Air Juan Aviation Inc. plans to acquire 10 aircraft over the next five years as part of its refleeting program, a top executive said Thursday.
“We are spending a lot in the next five years. We want to grow further,” Air Juan president John Gutierrez told reporters.
The company plans to acquire the 10 aircraft at $2.5 million to $3 million each. “We hope to increase our capacity by five times in five years,” Gutierrez said.
The airline carries 1,500 passengers a month, mostly foreign tourists.
Air Juan currently has six Cessna Grand Caravan seaplanes, four Cessna Grand Caravan EX and two helicopters.
“We make every flight as pleasantly memorable as possible, but we still remain focused on our goal, which is to take passengers to their destination as safety and conveniently as possible,” Gutierrez said.
Air Juan flies to Baler, Boracay, Busuanga, Puerto Galera, Marinduque and Subic.
