Cebu Pacific said its Manila-Beijing service, which the low-cost carrier planned to restart since the Covid-19 pandemic, would be suspended until further notice.
The company said it would skip the China market for now and focus on destinations with high bookings.
Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL) has also reduced flight frequencies to China, retaining only a few routes, including Shanghai and Xiamen.
“PAL’s decision to reduce flights to China aligns with a broader trend, as the Chinese market has been slower to recover compared to other regions following the pandemic,” Carlos Luis Fernandez, the firm’s executive vice-president, told The Philippine Star.
