Booking a Cheap Flight to Boracay 2012

Booking a trip to Boracay during High Season is not as expensive as we thought. It just requires a constant update on Piso Fares in Cebu Pacific website or Cebu Pacific Facebook Fanpage.

The first thing that we should consider in booking a trip is our Schedule. The more flexible our schedule is, the better our chance of grabbing that super cheap Boracay getaway.

So how much is your Airline ticket budget roundtrip to Boracay? 4,000-5,000? Ours is only 1,500php for two people. :) That is the power of Cebu Pacific's promo and piso fares.

This is actually a trip of my parents to Boracay just this February 2012. Since we are from Cagayan de Oro, there is no direct flight to Caticlan so we have to fly to Cebu first, then to Caticlan.

This is their Itinerary Receipt for Cebu-Caticlan. Imaging paying only P662.78 for two people. That is not even 350php each.

Finally, since they also want to explore Ilo-Ilo City, they opted to travel by land from Caticlan to Ilo-Ilo and flew from Ilo-Ilo back to Cagayan de Oro. Again, for only P774.78 for two people. That is very much a savings!

How to book Cheap/Promo Fares in Cebu Pacific

In the past, it has been like a stereotype that only the "rich" or should I say the well to do people are the only ones that could afford to take an airplane as a mode of transportation. I myself was already in College level the first time I was able to ride an aircraft.

But, nowadays, that is not the case anymore. Even those in the lower class can now afford to travel by air as pleased. How? I will be telling you some tips that I personally use and that might be of help to those who want to buy cheap Airline tickets.

I personally prefer Cebu Pacific over the other airline companies because of the very convenient way to book and the numerous Piso fares and promo fares that they provide.

1. First, we will need an ATM card from a bank that is a member of Bancnet, Inc., an interbank network connecting the atm networks of it's member banks. Some of these banks include Chinabank, Allied Bank, Metrobank, PS Bank, PNB and Veterans Bank. You will find the whole list of these banks here.

I use Chinabank Tellercard because aside from the good interest rate they offer, they have small maintaining balance which is only 1,000php and they also have a good customer service.

2. After having our Bancnet ATM Card, it is best to Register to be a CEB Club Member. Why? It's because during registration you will already key in your personal details like Full Name, Address, Contact number, etc and also your guest's details. Guest can be your parents, siblings or husband/wife or anyone who usually travels with you.

This way, during booking you just have to log on your account and you wouldn't have to type in your details again. This is specifically important when your booking for a promo fare since promo fares are easily sold and needs quick booking.

3. After having done all that, what we should do is to stay updated with the Cebu Pacific website, You can also, like their facebook fanpage since the admin always announce promos and piso fares in their page. Cebu Pacific usually posts promos during midnight and at noon so it will also be very good to regularly check their website during those times.

Also, Airlines' promos' travel dates would usually still be months from the day of booking. Say for example today, March 3, 2012 there is an going Piso Sale until tomorrow. The travel dates would still be from June 1 to September 30, 2012

We are almost on our way to our preferred destinations at a very low price.

Hope this helps :)
