Candice Iyog, CEB marketing director said, “since this is for immediate payment upon booking, the best way to grab the promo is via CEB’s website, www.cebupacificair.com. It’s fast and easy to book flights and pay fares online.” She added that the P999 fare is for one-way travel only, is non-refundable and is exclusive of regular surcharges and government tax.

Iyog said that the sale is meant to jumpstart the summer season. “We are very excited for the many Filipinos who will be able to avail of these fares, and maybe fly to our international destinations for the first time. This is part of CEB’s efforts to stimulate the market and grow the tourism industry with the lowest fares possible. It has always been CEB’s mission to bring flying closer to more Filipinos.”

The P999 sale is available for limited seats on the following international services: daily flights between Manila and Singapore; six-times weekly flights between Cebu and Singapore; four-times weekly flights between Manila and Bangkok; thrice-weekly flights between Manila and Jakarta; and four-times weekly flights between Manila and Kuala Lumpur.

“We encourage everyone to act quickly because we expect seats to sell-out fast at these very low fares,” Iyog emphasized.

The airline awaits the delivery of one more Airbus aircraft in March 2007 to complete its $670 million re-fleeting program.
