Cebu Pacific | Dubai - Manila

Meanwhile, low-cost carrier Cebu Pacific told Gulf News that it has started operating flights on the Dubai-Manila route this month. The airline will connect Dubai with Manila, Cebu and Davao.

The planned schedule:

• Dubai-Manila - Monday & Wednesday
• Dubai-Cebu - Sunday & Tuesday
• Dubai-Davao - Thursday, Friday & Saturday
• Manila-Dubai - Daily

It remains to be seen if these flights will get the green-light from the concerned authorities. “We are appealing to the Philippine authorities to consider allowing more international arrivals, so we may be able to accommodate more passengers, especially now that many Filipinos are wanting to come home for the holidays,” said an airline spokesperson.

“We are hopeful that the Philippine and Dubai authorities will reach a positive stage that will enable Philippine carriers to maximize their flight operations to and from Dubai for the convenience and safety of passengers, at a time when traveling is challenging given the pandemic.”
