It pioneered the feeder airport operations in the country direct from Manila. It also was the first airline to fly to Caticlan and Busuanga airports. It was the first airline which promoted Boracay as a foreign tourist destination. It flew regular flights to Kalibo, Dipolog, Tagbilaran, San Jose, Ormoc and Surigao. It also flew to Bagabag, Catarman, Basco, El Nido, and Cuyo.[5]
