( 2.7 / 23 )Cebu Pacific Air (CEB) announced today in the Manila Bulletin that they resume Caticlan operations starting March 1, 2010, after an almost 7-month hiatus from flying to the Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, the gateway to Boracay.
According to a CAAP (Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines) memo dated January 25, 2010, CEB aircraft can now take off both ways in the Godofredo Ramos Airport runway. In the event of unavoidable airport conditions, flights to Caticlan may still be diverted to Kalibo.
Starting March 1, 2010, CEB will gradually reintroduce its Caticlan flights into service, beginning with the transfer of four Manila-Kalibo and one Cebu-Kalibo flights to Caticlan.
The airline expects to resume full Caticlan operations by March 28, 2010, with 11 Manila-Caticlan Manila flights and 1 Cebu-Caticlan-Cebu flight daily. This gives CEB the most number of airline seats to and from Caticlan.
And when will SEAIR come back to Camiguin?

( 3.1 / 23 )Do you remember Herman's Hermits song " No milk today "?
No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why
(...)
This is what we sing these days on Camiguin Island. Milk is out of stock everywhere! And cornflakes with milkpowder for breakfast is a bit dry...
Let's hope that the milkman finds again a ferry to Camiguin.

( 2.8 / 16 )The Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission has imposed a two-year ban on tuna fishing on countries in the western and central Pacific region, including the Philippines, reportedly due to overfishing.
On the one hand this ban should allow the tuna to partially recover from overfishing.
On the other hand, there will be over 100'000 fishermen without work in southern Mindanao. This ban may push General Santos City into deep social problems. General Santos City is the Philippines tuna capital.

( 2.9 / 9 )The Philippines Bureau of Immigration has introduced a new disembarkation card for international passengers.
The new card has was introduced on January 1st, 2010 and is called A/D card (arrival/departure card).
It seems, that this new card is machine-readable.
It also seems that not all airlines have yet received the new cards. Passengers of these airlines get the new card at NAIA, the International Airport of Manila.
As soon as we can get one of these new cards, we will publish a picture.
Meanwhile we have updated our visa page and publish the new visa extension fees.
