The new route to Tuguegarao will allow convenient travel to the economic center of the Cagayan Valley, not just from Metro Manila but from other points in PAL’s domestic and regional networks via Manila, the flag carrier said in a statement.
“We are looking forward to serving Tuguegarao and the people of Cagayan Province with convenient daily flights to and from Manila starting this October,” PAL president and chief operating officer Stanley Ng said.
“Philippine Airlines will help strengthen air connectivity to boost travel between the vibrant heart of the Cagayan Valley region and various Philippine tourist and business centers such as Cebu, Davao and Bacolod, as well as key Asian destinations such as Bangkok, Jakarta and Hong Kong,” Ng added.
From October 29, PAL’s Manila-Tuguegarao-Manila flights will operate daily with morning departures, as follows:
