Philippine Airlines (PAL) is linking Clark International Airport (CRK) to more international destinations such as Seoul, Busan, and Hong Kong.

PAL started operating on November 10 its Clark-Korea services with its four times a week flights from Clark to Busan. Its daily Clark-Seoul (Incheon) service begins today, November 11.

Hong Kong will be added to PAL’s Clark network next month, with the flag carrier mounting a thrice weekly seasonal service from Clark to Hong Kong starting on December 9.

“Clark is on the rise as Philippine Airlines forges new connections to the business and tourist markets of Hong Kong and Korea,” PAL president and chief operating officer Stanley Ng said in a statement.

“We are happy to mount international flights out of Clark International Airport, which will help bring greater flows of tourists and economic activity to the Central Luzon region and offer the convenience of nonstop flights to Hong Kong, Seoul and Busan for our passengers residing in the northern parts of the Philippines.”

Ng added that travelers will enjoy the spacious Clark New Terminal, the country’s latest world-class airport gateway.

For these flights, PAL will deploy the 199-seater Airbus A321CEO (current engine option) aircraft, which offers business class and economy class cabins.

The Clark-Hong Kong-Clark service from December 9 to 27, 2022; and January 3 to 14, 2023 will be every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday.

The Clark-Seoul (Incheon)-Clark service is a daily service while the Clark-Busan-Clark service is every Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday.

PAL currently flies between Manila and Seoul (Incheon) twice daily, as well as between Manila and Busan four times a week.

The flag carrier said it currently offers the largest network of international flights between the Philippines and 32 overseas destinations in North America, the Middle East, Australia and various Asian countries.

PAL also operates an extensive domestic network serving 30 destinations throughout the Philippines.
