Philippine Airlines has launched its first nonstop flights between Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB) and Guam’s Antonio B. Pon Wat Airport (GUM), marking a new chapter in connectivity between the Philippines’ Central Visayas region and the US western Pacific territory. The airline, in partnership with Aboitiz InfraCapital GMCAC, the Mactan-Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA), the Department of Tourism (DOT), and various travel industry representatives, has inaugurated this new route on December 16, 2025. The Airbus A321ceo aircraft will operate three times weekly, with flights departing from CEB at 21:40 local time, touching down in GUM at 03:25 local time. This expansion is expected to facilitate both tourism and family visits, as Guam remains a popular destination for travelers from the Philippines. According to AeroTime, PAL’s existing daily flights between Manila and Guam will now offer direct access to the US territory without routing through the capital.
