Filipinos based in Sydney are really fortunate. They need not to to travel via Darwin (Jetstar), Singapore (Scoot) or Malaysia (Air Asia) just to avail of a low-cost or a budget airlines. The arrival of Cebu Pacific is an alternative to another Philippine carrier, Philippine Airlines, which also operates on the same route.

Last month, I was able to book my parents-in-law to fly Cebu Pacific in going to Sydney. They will be here to be with us as they were fortunate to be given a one-year visa as tourists.

Cebu Pacific lowest all-inclusive year-round fare for Sydney is as low as P12,150.

Seat sale fares go as low as P4,999, all-in.

Cebu Pacific operates four weekly flights between Manila and Sydney, every:

Tuesday
Thursday
Saturday
and Sunday

The flight departs Manila at 12:15am and arrives in Sydney at 10:05am.
The return flight departs Sydney at 11:35am and arrives in Manila at 5:30pm.

Cebu Pacific’s inaugural flight to Sydney touched down Kingsford-Smith at 1056 local time on Tuesday and was greeted with a water cannon salute.

The 436-seat single-class Airbus A330-300 was on the ground for a little over 90 minutes before returning to Manila as 5J 7296, which departed at 1232.
