Cebu Pacific to launch Manila-Riyadh flights on March 1, 2026

Cebu Pacific will launch direct flights from Manila to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, beginning March 1, 2026, offering a new, more affordable travel option for Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs).

The airline will operate flights four times a week, with departures from Manila on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, and from Riyadh on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

To celebrate the new route, Cebu Pacific is offering a seat sale with a base fare as low as P1 for bookings made between December 9 and 13, valid for travel from March 1 to October 28, 2026.

Passengers booking between December 9 and 31 can also avail of discounted rates for seat selection, meals, and additional baggage allowance.

Cebu Pacific projects that this new route will enable travelers to save up to 57 percent on roundtrip fares compared to existing travel alternatives.

Cebu Pacific president and chief commercial officer Xander Lao stated that the new service is a way to honor the sacrifices of OFWs and make travel home easier and more economical.

The Manila-Riyadh route marks Cebu Pacific's fourth long-haul destination, adding to its existing services to Dubai, Sydney, and Melbourne.
