Philippine low-cost carrier Cebu Pacific announced that it successfully renewed its IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) registry.
This renewal reaffirms the airline’s long-standing commitment to safety in light of its ongoing expansion and rapid growth.
This marks the airline’s first renewal under the more stringent Risk-Based IOSA, a data-driven approach introduced by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to enhance the assessment of airline safety.
Cebu Pacific initially earned its IOSA registration in 2018 and has consistently passed the biennial audit since.
According to airline chief operations officer Javier Massot: “The IOSA renewal reflects the strength of our internal safety processes and the culture of excellence we uphold in our operations. Safety has always been at the core of what we do, and we are proud to meet global benchmarks as we continue to expand our network.”

In addition, Cebu Pacific has also merited global recognition for its overall safety performance.
Earlier this month, AirlineRatings.com named the airline one of the world’s Safest Low-Cost Carriers (LCCs), citing its strong safety record, low incident rate, and investment in a modern fleet.
As part of its ongoing fleet modernisation, the airline signed a purchase agreement with Airbus for up to 152 A320neo aircraft last year, the largest in Philippine aviation history.
The purchase further supports Cebu Pacific’s transition to an all-NEO fleet focused on fuel efficiency and sustainability.
