Philippine Airlines to Increase Manila - Sydney Flights

Philippine Airlines has confirmed that it will increase flights between Manila and Sydney from the current five times per week, to daily flights.

Beginning 25 October 2015, flights will depart Manila at 22:05 via PR 211 every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, arriving Sydney at 09:30 the following day. PR 213 will depart Manila at 11:00 every Monday, Wednesday and Sunday, arriving Sydney at 22:25.

Flights from Sydney will depart at 06:10 every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday via PR 214 arriving in Manila at 11:25. During the rest of the week - Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday - flights from Sydney will depart at 11:15 via PR 212, arriving in Manila at 16:30.

“A daily frequency with a choice of departure and arrival times provides our passengers the flexibility to seamlessly connect to many cities on PAL’s domestic and international network,” said PAL President & Chief Operating Officer Jaime J. Bautista. “Upon arrival in Manila, Australian business and leisure travelers can enjoy a Manila stopover for several days or make a same-day connection on PAL flights to the many travel spots within the Philippine archipelago.”

Philippines Airlines will celebrate the 50th anniversary of its Sydney operations on 6 October 2015.

Aside from Sydney, PAL’s presence in Australia covers Darwin, Brisbane and Melbourne. The airline will also launch flights to Cairns and Auckland in December 2015.
