The process may take up to two months from the date of request.
Furthermore, the airline said it is offering flexible options for all domestic flights until January 31.
“Passengers who wish to voluntarily postpone their travel plans may conveniently cancel up to two hours before their scheduled time of departure and select their preferred option through the Manage Booking portal (https://bit.ly/CEBmanageflight) on the Cebu Pacific website.”

The airline has also started its booster program to ensure the continued safety of its employees and passengers.
