Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL) is set to launch its newest Cebu-Calbayog route on October 26, 2025, with flights operating four times weekly every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday.
“The launch of our Cebu-Calbayog route is a milestone in our mission to empower regional gateways like Cebu,” said PAL express President Rabbi Vincent Ang. “This new service will provide travelers from Eastern Visayas direct access to Visayas and Mindanao, enhancing connectivity and convenience. We’re investing in Cebu as a strategic hub to help drive tourism and economic growth across the region.”
PAL will also add more flights to two of the country’s most sought-after island destinations.
Cebu-Siargao and Cebu-Busuanga (Coron) are increasing its flights to thrice daily each. These expanded services allow travelers to reach these tropical gateways without flying through Manila, making vacations smoother and more convenient.
Moreover, the flag carrier is ramping up its operations with increased frequencies to the following routes:
• Cebu-Bacolod: From 14 to 18 flights weekly
• Cebu-Butuan: From 7 to 11 flights weekly
• Cebu-Cotabato: From 2 to 3 flights weekly
• Cebu-Ozamiz: From 3 to 4 flights weekly
• Cebu-Tacloban: From 11 to 14 flights weekly
These enhancements reflect PAL’s commitment to boosting connectivity and positioning Cebu as a true gateway to the Visayas, Mindanao, and beyond.
Regionally, PAL flies to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Seoul (Incheon), Tokyo (Narita) and Osaka (Kansai) from Mactan, Cebu.
