Flag carrier Philippine Airlines on Saturday announced it will temporarily suspend flights to and from Abu Dhabi (PR-656 and PR-657) effective July 8 this year.
PAL management officials said they reached the decision to cancel the flights due to route assessment initiatives.
“PAL is seeking the kind understanding of affected passengers as the airline implements these operational adjustments,” PAL said in a statement.
Passengers who already booked their flight for July 8 onward may refund their tickets or rebook their flight to a Manila-Dubai route and be transported by PAL-arranged or assisted bus from Dubai to Abu Dhabi and vice versa.
“Affected passengers are advised to avail of any of these options within 30 days from original flight dates, with rebooking/refunding charges waived. PAL will also communicate with affected passengers via email notification and call-out,” the airline said.
Passengers may also call PAL hotline (02) 855-8888, visit their website, or visit their nearest ticketing office or partner travel agent for further information.
