Pacific Global One Aviation (PG1) has become the first company in the Philippines to receive certification from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines, increasing the maximum take off weight of its Bell 429 from 7,000lbs to 7,500lbs. This represents a 25 per cent payload increase, a substantial gain in aircraft capacity that translates to an increase in flexibility in terms of the number of passengers, cargo, range and safety.

The PG1 fleet consists of twin engine aircraft comprising a Super King Air 350, a Bell 429 and a AW 139. Currently it offers local air charters and transfers, aerial tours, medical evacuation and aircraft management.

2020 looks to be an exciting year, as the company is set to launch its new branding mid-2020, along with exciting partnerships and offers for its clients. This initiative is said to epitomise the mission of PG1 to constantly improve and offer unique experiences. “We are on to bigger and greater things as we begin a new year and a new decade,” says president Rene Meily. “We are proud of what we’ve accomplished and excited about what we can achieve.”
