Cebu Pacific Air services

This is regarding our flight from Hongkong to Cebu June 15, 2017 9:40am which was cancelled due to technical reasons. The circumstances demand our patience and we were diligent in waiting. However, the passengers were not accommodated well to the extent that the flight was delayed for about 15 hours and this is unacceptable. The flight is transfered to Hongkong to Manila but then upon arriving in Manila the transfer desk had no idea that we are coming, we are all exhausted by your poor services and lack of information for us passengers in a foreigner country. Is this the kind of system you have then your not communicating asap with the incharge in Hongkong, it takes passengers to get mad for an hour for you to respond asap. We waited 15 hours and more just to get home. We have a fun vacation in Hongkong and all of a sudden that happy moments just turn in frustration because of your services. You offer a promo flight that we have paid the right amount then in return its just a disaster for us, for my whole family and special for all of us passenger.

I hope you take action to this matter asap, if this is the first time that happen in your company you should take the consideration to have another option or BCP for us passengers. This inconvince is just to much for us. Hope for your asap reply, you can just email me @ [protected]@gmail.com, to what action to be taken regarding my concern.

God Bless

Sincerely

Astrid Gail Rama

Cebu Pacific Air denied to board aircraft

On June 12, 2017 I was to board the flight 5J 395 from Manila to Cagayan de Oro. My flight’s boarding time was 7:45pm and departure time is 8:15pm at NAIA Terminal 3, Gate 134B. I checked in online and was already at the airport around 7:10pm. I also lined up to have my ticket printed and the ground crew said that it was not necessary since I already have a copy of my boarding pass in my cellphone gallery. I even asked her regarding the status of my flight and she said it will depart on time as there is no advice that it will be delayed. I was glad upon hearing this since I was enthusiastic going home without any delays. I was already at the pre departure gate and also went to the comfort room since it was still early. Upon arriving at the boarding gate the ground crew informed me that I cannot board the aircraft anymore and it was still 7:50pm. I could not understand how in a span of 5 minutes they already closed the plane. My boarding pass clearly indicated that boarding time is 7:45pm and I was at the boarding gate at exactly 7:50pm. I tried to beg for the crew to let me board the plane since I have no money left to purchase for a new ticket. I explained to her that I am still on time and I have the right to board that plane going to my beloved CDO. She refused and frankly said to me to just book another ticket to another flight. I was traveling alone and being the pacifist that I am I didn't make a scene. I was speaking to her in a calm voice and I pleaded for help regarding my situation but the crew never even offered to rebook and on top of it all, would not refund my ticket. I felt hopeless with my unpleasant experience with the ground crew so I went to the Cebu Pacific Admin Office to seek for help regarding my situation. In the Admin Office they said they will call the crew in the boarding gate. After calling, the crew from the Admin Office told me they cannot do anything about my situation. They wouldn’t even offer to rebook my flight which was their fault in the first place and outspokenly told me that Cebu Pacific is a budget airline and they would not wait for any passenger. She told me I was at fault that I didn’t answer the call, why would I even answer the call when I am already in the boarding gate. I was already checked in but they wouldn’t allow me to board the aircraft. I have been a loyal customer though I am experiencing delays on your flights; by far this is the worst experience that I had received from Cebu Pacific Air. I felt disrespected and humiliated as a customer. So easy for you to say to book another flight when you know all too well that airfare prices are too high when you are travelling on the next day. I was crying out for help yet you have done nothing, you have only given me emotional stress. I have had my share of incidents as an air traveller, but had never experienced anything as unpleasant and as distasteful as this. I never even heard a single apology for the hassle you’ve caused me.
In the Passenger Bill of Rights Chapter 1, Section 2.9 clearly states that "Denied Check-in" takes place when a passenger, who has presented himself/herself for check-in at the appointed area and at the appointed time, is denied or not processed for boarding a particular flight. "Denied Boarding" takes place when a passenger, who holds a confirmed reserved seat, and who has presented himself/herself for carriage at the proper time and place and fully complied with the carrier's check in and reconfirmation procedures, and who is acceptable for carriage under carrier's tariff, was not allowed to board the aircraft. Understanding this, I have every right to board the aircraft since I was at the boarding gate at the right time. With this, it constitutes a contract of carriage between your airline and me as a passenger, whereby the air carrier, for consideration, obligates itself to transport a passenger by air safely, efficiently and conveniently along a stipulated route at a given date and time. Herewith, I demand for an apology and a full refund on my June 12, 2017 flight from Manila bound to Cagayan de Oro City.

