Cebu Pacific posts 95% on-time performance

Cebu Pacific posted a 95 percent on-time performance on all departures in January-October 2000 and expects to at least match this in 2001 since its fleet is well maintained.

Cebu Pacific said its 95 percent on-time performance rate means practically all flights are able to leave within 15 minutes of scheduled departures.

The airline said its adherence to the strictest international maintenance and operating standards are the key. A well-maintained fleet virtually assures planes to stick to their flight schedule.

In December 1999, Cebu Pacific became the first in the world to earn the global seal of quality and safety known as Aviation Quality and Safety (AQS) 9000/121 which combined the principles of the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the acceptable regulatory standards.

Unlike other airlines which have AQS certifications on only some of their divisions, Cebu Pacific has achieved the AQS seal on all aspects of its operations – be they technical services, maintenance, flight operations, catering or marketing. It secured the AQS quality seal on a voluntary basis, as part of its continuing effort to improve operations and ensure the safety and convenience of its passengers.
