Cebu Pacific to Launch Manila - Guam Flights

Cebu Pacific has unveiled plans to launch four times weekly flights between Manila and Guam on 15 March 2016.

Cebu Pacific's Guam route will operate every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, with Airbus A320 aircraft.

The Manila-Guam service will depart at 03:45 and arrive in Guam at 10:15.

The Guam-Manila flight will depart Guam at 12:30 and arrive in Manila at 14:55.

From Manila, passengers can utilize Cebu Pacific's extensive network in the Philippines. Domestic destinations with good connections include Laoag, Iloilo and Cebu.

The Guam Rugby Sevens Women's Team took part in the Asia Rugby Sevens Olympic Games Qualifier in Hong Kong in November. The Guam team played extremely well to beat Sri Lanka in their final game of the tournament. More pictures at: https://www.asiatraveltips.com/PicturesofAsiaRugbySevens2015P10.shtml.

"Having Guam in our network sets us off on another expansion path across the Pacific. With the launch of Guam, we offer fares that are up to 83% lower than other airlines. Fares this low can only mean more tourists to both countries, more Filipinos visiting home, and more opportunities for everyone," said Cebu Pacific President and CEO, Lance Gokongwei.

The sizeable Filipino community in Guam currently comprises about 26% of the island's population, and recent data shows that the Manila Guam route is relatively underserved, compared to other destinations with smaller Filipino populations.

There are approximately 5,900 weekly seats currently available between Manila and Guam. Cebu Pacific's entry into the market adds 1,440 weekly seats to this pool, boosting air traffic between the two countries further.

To celebrate the new route, Cebu Pacific is offering P2,500 all-in seats until 29 November 2015 for travel from 15 March to 30 November 2016. The promotion is subject to terms and conditions.

After the seat sale, Cebu Pacific fares to Guam start from P7,197.

Cebu Pacific's network now spans 64 destinations on 98 routes, including flights to Sydney, Doha, Beijing, Tokyo, Bali and Dubai. The airline's 55-strong fleet comprises of 8 Airbus A319, 33 Airbus A320, 6 Airbus A330, and 8 ATR 72-500 aircraft.  Between 2016 and 2021, Cebu Pacific will take delivery of 5 more brand-new Airbus A320, 30 Airbus A321neo, and 16 ATR 72-600 aircraft.
