flyadeal and Cebu Pacific announce strategic partnership
Post Views: 41 flyadeal and Cebu Pacific signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore joint strategic commercial initiatives. The historic agreement covers a wide range of opportunities in commercial cooperation and support in aircraft maintenance and engineering. The first phase of the MoU will see flyadeal take delivery of two Cebu Pacific Airbus A320 aircraft on a wet-lease arrangement for the upcoming summer peak flying season in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Reciprocally, Cebu Pacific is examining wet- leasing flyadeal A320s during the busy winter period in southeast Asia at the end of the year. The agreement was signed at a joint Press Conference held in Manila today at which flyadeal Chief Executive Officer Steven Greenway and Cebu Pacific CEO Mike Szucs outlined plans for a phased cooperation beginning with the wet-lease arrangement. Talks between the two airlines began earlier this year following a visit by Greenway and a flyadeal delegation to Manila to learn more about Cebu Pacific's A330-900neo operations. flyadeal, the Middle East's fastest growing airline, recently announced plans to venture into the long-haul market with an order for 10 A330 widebodies to be deployed between Saudi Arabia and the Philippines, and across southeast Asia from 2027. Greenway said: 'Today's agreement is momentous as it marks flyadeal's first ever strategic airline partnership. It was clear and obvious that flyadeal could learn a lot from Cebu Pacific's experience of low-cost long-haul operations given we will be inducting the same A330-900neos into our fleet in just two years' time. There are great benefits in sharing technical knowledge, training and best practice in preparation for our A330 induction and, of course, we are both A320 operators. 'This was the starting point for wide-ranging commercial discussions covering a broad range of areas including more immediate needs of wet-leasing aircraft for flyadeal's busy upcoming summer season. A win, win situation all round to bring in Cebu Pacific aircraft during our peak period and vice versa for Mike and his team to explore taking our aircraft for their winter peak later this year.' Szucs explained: 'With Cebu Pacific's growing fleet, we seek to maximse the potential of our increased capacity through all months of the year. The utilisation of our capacity by other carriers during our lean season is a way of achieving that. 'This partnership with flyadeal highlights Cebu Pacific's growing capability to support international carriers through wet leasing and broader operational collaboration It diversifies our revenue streams and further expands Cebu Pacific's presence beyond the Asia Pacific region.' Both CEOs said their respective teams will meet frequently to map out the joint commercial plans over the next few months. Manila-based Cebu Pacific, Asia's first low-cost airline, has built a strong network within the Philippines, across the region and developed an ever-growing long-haul presence since its inaugural flight almost 30 years ago. Just seven years old, Jeddah-based flyadeal is predominately a Saudi Arabian domestic scheduled airline operating 38 narrow body Airbus A320s, a fleet set to triple in size to over 100 aircraft within five years that includes its new widebody operations.

Greenway Provides Cultivation and Market Update
KINGSVILLE, ON, May 9, 2025 /CNW/ - Greenway Greenhouse Cannabis Corporation (CSE: GWAY) (OTCQB: GWAYF) ("Greenway" or the "Company"), a cultivator of high-quality greenhouse cannabis for the Canadian market, today announced it has applied to Health Canada for new dedicated propagation space at the Leamington, Ontario facility, which should help increase the number of batches the facility can grow annually, and provided an update on current market dynamics. Greenway has applied through Health Canada to create new dedicated propagation and vegetation space at its current cultivation facility located in Leamington, Ontario. This new space is meant to be utilized for mid-stream propagation, allowing Greenway to gain space and time efficiencies in their flowering rooms. By doing this, the Company believes it will be able to increase the amount of biomass the facility can throughput annually and should help Greenway move toward its goal of having six full crop rotations every year. "We are always looking for new ways to increase our efficiency and lower our costs, and changing over this space will better equip us to achieve both of those goals," said Carl Mastronardi, President of Greenway. "We have found by giving our cuttings coming over from our nursery more time to become acclimated to the greenhouse environment before moving into the flowering stage, we receive higher production from our premium genetics. By having this new dedicated space, we can make sure that the plants remain in the most optimized environment for each stage of their development. Space and timing efficiencies are one of the ways we can continue to make incremental progress as a grower." Supply and Wholesale Price Update Greenway continues to see positive signs that the wholesale domestic and international markets are rebounding from the lows of 2023. The Company's revenue per gram has been steadily increasing for 6 straight quarters, from $0.84 to $1.58 per gram. "As we have seen the wholesale price of cannabis for Greenway increase, the speed at which we have been able to move our crops has also increased. This trend has continued since our most recent quarter and shows no signs of regression. Everything we are growing right now and over the last few months has had a home before it has even finished being harvested," said Jamie D'Alimonte, CEO of Greenway. "This is a great sign for the industry, as it ensures consumers are getting the freshest product possible, and that Greenway is not sitting on any inventory. With both the domestic and international markets heating up rapidly over the last 18 months, we have also been able to move towards more advantageous commercial terms." CPG Update Greenway's MillRite brand continues to be a leader among pre-rolls in the 2x0.5G size category, being the #2 ranked brand and having both the #2 ranked Indica and Sativa pre-roll in the segment with their Lavender Haze and Pink Moon. Over the next few months, the MillRite has new pre-roll sizes coming to Ontario, including its first foray into the blunt category with the Lavender Haze 1 gram glass tipped blunt arriving on store shelves before the end of May. In April, Greenway re-launched The Jeffrey pre-rolls in Ontario, which are now available across the province for purchase in three convenient sizes, helping expand Greenway's presence into new size categories.
