3rd in the World
February 25, 2008 — PeterThis is another slap on the face of Save Our Skies (SOS) coalition which is opposing the entry of foreign air carriers in the country via the “open skies” regime. SOS raises the bogey that this would kill the domestic airlines.
Well, here’s another proof that SOS is lying like the Palace occupant.
The Philippines ranked 3rd in the world in air travel growth after India and Mexico. Our No. 1 airline Cebu Pacific recorded a whooping 47 percent growth rate. And this happened in spite of four years already of the Clark experiment on “open skies.”
Proves once more that the fears of SOS are unfounded.
