The Embassy of the Republic of Korea is very excited to announce that the Korean Government will allow visa-free entry to Jeju Island and Yangyang starting 1 June 2022.

For Jeju, Filipino tourists are allowed to enter the beautiful island via direct flights only and stay up to 30 days. Some airlines are reportedly planning to schedule direct flights from the Philippines to Jeju soon. However, tourists are not permitted to travel to other regions outside Jeju.

For Yangyang, Filipino tourists are required to book a group tour program arranged by a designated travel agency. They are allowed to stay up to 15 days and travel around the cities and places in Gangwon Province and Seoul Metropolitan Area only. Please be advised that they must travel back to the Philippines via the Yangyang International airport.

Please note that foreign tourists are still required to comply with the existing health protocols.
Please visit the Embassy’s website for more information on the eligibility for the visa-free entry to Korea as well as the health protocols.

The Korean Embassy hopes that the visa-free entry will promote people-to-people exchanges between Korea and the Philippines via tourism.

PAL WELCOMES EASING OF DOMESTIC TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS

Philippine Airlines expressed optimism that more Local Government Units (LGUs) will ease travel restrictions as the government ramps up the nationwide vaccination drive and allows point to point travel for all ages, provided seniors, pregnant women and persons with identified health risks are fully vaccinated.

The new guidelines from the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) allow point-to-point interzonal travel (including leisure travel) from the National Capital Region (NCR) to areas under General Community Quarantine (GCQ) and/or Modified General Community Quarantine (MGCQ) for: (a) Individuals below 18 years of age); (b) Fully vaccinated individuals over 65 years of age; (c) Fully vaccinated individuals with immunodeficiencies, comorbidities or other health risks; and (d) Fully vaccinated pregnant women. Additionally, individuals ages 18 to 65, regardless of vaccination status, continue to be allowed to travel. All these travelers are subject to the regulations and protocols set by the Local Government Unit (LGU) of the destination city or province and the guidelines of the Department of Tourism.

"We welcome the latest moves by key LGUs to relax travel protocols, including those for travel to Cebu, Iloilo, Butuan, Dipolog, Tacloban, Dumaguete, Cagayan de Oro, Palawan and other areas. We are hopeful that more LGUs will follow suit in easing travel protocols. The government's intensified vaccination drive across various provinces is an important factor in these decisions to make travel more convenient while ensuring the safety of everyone," said PAL Senior Vice President for Strategy and Planning, Mr. Dexter C. Lee.

As of October 13, 2021, domestic destinations which have relaxed their travel requirements and provided special considerations for fully vaccinated travelers include:

BUTUAN -- Fully-vaccinated travelers may present their Vaccination Cards in lieu of taking RT-PCR tests.

CAGAYAN DE ORO -- No COVID-19 test required for all travelers.

CATARMAN -- No COVID-19 test required for all travelers.

CORON -- Fully-vaccinated travelers with negative RT-PCR/Saliva test result are now allowed to travel to Coron. (Unvaccinated or partially vaccinated travelers are however not allowed).

CULION -- Fully-vaccinated travelers with negative RT-PCR test result are now allowed. (Unvaccinated or partially vaccinated travelers are however not allowed).

CEBU PROVINCE (other than Cebu City, Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu City) -- Travelers may present a Medical Certificate secured 24 hours before flight.

CEBU CITY -- Fully-vaccinated travelers may take a Saliva Test (within 48 hours of departure) instead of RT-PCR or Antigen tests.

Cebu-bound tourists whose final destination is Mactan island must comply with Lapu-Lapu City’s travel requirements. Currently, Lapu-Lapu City requires a negative RT-PCR/Antigen test result prior to departure.

DIPOLOG -- Fully-vaccinated APOR travelers under official business whose stay in Dipolog does not exceed 48 hours may present their vaccination cards instead of a negative RT-PCR result.

GUIMARAS -- Fully-vaccinated travelers may present their Vaccination Cards in lieu of taking RT-PCR tests.

ILOILO CITY -- Returning Residents and ROFs no longer need to present their RT-PCR test result.

MAGUINDANAO PROVINCE (except Cotabato) - Fully-vaccinated travelers going to Maguindanao may present their Vaccination Cards/records in lieu of taking the RT-PCR Test.

NEGROS ORIENTAL -- Fully-vaccinated travelers traveling to Dumaguete and in Negros Oriental may take an Antigen test with a negative result (valid up to 48 hours upon release of result) instead of an RT-PCR test and present their Vaccination Cards/Records.

NEGROS OCCIDENTAL (except Bacolod City) – Fully-vaccinated travelers traveling to Negros Occidental may present their Vaccination Cards/records in lieu of taking the RT-PCR Test.

OZAMIZ – Fully-vaccinated travelers may present their vaccination card and negative Antigen Test Result (taken within 72 hours of departure) in lieu of taking the RT-PCR test.

PUERTO PRINCESA -- Fully-vaccinated APOR travelers who intend to stay in the city for a maximum of 3 days only may present their vaccination cards/records to be exempted from the mandatory 10-day quarantine.

PAGADIAN CITY -- No COVID-19 test required for all travelers.

TACLOBAN -- Fully-vaccinated travelers may present their Vaccination Cards in lieu of taking RT-PCR tests.

The flag carrier urges the flying public to take advantage of their fully vaccinated status when traveling to domestic destinations.

