ISA PANG AIRBUS A320NEO IDINAGDAG SA CEBU PACIFIC FLEET

Nagdagdag ang Cebu Pacific (CEB), ‘the Philippines’ leading carrier’, ng isa pang Airbus A320neo sa ‘fleet’ nito bilang bahagi ng kanilang fleet modernization program.

“The addition of another Airbus A320neo to our fleet reflects our focus on bringing in newer, more fuel-efficient aircraft that give us greater flexibility across our network. This allows us to continue enhancing our fleet while keeping air travel accessible to more Filipinos,” ani Xander Lao, CEB President and Chief Commercial Officer.

Napag-alaman kay CEB spokesperson Carmina Romero na ang nasabing eroplano ay galing sa Airbus’ facility sa Tianjin, China nitong September 11. Ito ang ikatlo sa apat na Airbus A320neo aircraft na nakatakdang i-deliver sa CEB ngayong taon.

” With the latest delivery, NEO aircraft now account for 77% of CEB’s jet fleet, reflecting the airline’s continued shift toward newer-generation aircraft, said Romero, adding that in total, CEB anticipates receiving seven NEO aircraft in 2026, further increasing the share of newer-generation aircraft across its fleet,” ani Romero.

Dagdag pa niya: “Compared to previous-generation aircraft, NEO aircraft burn 15-20% less fuel per flight and produce significantly less noise, contributing to lower carbon emissions and more sustainable operations. CEB operates one of the youngest fleets in the world. Its diversified fleet mix of 14 Airbus A330s, 27 Airbus A321s, 38 Airbus A320s, and 20 ATR turboprop aircraft enables the widest network coverage in the Philippines.” (JERRY S. TAN)
