LOW-COST carrier Cebu Pacific has taken delivery of its seventh aircraft for the year, an Airbus A321neo, under a fleet expansion aimed at meeting increased air travel demand.
'This aircraft delivery reaffirms our commitment to providing safe, affordable and accessible flights for every Juan. We look forward to carrying more passengers to their chosen destinations as we continue to expand not only our network, but also our fleet,' Xander Lao, Cebu Pacific president and chief commercial officer, said in a statement on Wednesday.The aircraft arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila from Airbus' facility in Hamburg, Germany, on June 30.
Cebu Pacific operates one of the youngest fleets in the world, with its diversified commercial fleet mix of eight Airbus 330s, 37 Airbus 320s, 22 Airbus 321s and 15 ATR turboprop aircraft enabling the widest network coverage in the Philippines.Airbus' neos, or new engine option aircraft, are latest-generation planes that burn 15 percent less fuel per flight compared to the previous generation.The reduction in fuel consumption leads to a corresponding reduction in aircraft carbon emissions.
