Cebu to NagoyaNovember 19, 20264 a week: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday

Cebu Pacific announced both routes on August 7, 2026, alongside the Cebu to Ho Chi Minh City resumption, which restarted on October 26 at three flights a week. Nagoya becomes the airline’s third Japanese city from Cebu, after Tokyo Narita and Osaka. AeroRoutes’ schedule listing of August 11 puts both new routes on A320neo aircraft. The October 30 schedule update reported no change to either start date.

Cebu routes with fewer flights in November

AeroRoutes reported these reductions from Cebu Pacific’s filed schedules on October 30, 2026.

Cebu Pacific has not published a reason for the November reductions. Its earlier 2026 cuts, which included Cebu to Singapore going from seven to five flights a week, were attributed to the fuel crisis tied to the Middle East conflict. Those ran until late October. Filed schedules can still change, so treat the table as the plan as of October 30 rather than a promise.

If your flight is affected

Open Manage Booking on the Cebu Pacific site or app with your booking reference, and check the email tied to the booking for a schedule change notice. For its earlier network adjustments this year, Cebu Pacific offered free rebooking within 30 days of the original date, conversion to a Travel Fund, or a refund. Whether the same options apply to the November changes is set in the airline’s own notice to you.
