Cebu Pacific is Almost Back to Normal

Cebu Pacific expects to restore over 100 percent of its pre-pandemic domestic capacity in April 2022 after it ramped up its network with the easing of pandemic travel restrictions, marking a strong start for its 26th year.

As the summer peak approaches, the airline has noted a 200-percent increase in its average daily flights for both domestic and international combined–from about 100 flights per day in 2020, to about 300 at present. 

Flights from Manila to key domestic destinations, such as Boracay and Cebu, have exceeded their 2019 flight frequencies.  

The airline currently operates 96 percent of its pre-pandemic domestic capacity. The improvement has enabled CEB to carry more passengers and boost its cargo service which means faster and more efficient movement of goods across its widest domestic network.

CEB continues to offer its guaranteed low fares to spur travel among Filipinos and foreigners alike. Its month-long #CEBSuperSeatFest is still ongoing as part of its anniversary month celebration. 

Cebu Pacific’s 74-strong fleet of some of the world’s youngest aircrafts covers 33 local destinations, on top of its 14 international destinations.
