Cebu Pacific takes delivery of a new 180-seat A320neo in Manila

Cebu Pacific, the country’s largest carrier by passenger volume and planes, expands its fleet with the delivery of its 11th A320neo for 2024, reinforcing its commitment to keeping airfares competitive for both domestic and international travel.

The 180-seater aircraft landed at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Manila last Sept. 13. 

Ready for regional, HK flights 

“We’re thrilled to welcome another aircraft to our growing fleet,” Xander Lao, Cebu Pacific president and chief commercial officer, said in a statement on Wednesday. 

“This delivery supports our commitment to making air travel more accessible and can help us serve upcoming route launches in October, including Davao to Puerto Princesa and Hong Kong,” it added. 

More efficient trips 

Known for its fuel efficiency, the A320neo burns 15 percent less fuel and emits less noise, aligning with the airline’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions. 

Cebu Pacific, which operates one of the youngest fleets globally, boasts a mix of Airbus and ATR aircraft, enabling it to maintain the widest network coverage across the Philippines.
