Philippine Airlines (PAL) has taken delivery of its third Airbus A350-1000, expanding its long-haul fleet ahead of additional services on its Manila-San Francisco route, as reported by BusinessWorld.
The aircraft is part of PAL's initial order for nine Airbus A350-1000s and is expected to enter commercial service after completing necessary preparations. The arrival comes as the carrier prepares to increase flight frequencies to the United States, capitalizing on growing travel demand.
PAL's fleet expansion underscores its commitment to strengthening its North American network. The A350-1000, known for its fuel efficiency and passenger comfort, will support the airline's strategy to offer more premium seats on long-haul routes.
