Budget airline Cebu Pacific on Wednesday slashed its fares by half for all its international and domestic destinations.
In a statement, the Gokongwei-led airline said the 50 percent off fares will be sold from October 14 to 16 or until seats last.
The travel period is from December 1 to 31.
“We decided to offer this big 50 percent off seat sale because of the demand for low fares this December. Even if this is Christmas peak travel period, we still aim to give everyone the chance to fly,†Candice Iyog, Cebu Pacific's vice president for marketing and distribution said.
The airline offers 50 percent off fare to its more than 70 routes, servicing 16 international and 33 domestic destinations.
These destinations include Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Taipei, Macau, Kota Kinabalu, Singapore, Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh, Brunei, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul (Incheon), Jakarta, Pusan, Osaka, Boracay (Caticlan), Cebu, Coron (Busuanga), Iloilo, Bacolod, Legazpi, Naga, Laoag, Tagbilaran (Bohol), Butuan, Cauayan, Siargao, Surigao, Tuguegarao and Zamboanga.
