Is Cebu Pacific safe?
Philippines' largest carrier. One fatal accident in its history: Flight 387 (1998, DC-9, 104 deaths). No fatal accidents in the 27 years since, across a young all-Airbus fleet.

Operator safety tier
Strong
Modelled fatal-accident risk on the order of 1 in 9.1 million flights.
A model estimate from validated signals (the dominant factor in a flight's safety), not a measurement of this airline's own flight history. IOSA-registered; last fatal accident 1998 (28y ago); rating tempered, too little flight record yet to earn a top rating (an absence of accidents is not yet proof of safety). Full methodology.
