CebuPac beefs up payment center options

MANILA, Philippines - Budget carrier Cebu Pacific Air has rolled out more payment options for travelers, just in time for flight bookings during the Christmas holidays.

Now, more than 1,400 branches of 7-Eleven in the Philippines and 1,800 Cebuana Lhuillier branches are accepting payments for Cebu Pacific tickets.

To use this option, passengers can book flights through the Cebu Pacific website, and choose the “Pay Within 24 Hours” payment center option, upon reaching the payment page.

Guests have to take note of the 12-digit confirmation number and total amount to be paid, before paying over-the-counter at the designated branch within the allotted 24-hour period. The confirmed Cebu Pacific ticket itinerary will be emailed to the guest after the transaction.

Existing Cebu Pacific payment centers, Robinsons Department Stores and SM Department Stores now also accept payments for online bookings made within 24 hours.

The “Pay Within 24 Hours” payment center option makes it easier for guests without credit cards to conveniently and quickly book a flight.

Cebu Pacific also offers a list of “Pay before 11:59 p.m.” payment center options, which mostly involve over-the-counter transactions in banks and remittance centers.

“We remain committed to giving more travelers the chance to fly. By offering options, passengers are empowered to choose their own flights and the most convenient method of payment for them,” said Cebu Pacific vice president for marketing and distribution Candice Iyog.

Cebu Pacific’s 55-strong fleet is comprised of eight Airbus A319, 33 Airbus A320, six Airbus A330 and eight ATR-72 500 aircraft. It is one of the most modern aircraft fleets in the world. Between 2016 and 2021, Cebu Pacific will take delivery of five more brand-new Airbus A320, 30 Airbus A321neo, and 16 ATR 72-600 aircraft.
