“The decision clears the way for Philippine Airlines to resume service between Manila and Taipei after operational arrangements can be finalized and secured,” PAL said in a statement posted on its Facebook page.
Because of this, PAL said it is resuming its flights to and from Taipei Taoyuan International Airport starting Feb. 21.
PAL said the schedule of the initial flights is as follows:
- PR890/891 Manila-Taipei-Manila
----- Every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday (21 Feb. to 29 Feb.)
----- Daily (from 01 March 2020)
- PR890 to depart Manila at 6:05 a.m. and arrive in Taipei at 8:30 a.m.
- PR891 to depart Taipei at 9:30 a.m. and arrive in Manila at 11:40 a.m.
“From 29 March 2020 onwards, our standard regular schedule of twice daily flights (PR890/891 and PR894/895) is still in effect,” PAL said. “Passengers originally confirmed on cancelled MNL-TPE and TPE-MNL flights now have the opportunity to book on the restored PR890 and PR891 flight.”
PAL said those who purchased tickets on its website may contact the PAL contact center, while, those who purchased tickets through its ticket offices may visit again.
On the other hand, PAL advised those who purchased tickets through travel agencies to contact their respective travel agents for rebooking.
