PAL Flies 3rd 77W Down Under

Upgrade starts June 30

May 22, 2012

Philippine Airlines will fly again its Boeing 777-300ER on all Australian services from June 30, 2012 onwards.

The new Boeing 777 will replace the Airbus A340 currently used by the airline on flights from Sydney and Melbourne.

Philippine Airlines previously used a Boeing 777 on the Sydney-Manila route from 2010, before the aircraft was swapped unto PAL's Vancouver services.

The new aircraft sports 42 seats in Mabuhay Class (business class) in a largely 2-3-2 layout.

Designed by Recaro, each is 20 inches wide with a 78 inch seat pitch. The lie-flat seats recline up to 150 degrees.

In economy or Fiesta Class there are 328 seats of 18.5 inch width and a pitch of 33-34 inches.

A Panasonic inflight entertainment system offers audio and video on demand in every seat, with USB ports for keeping your smartphone or tablet powered up during the flight.

  1. Kahit puro bago eroplano gamitin kung di masaya ang pasahero sa frontline service sa airport and sa inflight meals hindi na babalik at uulit sumakay sila.

    WE ARE THE SOLUTION! REINSTATE THE DEDICATED PALEA REGULAR EMPLOYEES! BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF PAL!

  2. 777 to pal sucks shit compare to Singapore airlines, Qatar , Emirates and even Etihad. i have tried the whole fleet to Philippine airlines, eventhough its a brand new 777 its not comfortable and even the inflight entertainment sucks. and 2-3-2 in business, what the fuck? it should be 2-2-2 or 1-2-1.

    the cabincrew are nice, but they need new uniforms. it looks to old.

  3. of course PAL sucks compared to SQ, QATAR Emirates and Etihad, ang galing mo naman, If you are fully subsidized by your 1st world country like those airlines, and if you are middle eastern based like etihad emirates qatar and only pay .25 cents to the Dollar that all other carriers pay, wouldn't PAL also become a top notch carrier? an lakas lakas mo mang insulto di mo naman na consider ung mga un, dapat tumahimik ka nalang, you know what sucks? your pea brain sucks

  4. What, 2-2-2 configuration? That's a suicide attempt for Philippine airlines serving a particular market. Even SQ today is struggling so better know first airline economics before demanding such seat configuration.
