Philippine low-cost carrier Cebu Pacific marked a historic milestone as it became the first local carrier to operate a 100-strong fleet with the delivery of its latest aircraft, a brand-new Airbus A330neo.

Airline president and chief commercial officer Xander Lao enthused: “Reaching 100 aircraft is more than a milestone: it reflects our unwavering commitment to make air travel accessible to more Filipinos. With a larger fleet, we’re able to operate more efficiently, enhance connectivity across the country and the region, and pass on the benefits of scale through even lower fares.”

This milestone comes amid continued passenger growth; as of June 2025, CEB flew a total of 2.2 million passengers, marking a 7.9 percent increase from the same month last year. 

From January to June, the airline has flown 13.9 million passengers, marking a 21 percent increase from 11.5 million in the first half of 2024.

A welcome addition to the fleet

The A330neo is also the 12th aircraft of its kind to join the Cebu Pacific fleet, reinforcing the airline’s position as the largest A330neo operator in the Asia-Pacific.

The 459-seater aircraft, which arrived in Manila from Airbus’ facility in Toulouse, France, is the second of four A330neos expected to join CEB’s fleet this year, the first of which arrived last 28th March.

Currently, Cebu Pacific is expecting a total of seven aircraft to be delivered before this year ends.

The new A330neo provides CEB with the flexibility to serve regional and long-haul routes, as well as high-demand sectors. 

With increased range and capacity, the aircraft enables the airline to optimize its operations while maintaining cost efficiency.

Airbus NEOs are the latest-generation aircraft that burn up to 25 percent less fuel per flight and produce less noise compared to the previous generation. 

The decrease in fuel consumption leads to a corresponding reduction in aircraft carbon emissions.
