Cebu Pacific hiring foreign pilots to fly its Airbus A330s


MANILA, Philippines - Cebu Pacific, hard-pressed to find suitable local candidates, is hiring another batch of foreign pilots to fly its present and coming Airbus A330 long-range planes.

The Gokongwei airline has tapped two aviation recruitment companies, Ryan Aviation and Contractair, to screen candidates for captain and first officer positions for immediate hiring.

Cebu Pacific currently has 45 foreign pilots on regular positions, less than ten percent of its flight crew, said an airline official who asked not to be identified by name.

Cebu Pacific has been employing foreign pilots since 2011, when the budget carrier embarked on a major expansion, having flown more than 10 million passengers the year before.
