In a statement last Thursday, March 7, United Airlines announced its plans to “expand its presence in the Philippines with new year-round, non-stop service from Tokyo-Narita, starting July 31.”
“United will be the only US carrier to fly to Cebu with daily flights on 737-800 aircraft, which will have convenient connections from United’s flights from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, Newark-New York, and Houston to Tokyo-Narita,” it added.
In a Facebook post, The Mactan-Cebu International Airport welcomed the US-connected airline that will land on its runways soon.
