He noted that Butuan and Cagayan de Oro require fully vaccinated travelers to simply upload their vaccination status via the S-Pass. “This is a welcome development, and we appreciate the various efforts [of the local government unit] to further facilitate the movement of each Juan, especially fully vaccinated people,” said Xander Lao, commercial director of Cebu Pacific. For Legazpi, fully vaccinated travellers must report to their LGU for symptom screening and profiling. The Traze app must also be downloaded. Clark requires travelers to present valid identification and all travel documents required by the LGU, while Cebu Province, Lapu-Lapu City, and Davao do not require fully vaccinated customers to present travel documents for entry. MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Airline Cebu Pacific said a number of local destinations are open to leisure travelers and no longer require COVID testing for fully vaccinated people. According to Cebu Pacific, the LGU requirement may include vaccination certificates, vaccination cards, government-issued identification, S-Pass travel authorizations, confirmed accommodations, and registration for certain contact tracing requests.

“This will stimulate the return of tourists and pave the way for the recovery of the local tourism industry, which we are also ready to support with an increase in the frequency of flights if necessary,” he added.

A person is considered fully vaccinated two weeks after the second dose in a two-dose series or after receiving a single-dose vaccine, Cebu Pacific said.
