The most popular AirAsia destination in the Philippines in 2024 has been announced
Boracay (Philippines) continues to be AirAsia Philippines' most preferred destination and vacation spot for individual and group travelers, outperforming Bohol, Cebu and Puerto Princesa.
AirAsia's latest data shows that 250,000 guests have already planned and booked their flights to the island for travel in February, March, April and May. This is already 72% of last year's 377,000 guests who flew to the island, reports WhenInManila.com.
The growth in numbers is expected to boost Boracay's economy, especially as the Department of Tourism and the local government of Aklan expect more than 2.3 million tourists to visit the island this year.
"Boracay is one of our top three most visited domestic destinations. Not only in summer, we see an influx of guests flying to Boracay, but all year round. During the pandemic, this island was a haven for organizing remote work. Now, the island has regained its glory as a short and long vacation destination," says Steve Dalisan, AirAsia's Head of Communications and Public Affairs and First Officer.
As TravelWise previously reported, AirAsia Philippines has issued an urgent public warning about the growing number of fake social media accounts. These dubious pages advertise very attractive deals on domestic and international flights, including package deals with hotel stays, excursions and other activities at seemingly unbeatable prices.
