Cebu Pacific noted this week that it is now the Philippines' largest airline based on number of passengers flown on domestic and international routes. According to Civil Aeronautics Board data, CEB flew 2.45 million total passengers in the first quarter, nearly 110,000 more than Philippine Airlines, which carried 2.34 million systemwide during the period. CEB became the No. 1 domestic carrier last year when it captured just over 50% of the market and it held a 51% domestic share in the first quarter.
