All equipment to prepare the aircraft for departure - baggage tractors, lower deck loaders, pushback tractors and bridge-mounted ground power units - were operated with electric power. “This milestone shows our strong commitment to decarbonizing our operations and supporting airports that share the same sustainability goals,” Cebu Pacific chief operations officer, Javier Massot, said. “We are proud to be the first airline in the Philippines to fully turn around an aircraft using electric equipment. It is even more meaningful that it was done in Cebu - the place where our airline began.”
