LAOAG CITY—To accommodate more passengers in this northern gateway of Luzon, the Philippine Airlines (PAL) added two Laoag to manila flights per week.

Previously, there were 10 PAL weekly flights.

The Ilocos Norte tourism office led Aian Raquel confirmed this on as he announced “Tuesdays and Thursdays will now have additional evening flights at 8:45PM.” These additional flight schedules are effective this November until March 2020.

For the information of passengers, the Manila-Laoag flights are the following: Monday, 7:05PM; Tuesday, 11:30AM and 7:05PM; Wednesday, 7:05PM; Thursday, 11:30AM and 7:05PM; Friday, 11:30AM and 7:05PM; Saturday, 11:30AM and 7:05PM; Sunday, 11:30AM and 7:05PM.

The Philippine Airlines is the only airline servicing Laoag-bound passengers after the Philippines budget airline Cebu Pacific suspended flights to Laoag on January 2017.

Until now, the budget airline has not resumed flights to Laoag even if there is a reported increase in air traffic during the holiday season.

PAL, on the other hand, has increased its airbuses and arranged daily flights to Laoag, offering greater convenience to connecting passengers mostly from Hawaii and mainland USA.
