As of 7 September 2026, Cebu Pacific continues to operate its wider network, and Manila-Dubai is listed with four weekly flights in the airline’s current notice and published timetable.
The airline’s network-adjustment notice lists five other international route suspensions and selected frequency reductions that continue into October 2026.
What’s suspended
Cebu Pacific lists five international route suspensions in its network-adjustment notice: Davao-Bangkok, Iloilo-Bangkok, Iloilo-Singapore, Clark-Hanoi and Davao-Hong Kong.
| Route | Flight numbers | Current status |
|---|---|---|
| Davao–Hong Kong | 5J 5262 / 5J 5263 | Suspended through 23 October 2026 |
| Davao–Bangkok Don Mueang | 5J 5964 / 5J 5965 | Suspended from 13 April to 23 October 2026 |

Dubai flights
Cebu Pacific lists Manila-Dubai flights four times weekly. The timetable checked on 7 September lists 5J 14 departing Manila at 15:30 and arriving in Dubai at 20:45 local time on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, through 4 October 2026. This confirms scheduled service, not seat availability or a completed flight.
- Frequency: Four weekly flights on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays
- Flight numbers: 5J 14 from Manila to Dubai and 5J 15 from Dubai to Manila
- Affected passengers: Previously cancelled Dubai bookings can be rebooked or converted to Travel Fund through Cebu Pacific’s Manage Booking portal
Previously cancelled bookings remain cancelled unless Cebu Pacific sends an updated notification; the route’s return does not automatically reinstate them.
Reduced-frequency routes
Cebu Pacific’s official network-adjustment page also lists reduced frequencies on selected Southeast Asia flights.
| Route | Adjustment | Period |
|---|---|---|
| Cebu-Singapore | 7 weekly to 5 weekly | 16/17 April to 24/25 October 2026 |
| Manila-Jakarta | 7 weekly to 4 weekly | 14/15 April to 24/25 October 2026 |
| Manila-Kuala Lumpur | 7 weekly to 5 weekly | 15/16 April to 23/24 October 2026 |
What’s still operating
Most Cebu Pacific flights are still operating, including the Philippine domestic network and most North Asia and Southeast Asia services.
- Domestic Philippines: Mainline domestic flights from Manila, Cebu and Clark continue to operate.
- North Asia: Routes to Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul, Taipei and mainland China points are not listed in the Middle East adjustment notice; Davao-Hong Kong is suspended through 23 October.
- Southeast Asia: Manila and Cebu services continue to Bangkok, Singapore, Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur, with only the listed routes reduced or suspended.
- Middle East: Cebu Pacific says Manila-Riyadh continues four times weekly, alongside the four weekly Manila-Dubai schedule.
Rebooking, refunds and Travel Fund
Cebu Pacific says passengers affected by suspended or reduced flights can choose from flexible options through Manage Booking.
- Free rebooking: For the listed network adjustments, move to an available flight up to 30 days before or after the original flight without a fare difference.
- Travel Fund: Convert the ticket value into Cebu Pacific credit for future flights and add-ons.
- Cash refund: Request a refund if the airline cancelled or changed the flight.
Passengers should use Cebu Pacific’s flight-status page or their booking reference for the latest operational status, especially for trips involving Gulf airspace.
