Dheeraj Ranjan Kumarr, Founder, Balitrip Wisata, said, “We are excited to announce the launch of our Philippines DMC today. We will be introducing it aggressively to our partner network across India. After the successful launch of Sri Lanka, this marks our second major destination expansion.” Kumarr added, “As a pioneer in Bali operations, we are now extending the same expertise, reliability, and innovation that define us into the Philippines. Our goal is to give Indian agents a trusted regional partner for Southeast Asia with curated experiences and strong on-ground support.”

Indian carriers, including IndiGo Airlines, are expanding their networks in Southeast Asia to capture a larger share of outbound travellers and transit traffic. Data from aviation analytics firm Cirium shows carriers are scheduled to operate 270 daily two-way flights between India and Southeast Asia in September, which is 12% higher than last year. IndiGo is planning new flights to Bali from Mumbai and Delhi, adding to its existing service from Bengaluru. Flights from Mumbai will be operated with a technical halt in Chennai. The airline has sought regulatory approvals and slots for the additional flights, it is learnt.
