“We are happy to be the first domestic flight to operate in the newly opened terminal, another first for us since we conducted a simulation flight for the Clark-Cebu route in December 2021. The new terminal will further enhance customer journeys with its state-of-the-art contactless solutions, aligned with CEB’s mission to provide safe and convenient travel for all,” said Michael Ivan Shau, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer at Cebu Pacific.

Cebu Pacific started operating the Clark-Cebu route in 2006 and pre-pandemic was serving direct flights from Clark to six other domestic destinations apart from Cebu, namely Bacolod, Bohol, Boracay, Davao, Iloilo, and Puerto Princesa.

The airline also flew to four international destinations then: Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, and Tokyo (Narita).

Currently, Cebu Pacific flies daily between Clark and Cebu.

“As more borders open and leisure travel becomes available, we look forward to ramping up our network in this key hub to address the anticipated demand,” Shau added.
