CEB offers sweeping 50% off New Year seat sale to all destinations
For February-April 2010 travel

The country’s number one airline Cebu Pacific (CEB) celebrates the new year by offering a 50% off seat sale to any of its 32 domestic and 14 international destinations. The seat sale period starts from January 6-8, 2010, for travel this February 1-April 30, 2010.

It is also set to fly its 40 millionth passenger this January 7, 2010—a significant milestone brought about by CEB’s extensive network of destinations in the Philippines and abroad. It has 27 direct domestic and 13 direct international flights (including Osaka, Incheon and Jakarta) from Manila alone.

As for its other hubs, CEB has direct flights from Cebu to 20 domestic and 4 international destinations (Singapore, Hong Kong, Pusan and Incheon), and from Davao to Manila, Cebu, Iloilo, Zamboanga and Cagayan de Oro.

It also flies from Clark to Cebu, Hong Kong, Singapore, Macau and Bangkok.

“In 1996, CEB pioneered the great value, low fare strategy that gave a lot of opportunities for Filipinos to fly. The fact that we will soon reach our 40 million mark is a fulfilling achievement, and an affirmation of our continuous service to the traveling public,” said CEB VP for Marketing and Distribution Candice Iyog.

“We thank our passengers for their support and look forward to starting 2010 with this 50% off seat sale. Passengers are encouraged to plan in advance and book early to fully take advantage of our value fares and convenient routes and frequencies,” she added.

Passengers can call (02) 7020-888 or (032) 230-8888 for their booking needs, log on to www.cebupacificair.com or visit travel agents nearest them. Those without credit cards can still book online and pay via CEB partner banks (Bancnet, Megalink, Metrobank, Banco de Oro and Robinsons Savings Bank).

Asia’s third largest low-cost carrier, CEB has one of the youngest fleets of aircraft in Asia. It is composed of 21 Airbus A320 and 8 ATR 72-500 aircraft.

Sinulog Festival 2008 Guidelines

I got this post from Leylander. The Cebu Sinulog Foundation has already released the Official Guidelines for the upcoming Sinulog Festival 2008.

Sinulog Festival is a celebration on honor of the Child Jesus also known as the Santo Niño. The event is held every 3rd Sunday of January in the City of Cebu. Sinulog is actually a prayer dance ritual characterized by the movement of two steps forward, and one step backward, immitating the flow of the river or the Sulog.

Dinagyang Festival 2008 to retain original schedule

Iloilo City-based blogger, Bernie of Habagat Central sent me an SMS last informing me that Iloilo Dinagyang Foundation, Inc.’s Executive Director Mr. Ben Jimena has confirmed to him that the Ati ati contest of the Iloilo City’s Dinagyang Festival 2008 will still be retained. This means that the grand parade schedule will still be held at 8 in the morning immediately after the Mass, contrary to the Dinagyang schedule that was released sometime last month. This is definitely a good new for the many. especially for the photographers will no longer have problems with shooting under low light situations during late afternoon. And yes, it is still possible for me to go back to Manila, Philippines taking the last flight out.
