Cebu Pacific Flew Over 19 Million Passengers in 2016

Cebu Pacific flew 19.1 million passengers in 2016, an increase of 4% from the 18.4 million passengers flown in 2015.

On average, flights were 86% full during the year. Growth in passenger volume was largely driven by the airline’s low-cost short-haul services, and increased frequencies in key domestic markets. Specifically, the former recorded a 9.3% growth compared to 2015, while the latter reflected a 2.6% increase.
