Surigao City (16 July) -- The country's leading carrier, Philippine Airlines with its low fare PAL Express started to service the Manila-Surigao daily flights today, July 15, 2008.

In a short program hosted by the local chamber in the city, Mayor Casurra expressed elation to PAL express management for responding their call of putting up a direct flight in Surigao, "It is a historic day for all us because right now we have this maiden flight of PAL Express. We really would like to express our gratitude to Philippine Airlines for answering our call of putting up a direct flight from Manila to Surigao, Surigao to Manila and hopefully Surigao-Cebu."

"On behalf of the local government unit of Surigao as well as our all department heads who are here, our Korean investors who are also here, they are putting up a 5-star hotel… and the rest of the Surigaonons who have really anticipated this maiden flight. Daghang Salamat," he added.