Cebu Pacific Air unsatisfactory service

To whom this may concern,

We purchased a ticket at Cebu Pacific last 18 Jan, 2017 Ref: EH4BNH for 4 passengers (My Family). We received an advisory from the customer service notifying us that our trip is cancelled due suspension of flights. We were given an option to either refund, rebook or transfer arrangement and we opted to just transfer us to another airline. We contacted the customer service many times but the answer we get is to wait for the call from the agent. We are scheduled to fly in 2 weeks and no update up to now. We even send one of our family member to the main office to check this issue but still the answer is to wait for the call.

Please let us know what is our status, whether we are waiting for something to happen soon or we will just hang on until the day of our flight. We already filed our leave applications to our company.

Hope you could get us an answer as soon as possible.

Thank you and hoping for your prompt attention to this matter.

Regards,

Mrs. Pastrana

Cebu Pacific Air my flight booking

Unacceptable situation

My name is [removed] and my booking reservation was cedrja.
This email to complain what happened to me.
I have booked the flight no. Dg6043 of the 19th may from manila to coron in march and I paid everything in advance by card. First, I wanted to book via other portals but then I decided to book directly through your website.
The worst mistake ever. Until the firsts of may, everything was regular and the reservation was still confirmed, then I decided to add a luggage on my flight and the un-incredible happened.
I tried a few times to pay the balance due of 500 pesos but the transactions were always denied even though my cards were all available. I decided to pay everything in the airport because nobody answered my emails and calling from abroad was expensive.
When I arrived in the philippines, the first thing I did was to call the cebu pacific air customer service.
The service was very poor. I talked first with mr. Paul who said that my reservation was not valid!
I've explained him that the money was charged from my credit card and I had the flight confirmation so he could not tell me that my reservation was not valid. He explained again that my reservation was not confirmed and said that the money was charged to check if the card was available but it will be accredited again.
What kind of joke is that? I am a traveller and I work in this field so I know how things goes. What an excuse.
However, he said he'd call me within 48 hours I said I hadn't much time because it was 3 days before the flight and nothing. No interest, no rushes. Nothing.
I've called again in the afternoon, i've talked with another person and back to zero again, explaining what happened. The call was interrupted because i've finished my load so I had to load my cellphone again (Calling your service is so expensive, I think i've spent about 1000+ pesos only for you, for your poor service).
Anyhow, i've called for the third time and spoke with a girl, she explained us what happened, that you had some machines problems and our reservation has been cancelled and you'd give us our money back.
Just an advice, in this cases never say that you give the money back because I don't need my money back, if I book a flight is because I need it. Don't you think so?
This girl after almost an entire afternoon on the phone, letting us wait, said that she'd let us know within 48 hours. Do you understand that if I have a flight within 3 days I can't wait 48h?
The day after, we had to change our programmes (For your information, we were in the philippines for vacation and for bussiness and because of what happened we've wasted time changing our schedules) and we travelled from batangas to manila.
We went to the cebu pacific office near the airport and talked with ms. Diana who kindly assists us.
I've explained once again what happened (I believe that you should improve your service, I was so tired of explaining the issue. It's unacceptable) and she said that the reservation was no more available and that we would be refunded.
I've explained her that i've booked that flight for a reason, i've business in coron and because of you I had to change some schedules.
I've waited more than 4 hours in that office, waiting ms. Diana to fix the problem.
It's incredible how in situations like this no managers were available and nobody seems to care!
As I said to ms. Diana, if you had a machine problem and some reservations were accidentally cancelled is none of your clients business. I don't care if you had a problem and if you sell the flight i've booked 1 month before. It's also funny that who had problems are we, the first who booked that flight and not those who booked after us. Just because perhaps they paid more than us? You are so incompetent.
I could have sue you for this. Selling a reservation and receiving other money when some people already paid and didn't receive any communication of the problem and the cancellation.
Do you have any idea of what would happened if we didn't call you for the luggage clarification? We had no idea that our reservation was cancelled.
Anyhow, I don't want to dwell on this and waste other time.
Ms. Diana at the end proposed us other time schedule which at first I didn't accept. Why should I accept to change my flight for your problems? At the end, because she could not really fix it (I want you to know that i'm very pissed off about) I had to accept. I was so damn tired of waiting in your office. The 26th I had an appointment before flying back but thanks to you, I had to reschedule that appointment.
I really hope to receive a response; I did not really appreciate your service.
I fly a lot and I always book online but things like this never happened.

