If you are a frequent Cebu Pacific Air passenger like me, I’m sure you’re pretty familiar with the airline. But just in case you’re not very well versed with Cebu Pacific’s online registration system, here are a few helpful tips that could save you a few hundred pesos;

1. Always buy your tickets in advance. Having a few extra days to spare when you buy your ticket allows you to get the best deal possible. Usually when you buy on the day that you play, you usually pay the highest fare.
2. If time permits, schedule your flight on a weekday, preferably Tuesday or Thursday. These are the usual ‘slow’ days which means you have better chances of getting those Cebu Pacific Promo Fares that are quickly snatched by the flying public.
3. If you’re only travelling for a few days, travelling light can be lighter on your wallet. If you don’t have any check-in baggage, you can save P200 for a roundtrip ticket. Before, you get to save P400 but since last week, you only get a P100 discount per way.
4. If you’re registering online, don’t get carried away by that seat selector thing. You’re getting charged a certain amount for that.
5. In the insurance portion, check carefully. As a default, the insurance radio buttons are checked and if you don’t uncheck them, they’re included in your billing. But of course you can leave them alone if you want to be insured. Please note that it’s not required.
6. There are now a lot of ways to pay for your Cebu Pacific Air ticket. You can pay online using your credit card, use bancnet or megalink, or call their hotline at 7020888 and buy over the phone. The last option is pretty handy because sometimes, online payment can be quite strict; if you make a mistake in stating your billing address for example, your transaction won’t go through. Calling the Cebu Pacific Hotline which will direct you to their call center is hassle-free.
7. Here’s the most important thing. Cebu Pacifc Tickets especially those that are covered by promos are non-refundable and if you decide to move your booked date, the penalties are really gonna hurt you. So be firm on your flight dates unless you are just overflowing with cash.
That’s it. If you have anything to add, just give me a shout-out in the comment section.

You're right.Planning is the key to save on travel expenses.I already purchased 2 Cebu Pac roundtrip tickets for me and my daughter for November while the promo rates were still available last week.I couldn't risk losing seats for cheap flights from Manila to CDO and back.

You can subscribe to Cebu Pacific’s newsletter, FB, and twitter for the latest promos. You’ll get faster notifications in FB and twitter though.
Cebu Pacific never fails to have a promo at any given time. So knowing their promos will save you bucks.
