“We are taking a conservative and agile approach to rebuilding our international network. While demand remains soft, there is latent demand for travel, particularly from stranded individuals and those who are eager to come home to visit their families. We have taken extra precautions to ensure travelers that preventive measures are in place so we can start rebuilding the trust and confidence in air travel.”

Cebu Pacific has also introduced enhanced flexibility for guests with unlimited rebooking and extension of their ‘Travel Fund’ validity for up to two years.