Regards

Cebu Pacific Air compensation!

I received your e-mail last June 2, 2017.. I went to Robinsons Cebu ticketing office about this.Asked for another earlier flight, was told that there's no other schedule for July 2, 2017 so I decided not to go anymore. I can not go to Singapore just for 3 days. Been calling your customer service about my request that I want to be compensated for a free tickets good for two, domestic flight since i've wasted 7, 000 pesos for my hotel booking in singapore. They will no longer refund it because it has been booked last december! Even if you will provide a certificate or whatever proof, they will no longer refund it! I deserve a compensation for the changes you made. I have been planning this vacation since last year! I've wasted my time and money! I'm just asking for a compensation! Ive been calling your customer service everyday and keep on hearing the same alibi to wait 24-48hrs for my request! It's already 1 week! I was even told that you sent the e-mail last feb., that's a big lie! I will not stop complaining if you will not compensate me/us! Please read! http://www.tourism.gov.ph
Based on the joint Department of Transportation and Communications-Department of Trade and Industry Administrative Order 1, or the Air Passenger Bill of Rights, an air passenger has three major rights: (1) Right to be provided with accurate information before purchase, (2) Right to receive the full value of the service purchased, and (3) Right to compensation.

I have been working hard for this vacation! If you can not compensate me, refund everything!

all i want is a free tickets for 2 (DOMESTIC FLIGHT)

Cebu Pacific Air customer service

On May 31, 2017 my flight Manila to Davao 5J963. I checked in at around 6am and the attendant told me that it was already full and they can't no longer accommodate me. When I asked why since there was no announcement that check in time was already close she just said that my ticket is on promotion so I just cried for not getting help. I paid 2, 378.56 for that ticket and my seat was given to someone else that easy. They didn't even give me a refund instead they booked me another ticket and I paid another 2000+ because I only have 3000 pocket-money I chose the cheapest flight which was around 4pm flight. From 6am to 4pm I just stayed at the airport. This is unfair on my part even if you will say that my ticket is on promotion you have no right to give my seat to someone else. I need you to compensate on all the inconvenience and emotional stress you have caused me on that day. I need to hear from you management asap..Please contact me [protected].

Cebu Pacific Air airport staff who did not do her job properly

4th of June on a sunday morning at 1051 hours to be exact, i was supposed to just grab my printed boarding pass and have my check in bags deposited over their service desk at the airport prior to immigration clearing when this personnel left in the service desk did not accommodate me to get to the boarding area and be on the flight as i was "about 10 minutes late" .

Unable to bring the right passport, i accidentally took my husband's passport and realized 2 hours before the closure of their check-in of baggage whilst on the train. Alighted in one of the city train stations, decided to go back home to take my right passport. Took me an hour and 15 minutes to get back to the airport.

However, this lady (fortunate for her i have not grabbed her name), apart from not accommodating me to be on that flight, she did not "tag" the right notes that she must have placed in their system in order for cebupacific call center agents to know what they are supposed to do, whether it should be tagged as "late check in" or "no show" .
I rung their call center hotline for more than 6 times and they have escalated the case for more than 3 times, more than 48 hours of waiting for the feedback whilst i was told to wait 24-48 hours. Now, i have spoken to so many agents and i can even memorize their lines and verification questions. Eventually, just a while ago i have spoken to one of their supervisors and to conclude what he said is : he cannot do anything apart from escalating the case and wait for another 24 hours. I needed to fly tomorrow (7/June /17) as my dad is not well and i have a personal event to attend which if missed out, would defy the reason why i have to book my flight back and forth Sydney-Philippines for merely 5 days from now.

