Dipolog Chamber hails new Air and Sea links
The Dipolog Chamber of Commerce & Industry welcomes the entry of new transport players in Zamboanga del Norte as Cebu Pacific and Negros Navigation announced the opening of their air and sea links, respectively, in the province.
Cebu Pacific (CEB) will open three times weekly flights to Dipolog City starting July 13 using their newly acquired Airbus 319, it was learned. The Manila-Dipolog service departs Manila every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday at 11:45 am arriving in Dipolog at 1:00 pm and leaves Dipolog at 1:30 pm to arrive back in Manila at 2:45 pm.
Negros Navigation, on the other hand, is putting up trips from Dipolog to Manila, Cagayan de Oro, Iloilo, Palawan and various other ports in Visayas and Mindanao. “Dipolog Chamber is especially proud that Cebu Pacific has finally honored our invitation for the airline to fly to Dipolog and complement our initiatives of bringing development in this part of the country,” said Chairman Edwin Capili and President Edgar Bagarinao in a letter to Cebu Pacific President and CEO Lance Gokongwei.
