Manila: Major airline companies in the Philippines have announced a plan to resume limited domestic flights starting from Wednesday following the government's move to ease coronavirus  restrictions.

Flights to start from June 8, Wednesday, following the government's move to ease coronavirus restrictions.

Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said in a television interview on Tuesday that international commercial flights remain suspended, except for a few to repatriate distressed overseas Filipino workers and stranded foreign nationals, reports Xinhua news agency.

Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL), Cebu Pacific Air and AirAsia issued advisories on Monday about their plan to resume domestic flight services after over two months suspension.

The lock down imposed in mid-March restricted air, land and sea travel and suspended mass transportation in Metro Manila and many parts of the country after airports were shut down to avoid infection.
