A Deep-Dive Into The 2022 Fleet Of Philippine Airlines 

Even with the Vancouver fuel stop, PAL is still the fastest option for Manila to NYC. The A350's more humid cabin is a big help with this very long distance.

PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO FLEET OF CEBU PACIFIC THE LOW COST CARRIER OF THE PH

No way I'm flying PAL again! It's ridiculously annoying how they do security checks - not very consistent!

What happened to PAL's Manila to London route?

I believe that PAL will replace of 777 to A350-1000, but the 777x has the big chances if New Manila International Airport operates by 2026, PAL will purchase of Boeing 777x in the future

2nd

The first plane I remember flying on was a PAL 747-400 back in the 90s when we immigrated to the US. And bitter-sweetly, the last 747 I’ve flown on was a PAL domestic flight from CEB-MNL. Mabuhay to the queen of the skies!

In a short to mid term perspective, the A350s would be the viable solution given that it is already in production and PAL has been using it which is already familiar to its pilots. Although, it is no denying that 777s are vital in the operations and growth of the airline because of its good mix of capacity and range. Moving forward, with the aircraft that they currently have, I think that the airline should focus more on revamping their cabin products especially on their 777s and narrow bodies.

Lots'a love, cheers, & Mabuhay, from tropical Philippines!

I have flied Philippines from London to Manila . Yeah triple seven! Best flight ever! Also from Milan to Manila. That time with 340. Excellent flight. Thank You so so much Philippine!!!

As a lucky kiddo who has flown on the 747 and the A340, I can say that the crew are friendly and accommodating. I also love the little design elements that they incorporate to have that traditional motif.

I set out on a flight from Davao to Sydney, Australia, and herein lies the story. The plane left Davao headed for Manila approximately two hours late due to weather delays. My connecting flight was due to leave Manila just under an hour before my plane landed there. To my total surprise and overwhelming relief, PAL staff were waiting and rushed through Manila airport and onto the plane that they had keep waiting for my arrival. The plane arrived in Sydney at its scheduled arrival time. THAT IS SERVICE SECOND TO NONE !!!

Interesting fact is that PAL flies A350s and 777s domestically

For new planes, it makes more sense for PR to go with the 350 instead of the 777x both for range (Same reason for SQ given the geography) and for type rating/CCQ with the a320 family and a330, two planes that will never be given up given how important they are for domestic routes. Just that right now, the 77W makes sense just as much as it does for everyone else.

Thank you simple flying for making this video it is so nice to finally make this video🥰👍

The airline will always be very close to me. Living in Hawaii, I always loved flying on the A330 to visit family in the Philippines. Also had the chance to fly on the 747-400 which was an amazing experience.

Ah yes! My long awaited requested video. You have earned a subscriber. Kudos to the video!!❤🖤

I know live here in Canada but before I moved with my family, we used Philippine Airlines if we don’t go through any layovers. Always the nice 777 from Vancouver to Manila, though the seats are a bit lower compared to other carriers I’ve been to like Korean Air. Would like to fly other aircraft of Philippine Airlines especially the A350 and A330s.

I have been a fan of aviation for a long time and have been watching your channel for quite some time now. Guess what? This is exactly what i have been waiting. Thank you!

Finally! Hope you can make Cebu Pacific fleet soon! Also, I would've flown with them by 2020 if weren't for the pandemic.

OMGGGGGG I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! 😫❤️

They're decent, if only they could provide more space in their A320s. Cebu pacific has a roomier economy seat in their A320 and its cheaper. Lastly, their livery is boring. Just a flag on the tail and a generic font.

Malaysia airlines next please 🙌

Absolutley love the Philippines and Philippines airlines is amazing service.

I remembered that my Mom flew with several other retired PAL aircrafts like the 747-400 and the A340-300, sad that I didn't get to see these behemoths with the Nation's flag, but, she was surprised that she flew on aircrafts that have been retired. Also, her last flight with PAL is an A330-300.

Nice video as usual, From the Philippines here. Hope to see you also do Cebu Pacific’s fleet soon…

Just recently flown with them from DOH-MNL with their A330. it's comfortable and the crew is really friendly. Great food too for Premium Economy Class passengers! Their A330s in the Middle East don't have Onboard Internet Wifi though.

Simple Flying Pls Make a Video about the Total Fleet of the Competitor of Philippine Airlines. Cebu Pacific pls do a Video about it in this Channel

As great this airline seems, we cannot forget about PAL 434 in 1994.

Niceeee my flag carrier

I do hope to fly in PAL by next year, they are aiming again serve again Baguio City Loakan Airport, the destination of their first ever flight by Christmas 2022 but this time it will be from Cebu instead of Manila.

Nice that you picked the airline I take a lot

Let's maintain the fleet... Again, and again, and again!

PAL flight Lax to Mnl is not good. Planes are too old just like you mentioned 13 yrs old. Flew with them 2x last year they need to upgrade badly. They are left behind by other airlines.

Would really love to see a B777X fleet for Pal as it could increase its passenger capacity and have the same range as their current B773 though the timeline delivery would be a bit of a problem if ever they would really order.

