Cebu Pacific opens Clark-Narita, two other routes

August 9, 2019

Cebu Pacific inaugurated three new direct local and international routes, namely, the Clark-Bacolod route, Clark-Iloilo route, and the first-ever Clark-Narita, Japan route.

Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade joined Cebu Pacific President and CEO Lance Gokongwei in leading the launching ceremony Friday.

"Today, we are all happy because we are commemorating three flights: Iloilo, Bacolod and Narita. These are the places as the city of love, city of smiles and the city of business,'' said Tugade.

''Today's inauguration is a game changer, as so far as Clark is concerned," Tugade said.

These new direct air services will harness the potential of Clark as the next investment center of Asia.

"With the direct connection between Clark and another large metropolis, Tokyo, it will enable easier access for tourist, investors and, most importantly, the Filipino workers and migrants from Japan, to come home more easily. With the expansion of our domestic route network from Clark, it will be easier to visit Visayas and Mindanao. We are committed to expanding our Clark hub. Clark can able to give everyone more travel options," Gokongwei said.

Flights between Clark and Narita will run four times every week, from Monday, Wednesday, Friday to Sunday. DMS
