Cebu Pacific has unveiled plans to resume direct
flights between the popular holiday destination of Mactan in Cebu,
Philippines and Seoul (Incheon), South Korea.
Starting 3 July, the airline will operate twice weekly
flights between the two cities, every Thursday and Sunday.
“We look forward to welcoming South Koreans and
their families to plan their travels to warm Cebu and rediscover
what it has to offer – from diving spots to sandbars, to
canyoneering activities, to feasting on lechon and mangoes,” said
CEB Chief Commercial Officer Xander Lao. “This route resumption
also enables fellow Filipinos working or residing in Seoul to
conveniently fly direct to Cebu.”

Cebu Pacific also flies from Manila to Seoul every Tuesday,
Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, increasing the service to daily
from 1
June.
South Korean nationals are allowed to enter
Philippines without a visa for a period of 30 days.
Travelers flying to Philippines who have
received the two-dose series or single-dose vaccine (Janssen), and
at least 1 booster shot, are no longer required to present
COVID19 test results for entry, according to the Inter Agency
Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases
(IATF-EID).
However, those without booster shots will still
need to show their negative test results prior to boarding (RT-PCR
test taken 48 hours before departure or antigen test taken 24
hours before departure).
Cebu Pacific is currently operating flights to 22 domestic
destinations from Cebu, namely:
Bacolod, Boracay, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Calbayog, Camiguin,
Clark, Coron, Davao, Dipolog, Dumaguete, General Santos, Iloilo,
Legazpi, Manila, Ozamiz, Pagadian, Puerto Princesa, Siargao,
Surigao, Tacloban and Zamboanga.