No disrespect intended, but I wish they would dress up the "Philippines" with a more dynamic font or coloring. Make it larger, possibly, like the way Pan Am did with their billboard livery. The tail and winglets are magnificent though. 🌈✨️

Pilot: The Earth is FLAT, No kidding Globe model is a fracking LIE.

PHILIPPINE AIRLINES HAS MORE CANCELED FLIGHTS THAN ANY OTHER AIRLINES DUE TO POOR AIRPLANES MAINTENANCE. THEY ARE HAVING FLIGHT CLEARANCE IN AMERICA. THINK ABOUT THE SAFETY OF YOUR LIFE.

I am a Filipino citizen and I work in the UAE. I always look forward to the days when I get to board our flag carrier, PAL! This route however is serviced by their 777 fleet. Anyway, I hope that they will consider adding the Dreamliner in their fleet especially if cost-cutting is concerned hand-in-hand with modernization. Glad that they are considering the 777x though, and hopefully they'll consider getting those new Airbus Wide Body and Long Range planes coming up too!

I don't like the words, "deep dive" on the title of a video about airplanes.

Hoping they’ll have a SEA-MNL route. Many Fil-Ams in the PNW outside of BC. It’ll also complement the folks connecting at a SEA.

Beautiful presentation!👍

Thank you simple flying for this video. So much appreciated

Simple flying also would say “PR is a prime airline to order A321XLR’s to replace the A330 and B777 because that’s what everyone wants.”

proud to be a citizen of the republic of the philippines TRULY ASIA'S FIRST, FROM THE HEART OF THE FILIPINO

1:18 The 777-300ER and A350-900 are also big jets.

Do Cebu Pacific or AirAsia Philippines

I remember flying with PAL (Philippine Airlines) to Manila around June in 2015 (before my class starts), together with my cousin. That trip was to go to my relatives and there is any important papers that are related for me. The first PAL aircraft (to Manila) was an A320ceo (with a residue on a L1 door, presumably used for the Philippine president/Vice president). It was my first time to fly that plane with an overhead IFE, since me and my relatives usually flew only without IFE on board. Also on board, the food choices were small and instead eating a Quaker snack bar, I drink only a coffee, even I was 14 years old at that time. Also at the same time, I have a problem of my ears. I carefully wear their headphone and didn’t volume up the audio so my ears won’t be hurt or whatsoever.I also found out that the earphone that I have is different from the ones the airline provide (I thought they didn’t provide, but I was wrong). The second PAL aircraft (back to Davao) was their (then) new A321ceo. It was my first flight with a stretcher variant of the A320 family & it has a Shakrlet. I was disappoint to see that they don’t have an IFE on board (except for Business Class that the airline provide an Ipad). Even it was a disappointment flight, at least it wasn’t another A320ceo’s. Also, I order the same beverage (of course a coffee).

instead of giving up 4 of it's brand new A350-900 wide body jets the Philippine full service carrier should have retired half of it's A330-300 & A320-200 fleet . . .

Took my first vacation to the Philippines on Philippine Airlines from Toronto to Manila and back. Can’t really compare with other airlines as this is was my first time flying but my experience was great with them. The legroom was good, the flight attendants were nice and the food was really tasty. Will definitely fly with them again on my next vacation.

We, Filipinos are very proud of our flag carrier’s airlines and Cebu Pacific as well. Thank you Simple flying!

I would like to see you review Cebu Pacific 😁

I was recently on a PAL a321 flight from Melbourne to Manila. Was 8.5 hours. They do send the a321 to SYD as well I believe.

Back 2019 we loved it, yyz to mnl but after this pandemic it's too expensive compared to others, they should have some kind of pricing for their own citizen. "Sana all PAL" then 2022, I flew with other Asian airlines and we still had fun. If the price is competitive then yah I don't mind flying with them. A350 will be the ideal it's all about passengers comfort and safety.

Been flying PAL most of my domestic and international flights. Really great! Flight from LA to MNL was great!

I flew with them from Vancouver to Manila in April and it was a very pleasant experience, both ways. I'm happy though they didn't drop the New York and Toronto services during restructuring, which was one possibility they were exploring. When I go in 2023, I hope to go from Toronto instead.

They need the 777X for their trans-pacific flights for more passenger and cargo capacity.

So early man hasn't even enabled the comments yet

my first international flight in1982 was the 747 mnl-hnl-lax

Would be nice if a USA based airline had flights to Manila or at a minimum PAL join an alliance. Had a wretched time last month flying PAL international into the Philippines and around the islands last month. Great crew however, the hard product has much to be desired.

garuda Indonesia please

The only airline that is very close to my heart ❤️ fly high PAL!

Philippine airlines only have 7 777-300er now

I just got off my Philippine Airlines flight a few hours ago. The flight was from BNE to MNL on flight number 222 on an Airbus A321-271N registered RP-C9936. It has the refurbished cabin interior. It departed from Brisbane at 11:00 am and arrived at 5:30 pm on 16/12/23.

