Philippine Airlines (PAL) will introduce flights between Manila and Da Nang, Vietnam beginning July 1, 2025 with an initial schedule of three flights per week.
The route is the third major expansion move in Vietnam this year for PAL, the first Asian airline to open regular flights to Vietnam in September 1986.
PAL recently upgraded its Manila-Hanoi-Manila route to a daily service, and will launch flights between Cebu and Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) starting on May 2.
“We at Philippine Airlines are excited to strengthen our close relationship with the Vietnamese people with the introduction of direct Manila-Da Nang flights,” PAL president and chief operating officer Capt. Stanley K. Ng said in a statement.
“PAL is committed to offering greater connectivity and promoting tourism and commerce between our capital city and the central Vietnamese heartland. We look forward to welcoming more leisure and business travelers onboard our flights to Da Nang,” Ng added.
Da Nang offers a mix of rich history, picturesque beaches, and modern attractions. It is a lively coastal city situated close to renowned landmarks like the Marble Mountains and Golden Bridge. Da Nang is also an accessible gateway to several UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the Old Town of Hoi An, the archeological ruins of My Son and the fabled Imperial City of Hue.
As the Philippines’ only full-service network airline, PAL said it will give travelers daytime flights for greater convenience to maximize their time in Da Nang, along with a choice of business class and economy class services.
PAL’s Manila-Da Nang flights depart from Ninoy Aquino International Airport every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, deploying Airbus A321 jetliners that accommodate up to 199 passengers.
In addition to the new PAL Manila-Da Nang, Cebu-Ho Chi Minh City routes and the daily Manila-Hanoi services, PAL also operates eight weekly flights between Manila and Ho Chi Minh City.
