MANILA, Philippines—Air Asia Philippines on Thursday launched daily flights to Hong Kong and Macau from its hub in Clark International Airport in Pampanga.

“Today’s twin launch is yet another testament of our commitment to develop Clark International Airport as the country’s next premier gateway. We are confident that with the new air linkages from Clark to Hong Kong and Macau, the flow of tourism traffic and business will expand and grow,” AirAsia Inc. CEO Maan Hontiveros said.
