Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 6) — Low-cost carrier Cebu Pacific said Wednesday it has already restored 88% of its pre-pandemic systemwide capacity, signaling renewed confidence of passengers in air travel.
In a statement, Cebu Pacific said it now flies an average of 340 flights a day, covering 34 domestic and 18 international destinations. Its current operations translate to roughly 64,000 seats offered daily.
The airline said it already exceeded its December 2019 level for domestic capacity this month.
“We are pleased to see more people confidently flying again, not just within the Philippines but even abroad,” said Xander Lao, Cebu Pacific’s chief commercial officer.
“This positive development has not only allowed us to carry more passengers, but also boosted our cargo service,” he said.
To keep its momentum, Lao said Cebu Pacific will continue to ride on the growing demand for seat sales.
For this month, the group announced a special 7.7 sale from July 7 to 11, offering flights for as low as ₱188 and ₱499 one-way base fare for domestic and select international routes, respectively.
“We remain committed to offering the lowest fares across our network and we are encouraged by past seat sale success rates so we will continue to stimulate travel through our promo fares,” Lao said.
