Spirit of Manila Airlines now flies to Taipei
MANILA, Philippines - The country’s newest carrier, Spirit of Manila Airlines, is now operating thrice weekly to Taipei following the inauguration last month of the expanded international terminal at the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport in Clark, Pampanga.
The first Philippine airline to fly to Taipei out of Clark said its timely expansion of more direct flights would have a positive impact in the China-Taiwan market, and would provide better service to passengers from Central and Northern Luzon. This is because they need not go to NAIA airport for direct flights to Taipei and vice versa.
“We are optimistic that upgraded airport facilities in Clark will equate to better load capacity or passengers,” Spirit of Manila Airlines Corp. vice president for external affairs Johnny Ramos said.
The airline has been intensively operating gateway-to-gateway scheduled passenger services to develop the Philippines (via Clark) and Taiwan route since early January this year.
At the same time, charter flights from Taipei to Kalibo are also being developed for the mutual benefit of RP-Taiwan tourism industry.
