Sunlight Air adds ATR 72-600 to fleet, expands island routes

The turboprop aircraft landed at Clark International Airport on Oct. 3, 2025, and began commercial operations on Oct. 26. It joins the airline’s three ATR 72-500s, enhancing capacity and fuel efficiency for short regional routes.

“It’s been a long time coming, and we’re ecstatic to announce our latest addition of the ATR 72-600,” said Ryna Brito-Garcia, CEO of Sunlight Air. “This new aircraft is only one manifestation of the airline’s growth over the past few years, and this fleet expansion comes in line with our plans to continuously improve Sunlight Air’s services and eventually expand our route offerings.”
