Emirates previews Cebu and Clark to local and regional travel industry partners
The presentation focused on educating the travel trade industry around the Emirates’ upcoming two gateways.
Khalid bel Jaflah, divisional vice president, commercial operations UAE & Oman said: “The circular Cebu and Clark routes will be the first new passenger destinations for Emirates in the 2016 calendar year and our preparations for the launch are currently in full swing. With a month to go we are ramping up our activities in our hub of Dubai and around our global network, in order to increase tourism flows in both directions.”
Since launching to Manila in 1990 Emirates has transported more than 7.5 million Filipinos, international tourists and business travellers. Last year alone, Emirates transported over 550,000 passengers on the Manila-Dubai route. The new linked service to Clark and Cebu will help enhance inbound tourism, supporting the Philippine Department of Tourism’s ‘Visit the Philippines Again 2016’ campaign.
