He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:

 During the first few months of the Philippines' community quarantine, only cargo flights were allowed to operate, and now this stream accounts for 66 per cent of revenue in Q3 2020, as compared to 8 per cent during the same period last year.
Despite the decrease in flight count due to current travel restrictions, CEB's cargo operations have remained active to ensure transport of goods is not hampered.
CEB recently modified one of its A330-300 into an all-cargo configuration, removing seats so that cargo can be carried in the main deck.
