Guam upbeat on expanded Philippines, Australia, Palau market

From January to May, 1,988 visitors total have arrived on Guam from the three destinations. With easier access and a low-cost airline option for potential travelers, GVB expects that number to increase.

“It’s always a good sign to see more carriers at the airport,” said GVB acting general manager Ernie A. Galito. “We anticipate the increased seat capacity for those visitors from Palau, the Philippines, and Australia, as well as the low cost, will help give more travelers a chance and desire to experience Guam.”

Currently, round-trip tickets on Palau-based Pacific Flier range from $199 to $899, depending on the destination and booking date. The airline will be utilizing one Airbus aircraft for flights.

The inaugural flight  arrived at 7 a.m. yesterday at A.B. Won International Airport.
