Singapore-based budget airline Jetstar Asia on Thursday announced the resumption of direct flights between Singapore and Clark starting 16 June this year.
John Simeone, Jetstar Asia chief executive, said the flights reinforce Jetstar Asia’s commitment to expand its Southeast Asian network and provide enhanced connectivity and range of travel options for its customers.
“Our services at Clark are backed by popular demand, not only for holiday makers but those wanting to visit family and friends,” Simeone said.
“We’re excited to add this popular destination, responding to demand, providing our customers with more incredible low-cost travel options and supporting the travel and tourism industries in these two critical markets,” he added.
Starting in mid-June, Jetstar Asia will offer four weekly return services between Singapore and Clark. Its frequency will increase to five weekly services starting on 18 October 2024.
The route will be serviced by Jetstar Asia’s growing fleet of Airbus A320s and supported by a recruitment drive aimed at meeting the growing demand for travel within the region.
Noel Manankil, president and chief executive at Luzon International Premiere Airport Development Corp. (LIPAD), the manager and operator of Clark International Airport, is delighted to welcome Jetstar back at Clark International Airport (CRK).
“Clark Airport has always been a home to Jetstar and we are happy to serve their passengers again. This partnership provides passengers the opportunity to experience a seamless and memorable airport journey,” Manankil said.
