The 414-seater A330 represents a 50% hike in seat capacity over the A321.The substantial increase in cargo capacity is seen to benefit a number of Davao cargo forwarders.

“The upgrade in aircraft will allow us to carry more passengers and cargo, while offering quality inflight service,” said Victor Suarez, PAL’s area head for Mindanao.PAL used to operate wide-body aircraft at Davao to accommodate the volume of perishable cargo bound for abroad. During peak travel season, such as last December-January, PAL deploys the A330 on the Davao-Manila route.

The bigger capacity will also address the anticipated demand for more seats due to increased daily traffic between Davao and Manila brought about by the business and leisure travel.
