JetAsia Airlines Inc. (Previously known as JetAsia Airways) operating as JetAsia Airlines, is a Philippine airlineowned by GCS Prime Holdings founded in November 9 2009 with its hub at Ninoy Aquino International Airport of Manila (MNL) and Mactan-Cebu International Airport of Cebu City. JetAsia Airlines serves domestic cities around Southeast Asia, East Asia, Middle East, Oceania and North America.
Formerly one of the most strongest competitor of formely demised Jahz Airlines whose dominating the market of Philippines and Asia, was severely affected by the strong price wars of both sides. That eventually forced JetAsia to fight back with good services, add new route and long haul planes servicing Middle East, Oceania and North America.
Eventually resumed in June 2011 with a ambitious plan of all wide body fleet and all long haul airline after a year of hiatus but eventually still went downsizing it to narrow body fleet using Boeing 737-900ER due to unpredictable passenger demand of long haul flights.
