The 18 new aircraft are planned to progressively join Cebu Pacific’s fleet over the next four years. The carrier has also placed an option for another ten aircraft.
Since Dec-04, SIAEC has been providing line, airframe and fleet management services to Cebu Pacific’s current fleet of 14 A320/A319 aircraft. Line maintenance and light checks are undertaken in Manila by an SIAEC subsidiary company, which Cebu Pacific has an equity share. Heavy maintenance checks are performed by SIAEC in Singapore. The value of the existing contract is worth SGD89.6 million (USD62.3 million).
Mr William Tan, Chief Executive Officer of SIAEC said: "We are delighted that Cebu Pacific, a highly prolific and progressive airline in the Asia-Pacific, is extending the coverage and tenure of our maintenance agreement.”
