From January 27 to 30, the Danang Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism organised a broad array of tourism promotion activities in the Philippines, coinciding with the city’s participation in the ASEAN Tourism Forum (ATF) TRAVEX 2026 in Cebu, one of the region’s major tourism trade events.
During the programme, the Danang delegation held working sessions with around 25 partners in Manila, including representatives of tourism associations, airlines and travel companies.
AirAsia is expected to operate the direct Manila-Danang service from March with four weekly flights, providing additional momentum for visitor flows from the Philippine market.
The Philippines is one of Danang’s faster-growing source markets for tourism. In 2025, the city welcomed nearly 166,000 visitors from the Philippines, more than doubling year on year.
Direct air services between Manila and Danang are currently operated by Cebu Pacific Air and Philippine Airlines.
