Philippine Airlines (PAL), in partnership with Guide to the Philippines, now offers affordable “Easy Escapes” travel packages to key domestic destinations.
Guide to the Philippines, a Department of Tourism- accredited online travel platform, brings together local travel experts and top tour, transport, and accommodation operators.
The platform provider partnered with the flag carrier to put together safe travel offers under the new normal.
“Easy Escapes”, a three-day, two-night stay in Boracay for P8,555 per person based on a twin-occupancy room, will run from December 4 to 31, 2020.
Travel period is from December 11, 2020 to March 31, 2021.
The package includes a round trip economy all-in fare to Caticlan from Manila, transfers, and hotel accommodation.
PAL flies from Manila to Caticlan (and vice versa) daily, with two flights every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, and will increase to twice daily flights beginning Friday, next week, December 18.
As required by the local government of Boracay, travelers must present a negative RT-PCR test result taken within 72 hours prior to arrival in the island.
Easy Escapes offers an optional RT-PCR Test add-on with a special rate and guaranteed release of test results within 24 to 48 hours to provide a safe and seamless travel experience.
Travelers who test positive will be given a 100% refund of the package booked.
The “Easy Escapes” promotion aims to revive inter-island leisure travel through safe, affordable one-stop-shop travel packages.
The Department of Tourism accredited PAL's offering in conjunction with government’s efforts to promote safe travel under the new normal.
The flag carrier recently earned a Top Ten ranking among the world’s safest airlines for its COVID safety protocol named “New Normal, Same Heart” which includes the use of PersonalProtective Equipment (PPE) by cabin crew, a high-tech cabin system that refreshes cabin air and uses High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters, and a safety-related modification to inflight food services and amenities.
