EVA Air will launch daily non-stop flights between Taipei and the northwestern Philippines, starting on March 30, 2023.
The addition of Clark International Airport will give EVA Air three gateways in the Philippines and boost the convenience and flexibility passengers enjoy now with the Manila and Cebu services. By the end of March, the airline will be operating 35 flights a week to the Philippines, offering travellers from throughout Asia, Europe, Australia and North America more arrival and departure options.
Clark Airport is about 80 kilometres (50 miles) from Manila Airport, giving Filipino passengers an alternative way to fly to Taiwan and connect onward to other destinations in Asia, Australia, Europe and North America. The Clark service also reduces travel time from the airport to popular northern Luzon Island beaches and resorts and, via the Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), is still convenient to Manila. The new gateway is tailor-made for Taiwan – Philippines travellers. It will also be attractive to European and American passengers who transit to the Philippines through Taipei.
The airline will fly an Airbus A321-200 to Clark and provide conveniently scheduled flights:

Clark is northwest of Angeles City in Pampanga Province on the site of the United States’ former Clark Air Force Base. After the US Air Force decommissioned the base, the Philippine government repurposed it as a special economic zone. It’s a secure area with beautiful scenery, a pleasant climate and numerous resorts. Leisure travellers can experience light aircraft, hang glide, paraglide, zipline, explore caves, snorkel, surf, fish and enjoy beautiful beaches, along with the warm hospitality and delicious foods the Philippines is known for.
