Low-cost carrier Cebu Pacific continues to ramp up its domestic route network, as it resumes more direct local flights from Cebu and Davao.
The airline said that as it restores 100% of its pre-pandemic domestic capacity this summer season, it will add more flights for its passengers in Visayas-Mindanao to enable them to explore more local destinations without having to pass through Manila.
“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,” Cebu Pacific chief commercial officer Xander Lao said in a statement.
This month, the airline resumes direct flights from Cebu to four new destinations – Calbayog, Surigao, Puerto Princesa, and Legazpi.
With these additions, the airline now operates direct flights from Cebu to a total of 22 domestic destinations.
Previously, Cebu Pacific operated 18 other direct flights from Cebu to other destinations to service more Cebuanos.
These destinations are Manila, Davao, Iloilo, Zamboanga, Coron, Boracay, Cagayan de Oro, Bacolod, Clark, General Santos, Siargao, Tacloban, Dumaguete, Pagadian, Butuan, Ozamis, Camiguin, and Dipolog.
On top of this, the airline also resumed four new direct flights from Davao.
Flights to Bohol, Iloilo, and Zamboanga resumed this month while a Davao-Cagayan de Oro flight will resume in May, said Lao.
These additional connections takes the hub’s total routes to six, including its Davao-Manila route, which flies up to eight times daily, and the Davao-Cebu route, with up to three times daily.
Cebu Pacific’s domestic network currently covers 33 destinations, on top of its 14 international destinations. It has a fleet of 74 aircraft, which includes two dedicated ATR freighters.
