Vancouver airport adds more direct flights to Manila
People travelling between B.C. and the Philippines now have more flight options as Air Canada launches a direct route from Vancouver to Manila. The first flight is set to depart YVR Wednesday, according to a news release, which notes there are more than one million Filipinos living in Canada – with upwards of 170,000 based in British Columbia. There will be four departures out of YVR and four from Manila per week once the route is fully up and running in May. “We are proud to be the only Canadian carrier flying to the Philippines, building on the longstanding ties between our countries to make visiting family and friends, conducting business, or heading on vacation more convenient than ever,” Mark Galardo, an executive with Air Canada said in the news release.<br/>
