Cebu Pacific (CEB) announced it is reducing its domestic fares permanently by as much as 32% to encourage more people to fly amid rising fuel prices.

Candice Iyog, CEB Vice President for Marketing and Product, said the new lower all-inclusive fares will take effect on 12-Jun-08. This includes the fuel and insurance surcharge, aviation security fee and 12% VAT.

The ‘all-in’ pricing format is introduced with a seat sale across CEB’s domestic network. The promotional offer will run from 12-Jun-08 to 17-Jun-08 and is valid for travel on 01-Jul-08 to 15-Oct-08. There are more than half a million seats allocated for this promotion.

‘All-in’ fares for short sectors such as Manila-Legaspi are at P699 one-way while a one-way Manila-Cebu flight would cost P999 and a Manila-Davao sector would cost only P1,499 during the seat sale.
