Have you ever wondered how many people fly on airplanes every day? Well, AirAsia Philippines, a budget airline, shared some exciting news about their flights in the first half of 2025!
From January to June this year, AirAsia flew nearly 3 million passengers. That means almost 3 million people traveled on their planes! When an airline fills 85% of its seats on every flight, it shows they are doing a great job. This is called a “high load factor,” which means most seats are taken, and the airline is working efficiently.
Most of these travelers, about 80%, flew inside the Philippines. The most popular place to visit was Puerto Princesa, a beautiful city known for its amazing beaches and natural wonders. Steve Dailisan, who talks for AirAsia, said this shows that many people want to explore local places and enjoy Filipino festivals and culture.
To help more people travel, AirAsia is running special events called the AirAsia Fiesta Series, which includes promotions linked to local festivals. These encourage Filipinos to visit different parts of the country and join in the fun.
But AirAsia doesn’t only fly inside the Philippines. Many passengers are also flying to other countries. Among these, Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan, is the most popular international spot. Because more people want to go there, AirAsia will add more flights to Taipei starting July 1, increasing trips from 14 times a week to 17 times a week! This helps travelers have more choices and makes it easier for people going on vacation or business trips.
To make flying even more exciting, AirAsia is having a big seat sale. You can buy tickets for as low as 185 pesos for a one-way trip! This special offer lasts until June 1, and you can use the tickets for trips all the way until October 31.
So if you love to travel or want to visit cool places in the Philippines or nearby countries, this might be the perfect time to book your flight with AirAsia!
