April 5, 2025
Manila, Philippines – Traveling to El Nido, Palawan, is about to get easier with new direct flights from Clark International Airport (CRK) to El Nido Airport (ENI), launching on March 30, 2025. The added route provides travelers an alternative departure point for those heading to one of the country’s most stunning destinations.
For those looking to experience El Nido’s renowned limestone cliffs, white sand beaches, and rich marine life, the direct flights provide a seamless journey. Visitors staying at Ayala Land’s resorts and Lio Estate will especially benefit from the improved accessibility.
A Smoother Journey to Paradise, Driving Tourism with Sustainable Development
The new route offers a convenient alternative to Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), making it an ideal option for travelers from Northern and Central Luzon. It also helps decongest Manila’s main airport while providing a faster, hassle-free gateway to Palawan.
To accommodate the expected rise in visitors, efforts are underway to increase the capacity of El Nido Airport (ENI). Future enhancements will ensure that the airport can support growing passenger volumes while maintaining its commitment to sustainable and responsible tourism.
“This new flight route is a game-changer for El Nido,” said Cris Zuluaga, Head of Ayala Land Leisure Estates. “With these new flights, we look forward to welcoming travelers who seek immersive, nature-focused experiences that will help drive local economic growth while ensuring that El Nido remains preserved for generations to come.”
Greater accessibility to El Nido and Ayala Land’s leisure destinations is expected to boost tourism, generate jobs, and strengthen local businesses. The initiative aligns with Ayala Land’s vision of responsible development, ensuring that increased foot traffic contributes to sustainable practices and community enrichment.
