Cebu Pacific will launch daily flights from Clark International Airport to El Nido and Coron starting March 30, 2025.

The new routes are part of the carrier’s strategic relocation of select flights from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) to neighboring airports, following directives from the Manila Slot Coordination Committee of the Department of Transportation to address congestion at the capital’s main gateway.

Along with the Palawan routes, Cebu Pacific will transfer its Cebgo-operated flights to Masbate and Siargao from NAIA Terminal 2 to Clark International Airport. These additions will bring the airline’s total destinations served from Clark to 15, encompassing both domestic and international routes.

“Cebu Pacific is proud to position our Clark hub as a premier gateway to the Philippines’ most iconic destinations. With its growing network, Clark has become the ideal entry point for travelers seeking to explore the vibrant cities, breathtaking landscapes, and rich cultural heritage our country has to offer,” said Xander Lao, President and Chief Commercial Officer of Cebu Pacific.

“We are committed to making travel more accessible, convenient, and memorable, ensuring every Juan can discover the unparalleled beauty of the Philippines.”

The expansion particularly benefits travelers from the Greater Manila Area and North and Central Luzon regions as it provides more convenient access to Palawan’s renowned tourism destinations.

Both El Nido and Coron are celebrated for their white sand beaches, marine biodiversity, and water-based recreational activities.
