Disasters List v2

The Disasters list has gotten out of hand quickly again, it should really only list major accidents (at least documented ones) - or at least the most important ones. The older version we had was much more suitable in my opinion. Any input here? --Lovebus 11:30, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Destinations

Philippine Airlines operates two hubs in Manila and Cebu, with the majority of routes operating from Manila. The airline flies to destinations in Asia-Pacific, North America and Australia, especially those with large overseas Filipino populations.^{[citation needed]}

PAL currently operates Manila-General Santos as the mainline domestic destination and two non-hub routes, Darwin-Brisbane and Vancouver-Toronto. PAL will operate another non-hub route (Vancouver-New York). In the past, PAL operated a number of domestic and international non-hub routes (most notably Iloilo-General Santos, Bangkok-Delhi, Vancouver-Newark, Vancouver-Las Vegas,Zürich-Paris and Singapore-Jakarta), as well as non-stop services to destinations in Europe and extensive domestic operations; those services were discontinued in light of the Asian financial crisis. Some of its previous domestic operations, namely, service from Manila to Naga, Tuguegarao, and more recently, Ozamiz have been taken over by Airphil Express (PAL Express), while services to others were stopped altogether. In addition, services from Manila to Cebu City, Davao City, Legazpi City, Puerto Princesa, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Cotabato City, Dipolog, Zamboanga City, Dumaguete and Tacloban, while retaining the "PR" flight codes, have been operated by Airphil Express (now PAL Express) on behalf of PAL since March 1, 2014. 121.54.44.88 (talk) 02:06, 20 October 2014 (UTC) ^[1] There are domestic flights from Manila to Cebu and Davao but that is under and operated by PAL Express. General Santos and Kalibo routes were still operated by Philippine Airlines due to tuna cargo and increase of demand. Check PR 454, 453 and EY 3963 and 3964. Thank you.[reply]

Lacking Content

Hello, I've been editing this page for a very long time and has always relied on it as well. However, it seems like most of its content has been moved to new pages. A total of four (histiry, fleet, destinations and accidents) has been moved to different pages, making the page look bare. I suggest reverting back some of the sections? --Hithere442 (talk) 12:36, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

History can't be moved because it would be way too long. Maybe the accidents? Not sure... ITSQUIETUPTOWN talk • contribs 11:51, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article is OK for size it is not particularly small so I would suggest leave it be. MilborneOne (talk) 13:22, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest replacing the "An example of an Economy Class in flight breakfast served for its Manila–Hong Kong flights" picture with the much more recent picture "Economy lunch onboard a Philippine Airlines flight", to be found in Wikimedia Commons under https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Economy_lunch_onboard_a_Philippine_Airlines_flight.jpg . 109.40.128.105 (talk) 00:03, 29 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Can you provide a caption for the image replacement? Preferably different from the title of the image. {{replyto}} Can I Log In's (talk) page 21:31, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Contradicting Net Income

On the net income part of the infobox, it has the "increase" icon while it says there that it is a loss. --JETH888 message me 18:38, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that's the case because PAL reported a smaller loss than the year before, hence the up arrow.

That said, I am working on a massive overhaul of the article. I'm currently doing this on the Spanish Wikipedia, and once that's done I'll move content from there to the English Wikipedia. This article needs a lot of work. --Sky Harbor ^(talk) 01:38, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

43 Destinations excluding subsidiaries

Hello, I counted Philippine Airlines their destination aside from terminated destinations and their their subsidiaries, PAL Express, they have 43 total destinations. I don't know why they have 62 destinations. I'm confused. Apple 3002 (talk) 17:05, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Slogan

Someone remove the slogan part where they are itemized in years used and its tile. Can we put it back. This is a good information for those researching for marketing and ads. There a lot of references for online in case you feel it lacks of.

Merging total number of fleet size

There is one user who disruptly edit this page by merging the number of fleet size from a subsidiary airline. I tried to reverted their edit but kept continuing edit when this page is for the main page only, especially on Philippine Airlines fleet, plus considering there is already a fleet section provided on this page. Any comments about this on how to resolve this issue? Cornerstone2.0 (talk) 15:07, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That user joined just a month ago, explaining their inexperienced attempt to merge the fleet list of said subsidiary airline. They seem to have ignored the warning messages on their talk page. Also, they base their edit summaries on mostly unreliable sources such as FlightRadar24, Planespotters.net, and just recently Simple Flying; some of the red flags to take note. ～ POKéTalker（═◉═） 12:33, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
