CANCELLATION OF FLIGHTS AT THE TACLOBAN CITY AIRPORT
Cebu Pacific and Cebgo flights to and from the Daniel Z. Romualdez Airport in Tacloban City are cancelled starting this afternoon, January 17, due to degradation of the runway surface. Repairs to the runway conducted by the airport authority have been hampered by ongoing poor weather. Cebu Pacific and Cebgo flights will resume as soon as ongoing repairs return the runway surface to a suitable condition which no longer poses a risk to the safety of our flights.
The following flights to and from Tacloban are cancelled today, January 17, 2018:
