Cebu Pacific will soon be the only airline offering direct Manila-Sapporo flights, starting Jan. 16, 2025. The route will operate thrice weekly, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

This new direct service will cut travel time to five hours compared to up to 10 hours on connecting flights. 

Travelers can easily attend the famous Sapporo Snow Festival, snowboard at Teine Ski Resort, or soak at Jozankei Onsen. Bookings can be made using Travel Funds, credit or debit cards, or e-wallets.

Management’s view 

“We are thrilled to be the only carrier to offer non-stop flights between Manila and Sapporo,”  said Xander Lao, Cebu Pacific president and chief commercial officer.

“The launch of this route is a testament to Cebu Pacific’s mission of expanding its international network and making air travel accessible to a wider range of passengers. We are excited to offer more Filipinos the opportunity to experience the winter charm of Sapporo,” he added.
