Cebu Pacific is all set to increase its Hong Kong capacity to 28 times per week and expects demand for the route to go up with a seat sale ongoing. With this, the airline will almost quadruple its Hong Kong capacity as the government plans to relax the pandemic protocols.
Upon check-in, travellers must present a negative result from an antigen test within 24 hours and a proof of vaccination of primary doses for non-residents of Hong Kong. Upon arrival, they must take a self-arranged test every day until the fifth day, removing the prior requirement of taking a quarantine for at least three to five days.
Candice Iyog, Cebu Pacific Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer, said: "We are excited to welcome more passengers onboard, especially now that we are back to easier times. We are proud to announce that Cebu Pacific has emerged stronger after nearly three years of pandemic, and that we are ready to give our customers a better flying experience. And so, we confidently say— ‘Let’s Fly, Every Juan."
Going ahead, the airline plans to restore direct flights to Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Xiamen within the first quarter of 2023. Besides the airline will also resume its operations to Macau with thrice weekly flights.
By March 2023, Cebu Pacific is planning to recover 100% of its pre-pandemic network made up of 34 domestic destinations and 25 international routes.
