Philippine Airlines said Monday it expanded its codeshare agreement with China Airlines to serve the growing travel demand between the Philippines and Taiwan.
The expanded codeshare arrangement allows PAL and China Airlines to offer greater connectivity and convenience to customers, with each carrier promoting the development of the air travel market between the two territories.
“Philippine Airlines is keen to serve the growing demand for travel stimulated by the continuing visa-free arrangement for Filipino travel to Taiwan. We will build on our strong partnership with China Airlines to offer more convenient access for Filipino tourists to visit Taiwan, even as we welcome Taiwanese tourists to come and visit the fun and festive Philippines,” said PAL vice president for sales Bud Britanico,
“Cebu is a great destination for both business and leisure, while Kaohsiung is a dynamic port city and economic hub that also houses many Overseas Filipino Workers. We are glad to expand our network, even as we continue to offer regular twice daily flights between Manila and Taipei,” he said.
PAL is now offering four times weekly codeshared services between Manila and Kaohsiung and five times weekly Cebu to Taipei fights.
