Cebu Pacific feels pinch from Philippines quarantine
Cebu Pacific says the month-long “community quarantine” imposed on metropolitan Manila and the main Luzon island group recently will free up 90% of its total seat capacity, even as it maintains services from its hubs outside of Manila and the region. The 90% capacity figure is based on the suspension of domestic flights departing Manila, and previously suspended services to China, Hong Kong, Macau and South Korea, says Cebu Pacific in a Philippines Stock Exchange disclosure. During this period, the airline continues to operate flights from its other hubs that have not been affected by the quarantine order such as Cebu, and is maintaining connectivity “where operationally feasible”. In February, domestic routes accounted for 83% of Cebu Pacific and subsidiary Cebgo’s seat capacity. <br/>
