King Aces Travel & Tours Service Inc (KATTSI), the charterer of the flight service between Cebu and Bantayan Island, has recently informed travelers of an important flight schedule update specifically for September 6, 2024. This one-day change is expected to affect passengers planning to travel between these popular Philippine destinations on that particular date.
Flight Operation Details
The flights are operated by Leading Edge Air Services Corporation (LEASCOR), which owns the ATR aircraft used for this route. Both KATTSI and LEASCOR fall under the umbrella of ACDI Multipurpose Cooperative, highlighting the collaborative nature of this air service provision.
Updated Flight Schedule for September 6, 2024
The revised schedule for September 6, 2024, is as follows:
- Cebu to Bantayan Island: Departure at 0630H
- Bantayan Island to Cebu: Departure at 0800H
This adjustment represents a shift from the regular timetable for this specific date only, potentially impacting travelers’ arrangements for both business and leisure on September 6.
Passenger Considerations
Understanding the inconvenience this single-day change may cause, KATTSI has proactively offered solutions to affected passengers. Those unable to accommodate the new schedule in their travel plans for September 6 are being provided with two options:
Free rebooking to an alternative flight on a different date
Full refund without any additional charges
These measures aim to minimize disruption and provide flexibility to travelers affected by the September 6 schedule change.
Impact on September 6 Travel Plans
John Smith, a tourism analyst, commented on the situation: “While a one-day schedule change can be disruptive for those with fixed plans, KATTSI’s prompt communication allows travelers to adjust their itineraries accordingly. The early morning departure from Cebu on September 6 could actually benefit some travelers, giving them more time to enjoy the island upon arrival.”
Looking Ahead
J Lanutan, a frequent flyer on this route, shared his thoughts: “It’s reassuring to see KATTSI being proactive about informing passengers of this single-day change and offering alternatives. This level of communication helps us plan better, even when faced with temporary adjustments.”
Travelers planning to use this route on September 6, 2024, are encouraged to take note of this specific schedule change. For flights on other dates, the regular schedule is expected to apply, but passengers are always advised to confirm their flight details prior to their travel date.
For the most current information, especially regarding the September 6 flights, passengers are advised to check the official channels of KATTSI and to use the hashtags #cebutobantayanflight, #bantayantocebuflight, #cebutobantayan, and #bantayantocebu on social media platforms for updates and shared experiences.
As this temporary change is implemented, KATTSI, LEASCOR, and local authorities will be monitoring the situation to ensure smooth operations for the September 6 flights while maintaining regular service on all other dates.
