Don’t ever fly Zestair. They are the owners of Zest-O which were found to have cockroaches. It says a lot about the company.

I am sorry for your loss. One of our batchmates in high school also died in that crash in 1999. We only learned that our batchmate was among those killed several years ago. We are trying to search for the surviving family of our batchmate. We wonder whether the families of all the deceased still get in touch. I hope to hear from you as we are soon to celebrate the 25th anniversary of our graduation from HS. Please contact me, my name is Mark at unimatrix729@yahoo.com

My father in law died in 1999 Flying Asian Spirit. He was a good man and a Filipino scientist. The money that they gave is nothing. Killing people’s lives because of old tierd disturbed because of several wives and lacking of flying hours and experienced pilot. May God punish you who owns Asian Spirit now Zest Air. This is a warning never ride Zest Air for sure it will happen again. I miss my father in law that my kids had a short time being with him.

Why the hell they bought planes from China? A pirated version of a Russian model plane. Its former brand Asian Spirit bought a plane made in Indonesia. Cant they afford Western planes?

For the record, Zest Air does not use Cebu Pac’s old planes, this is just false.

They’ve slowly been phasing out the old Asian Spirit planes and have been buying brand new planes from China. They’ve also recently acquired a couple of Airbus A320s from the United States.

My earlier comment should read:

Well they sure SHOULD hire old experienced pilots too, to make up for it! I hear a lot of complaints about Asian Spirit.

@Reel Advice, hahaha, that's a really scary thought!!

Hi there!

Accidents and crashes cannot be avoided but looking at the examples of their crashes, it seems that it is due to pilot error or maybe mismanagement of the planes. Someone should so something about this! Their license should be suspended or something!

Anyway, maybe it is refreshing. Its guaranteed you are going to heaven when you ride Zest Air!

Zest Air’s make use of Cebu Pacific’s old planes. Am I right?

I got a scary experience with Cebu Pacific last December when my mom and I flew from Dipolog to Manila.
