Book at Cebu Pacific promo low fares (How to book a flight? A guide to first time bookers)

Cebu Pacific is one of the airlines in the Philippines that offer super low fares especially to local destinations. Before, booking a flight is a luxury living because it is so expensive, but Cebu Pacific and some airlines has been very generous to offer low flight flares especially when they are on sale nowadays. This blog will serve as a guide for first time bookers of Cebu Pacific who wants to take the opportunity to fly paying a cheap price.

During on sale, travellers will usually stay in front of their monitors for hours to catch the lowest and best flight schedule possible. Take note, booking a flight on sale needs a lot of patience in looking for low fares, there will be a lot of people who will be your competitor in looking for the cheap price. Aside from that, the website will also be slow due to a huge traffic of people visiting their page, sometimes, the site crashes, if this happens to you, just keep on refreshing the page.

Ways of Cebu Pacific Sale:

1. Cebu Pacific announces their sale on their Facebook page or you can subscribe on their mail so that sale notifications will be sent to your email. Cebu Pacific usually don't announce the date of sale in advance, they announce it an hour before the sale sometimes.

2. Make sure to check the poster for the travel period. The only low fare that they will offer is during the dates that they will set.

3. The prices that will be shown on your search will be the all-in promo. Meaning, base fare (your seat), taxes, fuel charge, etc. are already included, there should be no additional payments (Unless if you will purchase add ons).

2. Cebu Pacific has a limit on their sale per date and per flight, you need to look for a date and time that has a low fare. On sale, your preferred date will not be followed (You are lucky if your preferred date has a promo). Some bookers are complaining because their preferred date has a high fare, if you will look for cheap fares, you need to follow the date that has low fares.

3. The promo fares is first come first served basis. You need to book as fast as you can to get the best schedule.

4. After searching for flight, Cebu Pacific will trick you on their ad-ons offer. Don't be shocked if the total price went up after clicking the continue button, you just need to uncheck or remove some of the add-ons for the price to be lowered again. Keep on reading to know how.

In booking, just follow the following steps for successful booking of cheap flights:

Search for your desired destination, date and how many persons you need to book. Take note, If you will book for someone, make sure that you know their full name and their birthday. If you need to confirm the details to them after booking, you might loose the system due to idle. Booking a lot of passengers will show few slots of cheap fares, better to book 2 to 5 persons only.

In this example, I'm trying to book for Manila - Bacolod - Manila. Select the best schedule and price for your desired trip.

Manila to Bacolod (P385.92) per person.

Bacolod to Manila (P200.92) per person.

In this low fare promo, I will fly from Manila - Bacolod - Manila for a total of P586.84 only, cheap right?

After selecting the best schedule for your desired trip, scroll down and just click next or continue.

Upon clicking the continue button, you will notice that the fare price on the right side will went up. Don't be shocked, you can return the price to cheap fare again. Enter the information of the passenger first (Full name, Email, Birthday, etc) then scroll down to see the add-ons that you need to uncheck and remove to decrease the total price.

                                                            

The price became 1,706.84 roundtrip because of automatic ad-ons.

Enter your details or log in. Cebu Pacific will contact you through this details for flight cancellation, delays, etc. The itinerary receipt (Electronic Ticket) that you will present to the airport will be sent to your email.

Enter the passenger's name and birthday (Same as your I.D. that you will present to the airport).

After entering the passenger's information, scroll down and the next thing that you need to do is to adjust that expensive price by removing the automatic add on services of Cebu Pacific. Uncheck the add ons, follow this example:

Click the "NO THANKS" to remove the baggage allowance that costs P358.40 each trip for extra 20kg. 

You don't need an extra baggage unless you are bringing more that 7 kilos of luggage with you. Cebu Pacific offers free 7kg. of hand carry baggage for free.

Next is to Click "CHANGE MEAL" and it will show the food that they offer.

Click "1" and change it to "0", then click continue.

After doing this, the price will return to its original cost of the all in fare. Click the "Next/Continue" button after this page to proceed.

The price is P586.84 again!

The next page will be the seat selector, you don't need to reserve a seat because it will be given to you upon your check in. Reserving seat will be just a waste of money. You can actually choose a seat on their kiosk machine on the airport upon checking in for free. Just click the square beside your name (the seat number) and click "Remove seat" on both trip.

Click "seat number' then click "Remove Seat".

After removing the seat reservation, click next and you will be directed to the payment page. In this page the site will automatically check the insurance service. It's up to you if you want to be insured but if you want to cancel it to save P350, same thing, uncheck it as well. (I don't suggest getting an insurance for local travel)

Click "Manage per guest" to see the check add ons.

Uncheck "Yes, I will travel safe with Travelsure" to remove insurance.

After all of these, review your details and travel information, check the confirmation that you have reviewed your booking and click continue/next again. 

It will direct you to the payment options. If you have credit card, you can pay online by clicking the "Credit Card/Debit Card Box" and enter your card details. If you want to pay over the counter, Click the "Payment Centers Box" wherein you can pay at 7/11, SM payment centers,etc. After that, click confirm to process your payment.

For Payment Centers / over - the - counter payments, make sure to screen shot or take down the "confirmation number" and the "exact amount" of your booking that the site will be given after you click the confirmation button. The system of the payment centers will reject the payment if you will not declare the exact amount, take note of it even the centavos.You need to pay within 24 hours after you book or else, your reservation will be lost. I usually pay at 7-eleven or SM malls.

After your payment, check your email for the itinerary receipt (electronic ticket). Cebu Pacific will be sending it to you in PDF form, you can print it or save it on your mobile phone. It will serve as your ticket to the airport.
