BAGUIO CITY - After heavily investing to open its air route in this mountain resort city, the management of the Sky Pasada temporarily suspended its operations in all flight routes while it corrects safety issues of its aircrafts upon orders of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) for much safer air travel.
In an advisory to the various agencies and media outfits in Northern Luzon, Ramon Guico III, Sky Pasada president and chief executive officer, said in accordance with the directive of CAAP for the improvement and safety specifications of their aircrafts, LET-410, the airline company decided to suspend its operations for the meantime for all its routes in order to prevent the imposition of stiffer sanctions on its fleet by the regulating agency.
The company official apologized to the flying public for the inconvenience brought about by the temporary suspension of their operations but added normal airline operations will resume as soon as all safety concerns of the CAAP have been appropriately addressed.
