Cebu Pacific (CEB), the Philippines’ largest airline, on Sunday said its cabin crew is now fully vaccinated.

“We are very pleased to share this news with everyone as we prepare to ramp up our domestic network to cater to the pent-up travel demand. CEB continues to boost its safety protocols and we know having a fully vaccinated crew will strengthen the trust and confidence of the public in air travel,” said Felix Lopez, vice-president for People Department at Cebu Pacific.

CEB employees received free inoculation for themselves and their dependents, as well as third-party workers, such as check-in agents and bag handlers.
