Cebu Pacific on Tuesday said flight cancellations will not have a significant impact on operations and profitability.
The airline owned by industrialist John Gokongwei said it would reduce about 10 flights a day out of daily operations of 400 flights for the month of May.
The airline is also currently reviewing adjustments required for June and beyond.
“Over the past few days, Cebu Pacific has seen an unprecedented level of disruption to its operations, and its passengers are experiencing extended delays and some on-the-spot cancellations,” said Cebu Pacific.
“To create space in its schedule for operational recovery, minimize rolling delays and give passengers the chance to make alternate travel plans, CEB has to temporarily reduce the number of its flights given the current operating conditions, particularly in its Manila hub,” it added.
Cebu Pacific said the priority of the airline was to assist disrupted passengers and fly them to their destinations at the soonest possible time.
