After a five-and-a-half-month hiatus following its final Beijing Capital-Manila flight on October 8, 2024, Philippine Airlines (PAL), the country’s national flag carrier, is set to revive its direct route between the two capitals effective March 30, 2025. The airline will operate three weekly flights on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, reconnecting Beijing with Manila’s Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
As the largest operator linking mainland China and the Philippines, PAL continues to strengthen its network with daily flights from Shanghai Pudong, Xiamen, and Quanzhou (Jinjiang) to Manila. The reinstated Beijing service underscores the airline’s commitment to bridging key Asian hubs with its signature Filipino brand of hospitality.
