Sunlight targets overseas routes

Domestic boutique carrier Sunlight Air plans to mount international flights as early as 2027, as it targets to be the go-to airline for local and foreign tourists visiting the country’s most popular island getaways.

Sunlight Air Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Ryna Brito-Garcia said the airline is positioning itself to be a major tourism driver, and that means expanding its passenger base beyond domestic flyers.

“It's very important for us that we bring more people to the different island destinations of our country,” Brito-Garcia told reporters last week.

“So, if that means bringing in more foreign travelers into our islands, then that's the best that can possibly happen for Sunlight Air,” she added.
