MANILA, Philippines – Promotional fares are perhaps the first thing that draw consumers to book a flight but it represents only one aspect of value-for-money air travel. Besides discounted plane tickets and the promise of a wonderful destination, passengers who want a delightful journey know that the kind of aircraft determines considerably the kind of experience one will have during the trip. In a bid to wrest a significant traveling market share that demands higher cost-to-benefit ratio, low-cost carrier AirPhil Express has beefed up its fleet by investing in new aircraft, bringing to 14 its total number of planes, 6 of which belong to the modern Airbus A320 series. The Airbus A320 units service some domestic flights across the country and the company’s international flights to Singapore from Manila and Cebu. The aircraft carries 180 passengers and raises comfort standards in the single-aisle jetliner category. Travelers can look forward to an enhanced cabin experience in terms of wider seats, more legroom and elbowroom, and roomy carry-on baggage space within easy reach. The A320s also ensure efficient fuel burn and decreased maintenance costs that translate to savings for the company which they in turn pass on to its passengers. ”People who take the bus for long hours of travel or take the boat to their destination are now seeing the value of shorter travel time at a minimal cost differential,” says Alfredo Herrera, AirPhil Express Senior Vice President for Marketing and Sales. ”Everybody now has access to air travel,” he says, partly because of growing OFW remittances and people’s confidence in the country’s improving economic climate. ”Domestic air travel that was once prohibitive is now accessible to practically everybody.” aside from the Airbus A320, the company owns several Bombardier Q300 and Q400, used for quick inter-island flights. AirPhil Express in its drive to be the Filipino’s low-cost carrier of choice, will continue with the expansion of its A320 fleet for short-haul and regional flights.
