Starting March 1, Cebu airport terminal fee integrated into Cebu Pacific tickets

Cebu Pacific will integrate into its tickets the P200 domestic terminal fee of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport starting Friday, March 1.

 

In an advisory, Cebu Pacific said this covers passengers with domestic flights originating from or passing through the Cebu airport will soon pay their P200 MCIAA terminal fees upon purchase of airline tickets. Purchase may be done through internet booking, airline ticket offices and ticketing or travel agents.

 

“Last August 2012, all airlines began collecting the domestic terminal fee for flights out of Manila. With one less queue, the arrangement has successfully improved passenger flow at the airport,” said Cebu Pacific vice president for marketing and distribution Candice Iyog.

 

"From Manila and now Cebu, our passengers will no longer have to line up and pay the terminal fee after checking in for their flight,” she added.

 

Cebu Pacific said passengers who book their Cebu tickets before March 1 will still pay the MCIAA terminal fee at designated terminal fee counters at the airport.

 

Iyog said the airline is working with MCIAA to "further improve guest experience at the airport."

 

Cebu Pacific offers the most flights out of Cebu, with 20 direct domestic and six international routes including direct flights from Cebu to Manila, Coron, Clark, Caticlan (Boracay), Davao, General Santos, Cagayan de Oro, Legazpi, Puerto Princesa, Surigao, Pagadian, Iloilo and Ozamiz.

 

The airline's passengers passing through the airline’s Cebu hub grew 20 percent in 2012, as compared to 2011.  — ELR, GMA News
