today, May 22, 2023, offering great values to passengers through the airline’s affordable fares and stronger connectivity to and from north Luzon.
Starting today, CEB will fly daily between Laoag and Manila, making it the 35th destination in the airline’s widest domestic network.
With CEB’s newest route, traveling around the Philippines from Laoag has now become much easier, with the airline flying directly to 29 other local destinations from Ninoy Aquino International Airport including Bacolod, Boracay, Cagayan De Oro, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, and Zamboanga.
Travelers from Ilocos Region can now also conveniently connect to 23 destinations across the airline’s international network from Manila, such as Bangkok, Dubai, Hong Kong, Melbourne, Narita, Singapore, Sydney, and Taipei.
“We are excited to fly again to Laoag as we continue to grow our domestic network and provide accessible and affordable air travel to every Juan. The relaunch of this route will also strengthen Laoag’s position as a leading tourism and cultural hub in north Luzon,” said Xander Lao, Cebu Pacific President and Chief Commercial Officer.
The provincial government of Ilocos Norte lauded CEB’s initiatives to boost the province’s tourism industry and encourage more people to travel to Laoag and rest of the Ilocos Region.
“We are thrilled to welcome back Cebu Pacific to our province, as this signals a renewed hope for our tourism industry. We hope that more airlines will follow suit, as we continue to work together to revitalize our economy and bring back the vibrancy of Ilocos Norte’s tourism sector,” said Ilocos Norte Gov. Matthew Marcos Manotoc.
CEB is firmly in place for full recovery and is set to exceed its pre-COVID network and capacity, aided by its seat sales, widest domestic network, and reinstatement of its international destinations.
