Since 1996, the airline has flown more than 140 million passengers across 37 domestic and 29 international destinations, spanning Asia, Australia, U.S. and the Middle East. Cebu Pacific’s vision is to be the most successful low-cost carrier in the world with a commitment to excellence and innovation in everything they do.
