Cebu Pacific’s Cebgo flights will transfer from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 4 to Terminal 2 beginning Nov. 7, the company announced on Friday, Oct. 11.
The budget airline announced that the terminal reassignment would affect Cebgo’s domestic flights to Coron, Palawan; Naga, Camarines Sur; Masbate City, Masbate; San Jose, Occidental Mindoro; Siargao, Surigao del Norte; Surigao City; as well as to Boracay, Aklan; Cebu; and Legazpi in the Bicol region.
Cebu Pacific 5J flights, meanwhile, will remain at Terminal 3.
To clarify, CEB or Cebu Pacific Air Inc is the corporate name of Cebu Pacific Air.
DG is the airline code for all Cebgo flights, while 5J is the airline code for Cebu Pacific’s domestic and international flights.
Cebgo used to be Tigerair Philippines, which the Gokongweis – owner of Cebu Pacific – fully acquired in 2014.
Cebgo Inc. is a subsidiary of Cebu Pacific and is a regional brand offering domestic flights. As of end 2023, it had 14 passenger aircraft that are ATR (European aircraft manufacturer) turboprop.
Aside from the NAIA, Cebu Pacific also operates from Mactan, Cebu in Central Visayas, and Clark, Pampanga in Central Luzon.
Terminal 4 is the country’s oldest terminal and has no jet bridges. It handles only domestic turboprop flights.
NAIA Terminal 2, on the other hand, was opened in 1999 and was for a long time exclusively used by Philippine Airlines. It is much bigger than Terminal 4, serves many airlines, and has jet bridges.
Terminal reassignments are part of the changes being done by the new operator of the airport, the New NAIA Infrastructure Corp. (NNIC) whose principal stockholder is the San Miguel Corp.
NNIC assumed control of NAIA last Sept. 14.
Meantime, AirSWIFT Airlines, which was very recently acquired by Cebu Pacific from the Ayala Group, will also move to NAIA Terminal 2 from NAIA Terminal 4, starting November 5.
Passengers will get revised e-tickets reflecting the terminal change, the airline said.
AirSWIFT is the only airline that has direct flights from Manila to El Nido in Palawan. It also has flights from Manila to Boracay, Aklan; Romblon; and Cebu.
