Lone boutique airline in the PH Sunlight Air soars to its 7th anniversary

What started as a means to transport travelers to Coron in 2020 has now evolved into a partnership strengthened by years of trust and quality service, an expanded route and updated fleet, and a renewed commitment to connect travelers to underserved destinations across the Philippines. 

After getting hit with challenges left and right since its launch, boutique airline Sunlight Air is still soaring strong, fueled by its goal to deliver its unique brand of hospitality and service to more passengers. 

“We’re very proud to say that Sunlight Air is the only boutique airline in the Philippines, not because it makes the airline appear more ‘unique’, but because it is a testament to how we have overcome — and continuously overcome the challenges most boutique airlines are prone to. Despite the pandemic and fluctuating fuel prices, we have maintained the service standards that distinguished Sunlight Air from the beginning: a no-overbooking policy, wider legroom and complimentary inflight snacks, and a network exclusively serving domestic island destinations, rounding out a comfortable boutique experience on every flight,” shared Ryna Brito-Garcia, CEO of Sunlight Air.

Since its launch, the airline now flies from its hub in Clark to Caticlan, Siargao, and Coron, and to Coron, Siargao, and Siquijor from Cebu. With its fleet of ATR-600s and ATR-700, Sunlight Air operates daily flights, bringing even more travelers to well-loved island destinations across the country. The airline has also seen success with its Sunlight Vacations program that bundles accommodations and tours with flights for easier booking, and a FlyFam program that prioritizesfamilies first, with free flights for infants and added assistance to improve the overall travel experience.

To celebrate its 7th year with the community that supported and propelled Sunlight Air to where it is today, the airline will be hosting a series of activities in the weeks following its anniversary on July 22. Customers can look forward to an on-ground anniversary celebration at the Mactan-Cebu International Airport and Fuente Osmeña Park this July 21-22, where travelers and pedestrians can enjoy fun activities and win prizes.

From its first route to Coron to its newest direct route to Siquijor, travelers can also enjoy Sunlight Air’s unique brand of service and hospitality at great deals this July 22 – 23, 2026. Customers can book ₱99 one-way base fare flights to all destinations, and get 15% off on Value and Plus fares to all Sunlight Air destinations with the promo code 7SOARING.

This is just the beginning of a series of surprises Sunlight Air will be unveiling to celebrate its 7th year. On top of promo fares and giveaways, passengers can look forward to new routes in the near future, tapping into more of the Philippines’ beautiful provinces.
