AirAsia Philippines celebrated a big milestone by officially unveiling its new headquarters in Pasay.
The new headquarters, dubbed “The Red Horizon,” will house approximately 1,500 Filipino Allstars, confirming the airline's long-term commitment to democratizing air travel by providing value-driven air transport in the Philippine market.
Senator Erwin Tulfo, one of the top performers in the recently concluded 2025 midterm elections, attended the opening, along with airport and aviation officials such as Office for Transportation Security Undersecretary Arthur Bisnar, Manila International Airport Authority General Manager Eric Ines, and Civil Aeronautics Board Executive Director Carmelo Arcilla.
Capital A CEO Tony Fernandes together with Deputy Group CEO for Airline Operations Capt. Chester Voo of the AirAsia Aviation Group, AirAsia Philippines President and CEO Suresh Bangah and the Philippine leadership team led the warm welcome among guests in the new office.
"I think the resilience of Philippine AirAsia is something to marvel at. I'm someone who never gives up. I will fight to the end. But it's tough fighting alone. And so it was amazing to see the energy. I will still remember coming to the old office and the greeting I got. The energy of this company is unbelievable. It is true, there is no AirAsia company like this. The great thing about this airline, we've gone from two planes to 255. We've been through COVID. We started with 200,000 passengers, and this year we're carrying 90 million. We're just short of carrying 1 billion people since we started this airline 23 years ago. But we're all the same. We're exactly the same. Everyone has maintained their humility, maintained their hard work, and most important about AirAsia is our passion to be the best.” ~Tony Fernandes, Capital A CEO
In his message, Senator Tulfo lauded AirAsia’s efforts in ensuring safe journeys among the Filipino people.
“From its humble beginnings, AirAsia has become a pioneer in budget air travel—not just connecting destinations, but connecting dreams, families, businesses, and cultures. It brought the skies closer to millions of Filipinos and travelers around Asia by making flying affordable, accessible, and enjoyable. As a public servant, I deeply value how AirAsia plays a role in economic development, tourism, job creation, and nation-building. Your growth is the country’s gain. And rest assured, we will continue to support an environment where enterprises like AirAsia can soar even higher.” ~Senator Erwin Tulfo
The new facility is a Filipino-inspired space that embodies modern principles such as inclusivity, collaboration, and national pride. Its main function rooms are titled The Philippines, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, representing unity and regional participation.
The headquarters also include specialized prayer rooms to promote spiritual inclusivity, a fully equipped gym to promote health and wellbeing, and People First Stop, a designated location that embodies our dedication to putting people first. It acts as a hub for support, connection, and care, as well as a safe space for mental health pep talks for individuals who need to take a break.