"PAL continues to airlift essential vaccines to various parts of the country, in partnership with the Philippine government. To date, PAL has carried 8.7 million vaccine doses from Manila to provinces in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. This comprises 45% of the total number of vaccine doses flown domestically since March this year," added Mr. Lee.

Additionally, the IATF announced that, beginning Oct. 16, the alert level status in Metro Manila will be downgraded to Alert Level 3, which has more relaxed restrictions and allows for reopening of more businesses, vs. the current Level 4.

With this announcement, PAL expects an uptake in domestic travel in the next few months especially in tourist destinations such as Boracay. Travelers are reminded to comply with Boracay’s tourist travel requirements:

· Negative RT-PCR Test Result (accredited DOH Labs) or Saliva-based test result (PH Red Cross only) with 72 hours validity from date of travel

· Confirmed booking from DOT-accredited establishments

· Approved S-Pass

· Registration as tourist at aklan.gov.ph or touristboracay.com

Other tourist destinations may have similar travel requirements. PAL strongly encourages travelers to check with their destination LGU for the latest rules and requirements, which are subject to change by the issuing local government authority and are issued for passengers’ and the public’s safety. For additional information, they may also check with www.philippineairlines.com.

Travel Advisory No. 160
March 22, 2021

PAL TO CARRY ONLY 'ESSENTIAL' TRAVELERS BETWEEN MANILA and DOMESTIC STATIONS

In line with the latest resolution of the Inter-Agency Task Force on the Management of Infectious Diseases (IATF) allowing only essential travelers in and out of the National Capital Region from March 22 to April 4, Philippine Airlines will only carry passengers traveling for non-leisure purposes between Manila and domestic stations within the said period.

Domestic leisure travelers affected by these restrictions may avail of any of the following options:
1. Convert your ticket to a Travel Voucher (request until June 30, 2021)
2. Avail of unlimited rebooking (no rebooking fee) until December 31, 2021. If you will be completing your travel in the same booking class by June 30, 2021 (or ticket validity, whichever comes first), there will be no fare difference charge.
3. Refund your ticket without penalties.

You may request any of the options via the myPAL Request Hub at https://mypal.vip/url/RequestHub.

If you are a leisure traveler already in a domestic destination and wish to return home, PAL will endeavor to operate flights to Manila to accommodate returning leisure travelers.

If you are a Returning Overseas Filipino (ROF), Locally Stranded Individual (LSI) or Authorized Person Outside of Residence (APOR), PAL will continue to accept you on flights, provided that you secure all requirements by your Local Government Unit (LGU).

Essential travelers must present valid identification showing proof of residence, on top of other requirements of their respective LGUs. For a guide on these travel rules and requirements, visit https://bit.ly/PALTravelsWithinPH.

This is an evolving situation. Should there be new guidelines from the government on domestic air travel restrictions in and out of Manila, we will keep everyone posted through our PAL page and website www.philippineairlines.com.

Flying Safely in the ‘New Normal’
PAL is strictly implementing Fly Safe “new normal” practices to protect our passengers, in compliance with international health and safety protocols.
Please bring your own face masks and face shields and wear them at all times – at the airport and throughout your flight.
We encourage you to check-in online and arrive early at the airport to allocate extra time for new safety procedures– at least 3 hours prior to departure for domestic flights; and 4 hours prior to departure for international flights.
Our cabin crew would have undergone medical evaluation prior to their duty, and will be wearing full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for your protection on board the flight. A modified meal and snack service will be offered on board, using sealed packaging instead of traditional meals.
Don’t worry about the cabin air --- all PAL aircraft are equipped with high-technology systems that continuously infuse fresh air across the cabin (cabin air is replaced every 2 to 3 minutes), as well as HEPA filters that trap viruses, bacteria and other contaminants with 99.9% efficiency. The onboard air creates a cleaner environment that is safer than most enclosed public spaces and comparable to hospital operating rooms.
For more information, please see here: https://bit.ly/PALKeepsYouSafe

Flying Safely in the ‘New Normal’
PAL is strictly implementing Fly Safe “new normal” practices to protect our passengers, in compliance with international health and safety protocols.
Please bring your own face masks and face shields and wear them at all times – at the airport and throughout your flight.
We encourage you to check-in online and arrive early at the airport to allocate extra time for new safety procedures– at least 3 hours prior to departure for domestic flights; and 4 hours prior to departure for international flights.
Our cabin crew would have undergone medical evaluation prior to their duty, and will be wearing full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for your protection on board the flight. A modified meal and snack service will be offered on board, using sealed packaging instead of traditional meals.
Don’t worry about the cabin air --- all PAL aircraft are equipped with high-technology systems that continuously infuse fresh air across the cabin (cabin air is replaced every 2 to 3 minutes), as well as HEPA filters that trap viruses, bacteria and other contaminants with 99.9% efficiency. The onboard air creates a cleaner environment that is safer than most enclosed public spaces and comparable to hospital operating rooms.

SPECIAL REMINDER TO CHECK ON UPDATES:
This is a developing situation, and it is quite possible that our plans and schedules may change in response to evolving travel restrictions and quarantine limitations at arrival airports. Kindly check our website www.philippineairlines.com, or follow our social media accounts, so that you'll be updated the moment we release advisories on new developments.
