Flights to Boracay via Caticlan, Aklan

Air_Philippines, one of major domestic carriers, is acquiring up to six Bombardier Q300 turbo-prop aircraft to serve its expanded route network, including a new service to Caticlan, gateway to the famed resort island of Boracay.

The first Q300, scheduled for delivery in November 2007, will start the Manila-Caticlan run of the airline, which is known for its tourist-friendly ultra-low fares.

The aircraft is equipped with two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW 123B turboprop engines. It has outstanding take-off and landing capabilities even on unprepared airstrips, making the Q300 an ideal choice for Air Philippines’ service to Caticlan and other small provincial airfields.

The airline’s Q300 is configured with 50 seats at a comfortable 32-inch pitch, making for low seat-mile costs that are ultimately passed on to passengers in the form of low fares.

Daily flights to service this route will start from December 15, 2007.

On the larger scale, the new Q300 Caticlan service ideally compliments the regional charter operations of Air Philippines and the international operations of partner carrier Philippine Airlines, in which traffic between Caticlan and overseas points are able to seamlessly connect both ways.

The airline currently operates eight Boeing 737-200 jet aircraft serving a network of 12 points in the Philippines from hubs in Manila and Cebu. It also operates regular charter flights to points in Korea.
