PAL Expands Japan Network with Seasonal Service to Sapporo
Philippine Airlines has restarted seasonal nonstop flights between Manila and Sapporo, with the first flight departing on November 24, 2025. The service will operate three weekly using Airbus A321neo aircraft, with flights departing from Ninoy Aquino International Airport to New Chitose Airport. The route adds to PAL’s existing Japan network, which includes nonstop services to Tokyo and Osaka. The carrier is partnering with Southwest for seamless single-ticket travel.
