Philippine Airlines, Inc. (PAL) has announced that it will resume nonstop flights between Manila and Dubai starting October 2.
The flag carrier suspended flights for two months due to airspace safety risks linked to the Middle East conflict.
PAL will initially operate four weekly flights between Manila and Dubai before gradually increasing frequencies to daily service as operational considerations allow.
The airline aims to strengthen connectivity for overseas Filipinos, business travelers, tourists, and cargo customers traveling between the Philippines and the United Arab Emirates.
PAL will offer a limited-time introductory all-in roundtrip fare starting at $650 to mark the resumption of nonstop Manila-Dubai flights.
The flights will operate with the following schedules: PR 658 will depart Manila every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday at 12:50 p.m. and arrive in Dubai at 6 p.m. on the same day.
The return flight, PR 659, will leave Dubai on the same days at 7:45 p.m. and arrive in Manila at 9:10 a.m. the following day.
