Low-cost carrier Cebu Pacific has received its first aircraft which comes decked out in its new livery, a brand-new A320 aircraft that arrived from Toulouse, France, on January 22.
Equipped with fuel-saving wingtip devices called Sharklets, the Airbus A320 is coated with Cebu Pacific’s new logo which was first rolled out in June 2015.
“The theme builds on the Philippines’ natural canvas as inspiration, and showcases shades of the country’s land, sea, sky, and sun,” the airline said in a statement.
Cebu Pacific is also set to accept delivery of another brand-new A320 with the revamped livery before the end of January. With these two deliveries, the budget carrier will be operating a fleet of eight Airbus A319, 35 Airbus A320, six Airbus A330, and eight ATR 72-500 aircraft. Cebu Pacific’s fleet, the company noted, is one of the youngest in the world, with an average age of 4.69 years.
“As we look to celebrate the airline’s 20th anniversary this year, we proudly welcome this addition to our fleet which features Cebu Pacific’s new logo. The plane’s refreshed livery signifies the airline’s growth and evolution from pioneering low-cost travel in the Philippines to successfully growing its flight operations across key domestic and international markets today,” Cebu Pacific vice president for Corporate Affairs Atty. JR Mantaring said.
Between 2016 and 2021, Cebu Pacific will also take delivery of three more brand-new Airbus A320, 30 Airbus A321neo, and 16 ATR 72-600 aircraft.
