Divinagracia Virata and Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines director general Jim Sydiongco cut the ribbon for the inaugural flight of PAL Express between the Clark International Airport and the Evelio Javier Airport or the Antique Airport. 

“This new route empowers Antiqueños to fly straight to the heart of Central Luzon,” said PAL vice president for corporate communications Josen Perez de Tagle.  

The new twice weekly PAL service between Clark and Antique is operated with brand-new 86-seater Bombardier Next Generation Q400 aircraft.

Through the new route, PAL hopes to promote Antique’s tourist attractions, including the Binirayan festival, scuba diving, medical hot springs at Sira-an, Sibalom Natural Park, the making of muscovado sugar in Patnongon and Laua-an, Bugtong Bato Falls and many more.

The PAL Next-Generation Q400 aircraft—fitted with six Economy Plus premium seats and 80 regular Economy seats—has the quietest and most spacious cabin of its kind. Produced by Canadian aircraft maker Bombardier, the Q400 NG flies faster and more comfortably than other island-hopping airplanes, with a baggage hold big enough to accommodate surfboards.
