CLARK FIELD, Pampanga Tiger Airways, known as Singapores low-fare airline, has informed officials of the Clark Development Corp. (CDC) and the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport (DMIA) here that it will increase its flights from Clark to Singapore to 10 flights a week
In a statement, Tony Davis, chief executive officer of Tiger Airways, said: "Many passengers have contacted Tiger Airways, frustrated that our existing flights are already full. We are delighted to offer two additional flights to satisfy the overwhelming demand for low-fare travel in the Philippines."
CDC officials said Tiger Airways is set to increase its flights from only three to five times a week to 10 flights weekly starting July 30.
CDC executive vice president Victor Jose Luciano said the additional flights would be in response to the requests of passengers, mostly overseas Filipino workers in Singapore, since the airlines inaugural flight last April 4.
Luciano said that last June 6, Tiger Airways increased the number of its flights from three to five times a week.
Tiger Airways earlier noted "strong forward bookings " for its flights to Clark for the June-July 2005 period. The 10-flights-a-week scheme is expected to allow Tiger Airways to carry more than 180,000 passengers to the Philippines each year, and is expected to boost local tourism and economy.
Luciano said that tickets could be bought via www.tigerairways.com. Payment can be made through Visa or MasterCard online.
Tiger Airways, a subsidiary of Singapore Airlines, is fast developing itself into the city-states biggest and most popular low-fare airline and the clear benefits of affordable air travel have been enthusiastically embraced by customers in Asia. Ding Cervantes
