Cebu Pacific beefs up international network
Budget carrier Cebu Pacific (CEB) on Friday announced the resumption of its Manila-Brunei flight after a two-year hiatus.
CEB intends to restart its flight between Manila and Brunei on July 23, 2022 (Thursday), beginning with a twice weekly frequency every Thursday and Saturday bringing its total restored international destinations to 18.
"We are delighted to keep boosting our international flight frequencies as we continuously see strong demand for air travel. We are especially happy to bring this route back after a two-year hiatus as we know many of our kababayans are looking forward to visiting their family and friends - whether in Brunei, or back home in the Philippines," said Xander Lao, CEB Chief Commercial Officer.
Flight 5J409 is scheduled to depart Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 at 7:10 p.m., and is set to arrive at Brunei International Airport by 9:40 p.m. Its return flight, 5J410, is scheduled to leave Brunei at 10:30 p.m., and arrive in Manila at 12:30 a.m. the following day.
The airline said travelers looking to visit a unique country may consider Brunei for its many activities meant to recharge the soul - be it through hiking, ATV rides, water sports, or a wellness spa experience.
Visitors will also be able to see various art in public spaces which show a glimpse of Brunei's culture and history through the eyes of its local young artists.
Fully vaccinated Filipinos flying to Brunei are only required to present their proof of complete vaccination, along with an e-health arrival declaration form which must be filled out not more than 24 hours before departure as well as a certificate of Travel Medical Insurance with Covid-19 coverage (minimum coverage of BND 20.000) also must be presented upon check-in.
The airline added that returning Filipinos who already have booster may no longer need to take a Covid test pre-departure. Passengers may refer to CEB Travel reminders page for the latest updates and complete travel guidelines to their destination.
