Cebu Pacific (CEB) received three aircraft deliveries this month to meet the growing demand for air travel and to support its network expansion.
The new deliveries include two A321neos and one A320ceo, bringing the total number of aircraft delivered to CEB this year to 15.
“We’re excited to expand our fleet with these new aircraft ahead of the peak travel season in December. These deliveries are a crucial part of our ongoing efforts to expand routes and enhance our services, allowing us to better accommodate the increasing number of travelers,” said Xander Lao, CEB President and Chief Commercial Officer.
The Airbus NEOs represent the latest generation of aircraft, consuming 15 percent less fuel per flight and producing less noise compared to their predecessors. This reduction in fuel consumption leads to a corresponding decrease in carbon emissions from the aircraft.
On October 2, CEB announced that it had signed a landmark purchase agreement with Airbus and Pratt & Whitney, a business unit of RTX, for up to 152 A321neo aircraft equipped with Pratt & Whitney GTF™ engines.
This acquisition marks the largest in Philippine aviation history, valued at approximately USD $24 billion (PHP 1.4 trillion) based on list prices.
CEB operates one of the youngest fleets in the world, featuring a diversified commercial fleet that includes nine Airbus A330s, 40 Airbus A320s, 24 Airbus A321s, and 15 ATR turboprop aircraft.
