No different than Cebu pacific as far as performance (on-time or service) or aircraft. They also fly out of NAIA3 in Manila (as does Cebu Pacific).

Flew them lots back when they were Asian Spirit.

They primarily fly Airbus A319/320s with a couple of Chinese Xian MA60s (like the DASH-7) for the short strip airports or low density, short haul flights.

They are OK for a bus in the sky.

Used them in the Phils. Nothing great or terrible about their service. They do, however, cancel flights if they're not half? 3/4? full, but they don't tell you that...They simply say your flight is 'delalyed' and keep you waiting until the next scheduled flight when the plane is fuller, basically merging the two different flights. It kinda sucked because we had to wait for 3 hours for a 45 minute flight. Confused

I've flown Zest a few times and it's fine. Not the best but not bad, though flight delays are common but that goes with any airline in the Phils.

You can also try Tiger Airways and Air Asia, which have boosted their presence in the Phils.
