CebuPac flights to and from Legazpi on January 30, 31 delayed, canceled

Flights of budget carrier Cebu Pacific and its wholly-owned subsidiary Cebgo to and from Legazpi, Albay, on January 30 and 31 will either be delayed or canceled.

In an emailed advisory, Cebu Pacific said the following flights flying to and from the Legazpi Airport in Albay will be delayed.

Manila-Legazpi (Cebu Pacific)

• 5J 323 from 7:40 a.m. to 8:50 a.m.
• 5J 327 from 2:50 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

• DG 6206 from 10:30 a.m. to 11:50 a.m.

"All other Cebu Pacific and Cebgo flights to and from Legazpi on January 30 and 31 are canceled," the carrier said in its advisory.

According to Cebu Pacific, the delays and the cancelations were because the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) ordered operating hours of the Legazpi International Airport from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. only.

The CAAP only reopened the Legazpi Airport on Friday, January 26 after the temporary closure due to the threats from the Mayon Volcano.

Passengers on the canceled flights may choose to rebook their flight within 30 days free of charge, get a full refund, or place the cost of the ticket in their travel fund.

"We are monitoring the Mayon Volcano situation and are tracking seismic activity and movement of the ash cloud," the airline said. "We advise passengers with upcoming flights to and from the Bicol region to recheck their flight schedules." —Jon Viktor D. Cabuenas/KBK, GMA News
