Clark International Airport Poised for Growth in 2023 with New Flights from Major Airlines

Clark International Airport Poised for Growth in 2023 with New Flights from Major Airlines.

International Airport (CRK) is set to welcome more flights this year, with several airlines announcing new routes from the airport. The new flights are expected to boost tourism and decongest the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).

Cebu Pacific Air (CEB) is the biggest carrier to announce new flights from CRK. The airline will be adding 13 new routes to its network, including flights to Bacolod, Boracay, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Davao, General Santos, Iloilo, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Singapore, Macau, and Narita. CEB will also be basing three of its aircraft at CRK.

Philippine Airlines (PAL) has also added new flights from CRK, the airline reopened its flights to Caticlan (Boracay) and Busuanga (Coron). PAL operates these flights thrice weekly and four times on a weekly basis, respectively.

Moreover, Eva Air has started up additional flights from CRK. On March 30, 2023, the Taiwanese airline began running daily nonstop flights between Taipei and CRK.

The additional flights from CRK are anticipated to increase Philippine tourism. Subic Bay, Angeles City, and Mount Pinatubo are just a few of the well-known tourist attractions close to Clark. The airport is a viable alternative for passengers who want to avoid the traffic at NAIA because it is situated an hour’s drive from Manila.

The new flights should aid in clearing up traffic at NAIA. Although NAIA is one of Southeast Asia’s biggest airports, it is also one of the most crowded. Travelers will have another choice for traveling to and from the Philippines thanks to the new routes from CRK.

The addition of new flights from CRK is a positive development for the Philippine aviation industry. The new flights will provide travelers with more options and help to boost tourism in the Philippines.
