Thursday, November 15, 2007 Budget carrier offers int’l flight connections at MCIA
JG Summit’s airline business unit, Cebu Pacific (CEB), is now offering international flight connections from its domestic stations.
Passengers can save up to 20 percent on airfare and are offered the convenience of checking-through to their final international destination.
This new service is now available from most of CEB’s domestic destinations and will be available for flights beginning last Nov. 12.
A passenger, for instance, can now fly from Bacolod to Bangkok via Manila.
Passengers can also fly from their international origin to their final Philippine destination, via Manila or Cebu.
“We are very excited about our domestic to international flight connections because this will make our international destinations even more affordable for most of our domestic stations,” said Candice Iyog, CEB vice president for marketing and product. “This also means that we are making even more of the Philippines more accessible internationally.”
Aside from the discounted airfare, as part of this service, passengers can check their baggage through to their final destination, she said.
She added that this new offering is part of CEB’s strategy to attain its target of carrying more than five million passengers this year.
“This product enhancement is a critical instrument to pushing for a more vibrant business and tourism industry in each and every city we operate in,” she said. (PR)
