In the world of air travel, time is precious. Delays can disrupt schedules, cause stress, and even lead to missed connections. That’s why punctuality is a key factor for many travelers when choosing an airline. And AirAsia Philippines has just been recognized for its unwavering commitment to on-time performance, earning the coveted title of Southeast Asia’s most punctual airline for the month of October.
A Commitment to Punctuality
With an impressive On-Time Performance (OTP) of 85.02%, AirAsia Philippines surpassed its competitors, ensuring that over 630,000 passengers reached their domestic and international destinations on time. This achievement is a testament to the airline’s dedication to providing a seamless and stress-free travel experience for its guests.
“Being punctual is our greatest commitment to our guests,” shared AirAsia Philippines CEO Ricky Isla. “We would like to ensure the timely departure and arrival of our aircraft with the utmost consideration to safety.”
This commitment to punctuality extends beyond just October. AirAsia Philippines has a proven track record of maintaining a positive OTP, thanks to the collaborative efforts of its hardworking Allstars and close coordination with regulatory agencies.
A Collaborative Effort
“Maintaining daily tasks such as close coordination with each department to meet the allotted ground time, pushing the early departure of first wave of flights, quick turnaround of all flights, early completion of ground support equipment, and the swift coordination with airport and Air Traffic Control (ATC) offices also contributed to our positive OTP,” Isla added.
To further enhance its guests’ travel experience, AirAsia Philippines encourages passengers to take advantage of its convenient online check-in feature, available through the Superapp, via airasia.com, or the self-check-in kiosks located at the airport. Additionally, the airline recommends allotting extra time when traveling to the airport, at least 3 hours for domestic flights and 4 hours for international flights.
