CEB hails start of Legazpi Airport night operations

THE Philippines’ leading airline Cebu Pacific on Thursday lauded the start of Legazpi International Airport’s night operations, calling it “a great step towards achieving the decongestion of NAIA,” referring to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Metro Manila.

“We are commending CAAP [Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines] for taking action on our request. We believe this improvement in Legazpi is a move in the right direction as we continue to work with relevant authorities for night operations in other key Philippine destinations, such as Caticlan, Roxas, Naga and Dumaguete, among others,” said JR Mantaring, CEB vice president for corporate affairs.
