PAL Flights Hurt Philippine Business
« on: August 04, 2010, 09:30:33 AM »
source: PNA - The Iloilo Business Club (IBC) here is keen on monitoring the developments on the canceled flights of the Philippine Airlines (PAL), especially in Iloilo City.

IBC executive director Leah Lara said that the business community here wants to make sure that the problems will not affect the flow of economy and business transactions significantly.

She said that potential investors were worried if their flight schedules are suddenly canceled or rescheduled just because there are not enough pilots to man the plane.

Lara said that this type of problem in the aviation could send a wrong message in the business world. It is bad for business, she said. The world business community will be watching the development in the country's air transports, she said

Air transport is very expensive and people are mostly traveling for business purpose, Lara said. "I don’t think PAL can compensate these losses in business opportunities," she said.

Meanwhile, Lara also lauded the initiative of the national government for stepping in to address the PAL flight cancelation and its problems with their pilots.

At least 19 domestic flights were canceled since Saturday as PAL pilots resigned en mass, recently.

Eight flights were canceled on Sunday, including a Manila-Iloilo-Manila (PR147/148) route. While a Manila-Iloilo-Manila flight (PR145/146) which was scheduled to depart for Iloilo at 4:20 p.m. was rescheduled to 6:30.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
