Still off the high of Philippine Airlines welcoming and operating the first flights using its new A350-1000, the Philippine aviation industry comes into 2026 with some setbacks:
- Royal Air Philippines suspending its commercial passenger flights on JAN 4, 2026
- Air France and ZIPAIR Tokyo announcing they will be suspending their flights to/from Manila
However on the bright side:
- Manila's Ninoy Aquino Airport is getting new immigration/check-in kiosks
- Philippine Airlines is expanding its presence in the Western Pacific with routes to Saipan and Palau starting MAR 29
- Cebu Pacific to add direct flights to Riyadh from Manila from MAR 1

2025 was a big year for Starlink which is more and more becoming the future choice of inflight Wi-Fi.
Starlink added big name airline partners like Emirates and South Korea's Hanjin Group (Korean Air/Asiana).
We can expect more airline partner announcements with them in 2026.
I personally have yet to get the chance to fly aboard a Starlink-equipped aircraft. Hopefully this year it will happen.

I will say props to Airbus for its handling of the recent A320 groundings, along with the airlines and aviation regulators.

A few months ago, I completed a personal aviation bucket list item.
By far my favorite flight I have featured on this channel, and I hope you enjoy this as much as I did making (and flying aboard) the Flying Honu.

Maybe in an alternate universe the A330 is bigger than the A380.

Recently United Airlines announced upgrades to its check-in lobby at the Guam Antonio B Won Pat International Airport.
I also got the chance to fly through there on a flight that I am currently working on a flight report for, and check out the ongoing work. Looks great.

WHICH SAN JOSE?
If booking travel to the city of San Jose, pay attention to which airport you are booking your flight to.
There are two cities in the Philippines with the name, and each in two Latin American countries - Mexico and Costa Rica.
The busiest of the four five airports is San Jose Mineta Airport in the San Francisco Bay Area, US.
The name is common throughout places around the world with Hispanic influence, especially after the centuries of colonization of the Philippines, Mexico, and Costa Rica by Spain.
