Cebu Pacific, the Philippines’ leading airline, has been recognized as the Best Airline at the 2025 Routes Asia Awards, marking its second consecutive victory at this esteemed regional event.
The Routes Asia Awards celebrate airlines, airports, and tourism organizations for their exceptional contributions to route development and tourism growth throughout the Asia-Pacific region. CEB’s back-to-back win highlights the success of its network expansion and strategic alliances over the past year.
“This recognition reflects the strength of our network strategy and, more importantly, the partnerships we’ve built with our airport partners and stakeholders. It’s a meaningful reminder of our commitment to accessible air travel and expanding our presence across key markets in the region,” Xander Lao, CEB president and chief commercial officer said.
In 2024, the airline launched 28 new routes, comprising 19 domestic and 9 international services, connecting passengers to popular destinations like Chiang Mai, Kaohsiung, and Sapporo. New hubs in Davao and Iloilo were also established, boosting connectivity alongside its key hubs in Manila, Cebu, and Clark.
Complementing its network growth is CEB’s historic purchase order of 152 Airbus aircraft—the largest in Philippine aviation history. This strategic investment is part of the airline’s long-term plan to modernize its fleet and meet the rising demand for air travel.
The airline also amplified its tourism efforts with the launch of its “Fly to Happy, Fly to the Philippines!” campaign, aimed at attracting more travelers to the country’s natural attractions and cultural experiences.
Cebu Pacific currently operates flights to 37 domestic and 26 international destinations across Asia, Australia, and the Middle East.
