Cebu Pacific Air, the
country’s biggest budget airline, is increasing flight frequencies to
the Visayas, the company said Friday in a statement.
Specifically, it will add more flights to Bacolod, Cebu and Roxas by the fourth quarter of 2014.
From Oct. 9 to Dec. 3,
passengers may choose from 13 weekly flights (up from 7) between Manila
and Roxas, and from 128 weekly flights (up from 114) between Manila and
Cebu.
Those with plans to travel between Manila and Bacolod can choose from 49 weekly flights (up from 42), from Oct. 26 to Dec. 3.
Cebu Pacific continues to
study “opportunities to stimulate travel to and from the Visayas,” said
Candice Iyog, Cebu Pacific vice president for marketing and
distribution. “We believe that air travel brings convenient
accessibility not just for the tourism sector, but also for the business
sector.”
Aside from Bacolod, Cebu
and Roxas, the budget airline operates flights to 31 other domestic and
28 international destinations. In the Visayas, it also flies to
Caticlan, Dumaguete, Kalibo, Iloilo, Tacloban and Tagbilaran.
Cebu Pacific’s 51-strong fleet is comprised of 10 Airbus A319, 28 Airbus A320, five Airbus A330 and eight ATR-72 500 aircraft.
Between 2014 and 2021,
Cebu Pacific will take delivery of 11 more brand new Airbus A320, 30
Airbus A321neo and one Airbus A330 aircraft.
