Cebu Pacific has taken delivery of a new Airbus A330-300 aircraft in time for the festive peak season.

The new twin-aisle jet was delivered on 14 December and has now entered service on the airline’s route between Manila and Hong Kong. This deployment has led to a 22% increase in terms of seat capacity on the popular route.

As a low-cost carrier, Cebu Pacific equips its A330s with 436 seats in an all-economy class layout. This gives it a greater capacity than some airlines’ A380s.

Cebu Pacific is the largest Philippine carrier operating in Hong Kong, offering flights to Cebu, Clark and Iloilo, as well as Manila.
