Boutique airline Sunlight Air said Friday it will move its operations to Clark International Airport (CRK) from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 4 starting April 1, 2024.
“Our passengers are our top priority and are at the center of our operations. This move was made with the consideration and evaluation of the feedback we receive, and the topline service we work to provide,” Sunlight Air chief executive Ryna Brito-Garcia said.
“With this shift, Sunlight Air strives to provide even more passengers with our quality services, as well as a better airline experience overall in terms of heightened efficiency and reliability. We are confident in the added comfort that will come with serving our customers from CRK which was recently recognized and awarded for its top-notch facilities and world-class design,”she said.
The airline said that passengers with existing flights booked from NAIA would receive an advisory on changes to their bookings following the transition.
It said it would provide shared shuttle services from NAIA to CRK. The majority of flights booked for departure or arrival until March 31, 2024 are expected to proceed at NAIA, it said.
Clark International Airport recently opened new local and international routes and expects to double passenger volume.
Sunlight Air expressed hope it would further increase its flight frequency, open more routes and provide more Filipinos with its signature boutique airline experience with the transfer to CRK.
Sunlight Air services flights between Manila and Coron, Siargao, Naga and San Vicente and will open routes to Boracay and regular flights to and from Cebu in April.
It operates a fleet of ATR 72-500 aircraft, renowned for its efficiency, reliability and comfort.
