PAL ADVISORY

Travel News Asia Date: 5 July 2001

Philippine Airlines cancelled its last flight from Manila to Hong Kong today, PR 310, after weather authorities warned of strong winds and heavy rain spawned by tropical storm Feria (international code name: “Utor”).

The return service to Manila, PR 311, was also cancelled.

Passengers on these flights will be accommodated on the first available flights tomorrow.

PR 310 had been scheduled to depart Manila at 5:45 p.m. PR 311 would have departed Hong Kong at 8:50 p.m.

Typhoon Feria, packing winds of 170 kilometers per hour, was last tracked late this afternoon over the Batanes Islands in the northernmost reaches of the Philippines – effectively blocking the flight paths of PR 310 and PR 311.

These were the only flight cancellations of PAL today. The airline has 133 scheduled flights today – 88 domestic and 45 international.
