Philippines Flights Route Guide
Xen Trips connects Manila with Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with flights running in both directions. Manila is the Philippines' main international gateway and the only Philippine city in the current network, serving as the point of arrival for travellers heading anywhere across the archipelago.
Why people fly to Philippines
This is one of the longer routes in the Xen Trips network, and it carries Filipino families and workers travelling back to relatives throughout the Philippines. Business travel linked to the region's outsourcing and shipping industries adds a further steady share of demand. Christmas is the standout peak for this route, as travellers head home for the holiday, a pattern distinct from the Eid-driven peaks seen on most other Xen Trips corridors.