I am still inside the terminal concourse at Ninoy Aquino International Airport waiting to board my flight bound for Kuala Lumpur on flight number 529 on an Airbus A32?-2?? Registered RP-C99??.

Everytime i see PAL i was reminded w/my first airplane ride the PAL boeing 737 from Manila-Davao,i cried 'cause my ear aches when it taked off 😅😅😅,then my 1st international flight to LA in an boeing 747.......how time flies now both of this planes were retired.....but my latest ride was A-a350 in my own opinion a worthy torch bearer of PAL.

Junk airline … bad service .. rude crew.. expect delays .. expensive .. ground crew are thieves…

believe it or not, they actually use their widebodies for domestic services, e.g PR454/453

Economy on the A350 was really quite good. First time I was able to sleep on an airplane. Took it from Manila to NY.

they ordered 9 new a350-1000s and deliveries will start in 2025! more a321neos are to be delivered so once that is completed they might transfer the old a321s to the domestic line, and 2 a330s and existing a350s are to be refreshed. let's see the fate of the 777 in a year or two but they honestly have to go, they're really old and apparently a good amount of the seats are broken already.

I flew AMS-DOH-CEB. the DOH-CEB was with the 777-300.

Flew with A PAL a330 back then enroute to hong kong back in 2017 It was good cant tell what the seat was like but pretty good

Get rid of the triple 7s, get more Airbus.

Why did they replace the a330s with CF6 engines? All of their a330s have Trent engines

I know you just came out of bankruptcy but for the love PAL please change that horrible font in your livery for Philippines, it looks like someone just used Word and called it a day.

The font they use for the black lettering of "Philippines" looks like it was created with MS Word. So tacky, I hope they can at least use the "It's more fun in the Philippines" font or update it with more character somehow.

This was good to watch. I am flying Pal express dash 8s soon and I am an anxious flyer. Good to know they’re young!

U forgot about pal’s a350 and 777-300er routes to europe like greece, paris,frankfurt, etc.

Mabuhay!

Mabuhay

They must have added some fuel tanks because they are not stopping in Vancouver anymore.

I remember flying with 747 from Cebu to Manila 😃

To more layover with PAL. love lots, -LTP familu

Philippine airline byaheng manila to Saudi palitan nyo nmn ng malaking eroplano hira umupo ang liliit ng space ng upuan..laki na ng kita nyo palitan nyo nmn ng malaki..

When are philipine airlines going to fly from the UK again as many dont want to step foot in arab lands that have been stressing citizens and many dont want to even step foot in such places on the way?

Why are there no European destinations like London or Amsterdam?

I had experience flown by PAL in 2021 Manila to Riyadh flying the old A330 its has no inflight entertainment. I don't know why PAL flight bound to middle east riyadh doha dubai damman there using old aircraft A330 not the upgrade version tri class while the bound to north america using B777 & A350 they equipped with inflight entertainment in both business class & economy. ITS SO UNFAIR it should be all routes have inflight entertainment any type of aircraft except the turbo prop so to be fair

their flight attendants needs more train when it comes to service the worst flight attendants ive ever encountered .

We (Pinoys) have a dogma, Never fly PAL.

I had a chance of flying PAL's BAC1-11 back in 1986 when I was younger, MNL-JKT

Please do SAS

My mom works at PAL /Philippine Airlines And its just 3k php for each passenger my parents and bro and sis and me so thats 5 so yeah and in phil for normal passenger its 30 or 40k php for each passenger i think if my mom did not work at pal it would be 200k

Kelan kaya magkakaron ang pinas ng A-380 Airbus?

3:27-3:51 you forgot Jakarta and Bali. 9:00-9:10 none because it's not very possible at this time

:0 Philippine airlines 😊

I have flown on Philippine Airlines three of the four times I have visited the Philippines. All my flights have been PR113 and PR112 LAX-MNL and MNL- LAX. My last trip was the worse experience I had with Philippine Airlines and probably be my last time using the airlines they informed me Friday morning that my Monday flight on PR112 has changed to the Airbus 330 which had a technical stop in Seoul when I found out Friday morning I reached out to the Airlines all weekend long trying to figure out how I was going to make my flight to Las Vegasand told them that I would miss my flight from LAX to LAS because of this change and they told me don't worry when you get to LAX they'll be a in Transit person will help you but when I got there there was nobody there to help me. The flight landed 10 minutes after my flight from LAX to LAS departed. I ended up renting a car and driving home to Las Vegas. I spent an extra $400 on the supposedly non-stop flights not a technical stop that I booked back in April but did I get anything from Philippine Airlines all I got was a stinking sorry excuse apology email from the airlines.

very nice

Woah, I've not heard of this MNL-ICN-LAX-HNL-MNL route by A330s. I was under the impression MNL-LAX was direct and exclusively served by 777s. And I guess I'd fly the A330 ones as I believe they are newer and they have a premium economy product at least.

Please also review Cebu Pacifics Fleet.

I hope you peek into Cebu Pac's fleet. I know many people want to see the all economy A330 neo.
