Philippine Airlines Dominates as the Best Travel Brand in the Philippines—But Is Cebu Pacific's Fleet Upgrade Enough to Compete?

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Philippine Airlines (PAL) has recently been recognized as the top travel brand in the Philippines and the second-best in Southeast Asia for 2024, achieving a brand score of 63.15%. This accolade highlights PAL's commitment to providing exceptional service quality to its passengers. 

In contrast, Cebu Pacific, the country's leading low-cost carrier, has been expanding its fleet with fuel-efficient aircraft. The airline operates 61 A320 Family aircraft on its extensive regional network and nine A330 widebodies on high-density routes in the region and to destinations in the Middle East. Following a recent order, Cebu Pacific's backlog with Airbus now stands at 94 A320neo Family aircraft and seven A330neo. 

However, some passengers have expressed concerns regarding Cebu Pacific's additional fees for services that are typically included in the base fare of other airlines. For instance, the airline utilizes its own airstairs to avoid airport tacking fees, which can pose challenges for mobility-impaired passengers.

As the aviation industry evolves, both Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific continue to adapt their strategies to meet passenger expectations and operational demands. While PAL focuses on enhancing service quality and customer satisfaction, Cebu Pacific emphasizes fleet modernization and cost-effective operations.
