MANILA – Philippine Airlines (PAL) is set to make the enchanting island of Siargao more reachable than ever by introducing additional flight options from Clark and Cebu.

These new routes complement the existing Manila-Siargao service, boosting connectivity for travelers eager to explore the beloved tropical paradise.

Strategically located, Clark International Airport serves as a convenient gateway for most Luzon residents, making it an optimal choice for travelers.

Those in Metro Manila can easily access the airport through various transport options, ensuring a hassle-free journey.

Moreover, passengers can opt for a Manila-Cebu flight, seamlessly transferring to Siargao.

With Cebu’s swift and efficient layover processes, this route presents a practical alternative for reaching the island, offering travelers a wider array of choices to suit their travel needs.

Cebu, a bustling hub for business and tourism, attracts visitors from neighboring islands and provinces.

The new PAL Cebu-Siargao route is particularly designed for those seeking quick access to the island’s famed surf breaks, stunning natural landscapes, and vibrant local culture — perfect for spontaneous weekend escapes or extended vacations.

“Granting Siargao alternative air connections via Clark and Cebu addresses the appeal for air access and encourages local tourism and economic activity,” said PAL Express President Rabbi Ang.

“We are happy to play a leading role in the steady development of Siargao, wherein both the visitors and the residents will prosper due to expanded air transport opportunities,” he added.

PAL will continue to operate direct flights from Manila to Siargao, catering to both residents and tourists in the capital, as well as those connecting from international flights.

The Manila-Siargao route remains a vital service for PAL, ensuring that travelers from around the globe can easily access the Philippines’ renowned island haven.

For those booking now, special one-way economy class fares start as low as P4,388.

With a steadfast commitment to safety and award-winning service, PAL ensures that travelers flying to Siargao from Manila, Clark, or Cebu enjoy spacious seating, smooth boarding, and in-flight service that exemplifies the warmth of Filipino hospitality.

Booking is a breeze through PAL’s website and mobile app, which offer real-time tracking and dedicated customer service channels to assist passengers throughout their journey.
