Cebu Pacific launches Cebu-Macau flights with P999 seat sale

Cebu Pacific announced on Friday a new route linking Cebu to Macau, starting December 7.

To launch the beginning of the new route, the airline is offering an introductory, all-in seat sale of P999 until Sept. 27, 2018, or until seats last. Travel period is from Dec. 07, 2018 to March 30, 2019.

Starting Dec. 07, 2018, CEB will begin operating direct flights from Cebu to Macau, and vice-versa, four-times-a-week every Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. 

The flights will leave Cebu at 6:50 p.m. and arrive in Macau at 10:00 p.m. The return flight leaves Macau at 10:45 p.m. and arrives in Cebu at 01:45 a.m. the next day.

“We believe that this new connection is not only an answer to our passengers’ demands, but will also stimulate both the trade and tourism aspects in both destinations as it makes available both passenger and cargo services,” said JR Mantaring, Cebu Pacific vice president for Corporate Affairs.

Macau, with its prime location, allows it to serve as a gateway to Pearl River Delta, making it a perfect access point for business and leisure travelers alike, the airline said. “This connection gives passengers from the Visayas and Mindanao a more viable option to fly to and from the area.” 

Cebu Pacific currently owns the majority of connections between the Philippines and Macau, holding more than 50 percent of the capacity share as it now flies direct from three hubs—Cebu, Clark, and Manila. —VDS, GMA News