If that personnel in the airport have done her job properly and not being so slack with her duties, i could have rebooked my flight and not pay another $500 + to get a new one way ticket. I have wasted my time, and energy and above all, i have just ruined the plans i had ahead.

No one can condemn me for being 6 mins late as first and foremost:
1) i checked in online. (30 mins is the mere time needed to reach the point of "no show" and there was 39 mins more when i reached the desk)

2)my reason was substantial. I did not sleep in and or any other lame excuse. Yes i should have checked my documents bfore i go, but, i wasnt able to for personal reasons few days before my flight.

3) that personnel should have at least accommodated me and entertained my thought of seeking for help from her manager. But she chose to just walk away after i was on the phone with the call center agent who cannot do anything else but say "please call back after so and so time"

Thus, i demand a full refund of my fare for the inconvenience that it caused me. No considerations at all. It is totally inhumane to treat customers as such.

Reference number: LDMWKD
P.S.
I NEEDED TO KNOW THE NAME OF THAT RUDE STAFF AND REPORT HER TO THE MANAGER FOR BEING SO INEFFICIENT AND SLACK WITH HER DUTIES. She clearly has breached her duty.

Cebu Pacific Air online booking - payment was taken from bank but ticket was closed

Booking online was easy to do but processing payments made us go crazy.
Every time we open the website every date we try is available but then whenever we pay, the ticket is already close but there is deduction in our bank accounts. How can we get our money back? There is no ticket issued but my friend's bank account which we use was deducted with such amount.

Cebu Pacific Air 3 days lost baggage

Hi! This is Princeton Charles Tiu passenger of Cebu Pacific with flight 5J-759 Manila-Jakarta last May 21, 2017, and when we reach Jakarta airport, my baggage is not around. We seek immediate assistance to my relative to pay visit to the Manila Airport at 2am in the morning to check our baggage. It turns out that my baggage was still there, and your ground crew/staff wasn't able to put a bag tag that's why it wasn't included in the flight. We keep on exchanging emails regarding to my baggage that wasn't included to the flight, And they said that the baggage will be included for the flight tomorrow.And we wait for tomorrow's flight and still when we check at the airport my baggage still not included for the said flight.We again contact/email them just to asked what happen again they just told us they forget to include our baggage for that flight.And finally it arrive the day after.We are seeking and demanding for compensation because we buy clothes for 2 days and we spent money for the transportation, food, time, hotels that we booked and for the meetings that we cancelled, events that we didn't attend.And also the headaches and sleepless night, All the hussle things that they caused us.After then no more replies to my emails or calls.by the way I kept all of our conversations just to have evidence.

Hoping for your immediate response for this matter.
Thank you!

Cebu Pacific Air full refund of our fare

National convention of philippine association of municipal assessor on june 27-30, 2017 in davao city was postponed due to the declaration of martial law in mindanao. Said convention is the only reason why we booked a flight. Since it was postponed there is no reason for us to rebook nor travel to elsewhere.

This is also the reason why we are requesting your airline for a full refund of our fare. We booked in good faith and we are not expecting any disturbance or any problems but since unexpected declaration of martial law of the president happened, I hope your airlines will be considerate enough to process our request of full refund. Nobody to be blame just be considerate attached herewith is the letter of postponement of the said convention. I'm hoping for a favorable action of your airline. Thank you

Cebu Pacific Air rebooking

Rebooking flight - 2 days after making the error

I am not flying for 4 months

I am trying to rectify a mistake when booking my flight. I have called customer care and i got nowhere. Please help!

It is clear that i made a human error when booking and now I am being punished for it. I am told i can rebook however it is simply cancelling my flight and rebooking another costing me double the amount. How is this the only way?

I need to change a flight to a day earlier. The only reason i made the error is because of the pm vs am and night flight. It was completely innocent.

This is cruel to do to people and i cant belive your company operates like ths.

Can you please consider my case, so I can change my flight without being taking advantage of. I do not mind paying a small fee but double the amount of my original flight is just disgusting service.

Cebu Pacific Air rebooking ticket

April 5 2017 when i called the Cebu pacific call center to rebook my flight... As i wanted to get the flight on April 7, in our convo i confirmed the said flight without payment coz i am waiting for a friend to used her credit card, and this girl in call center told me i can pay the said amount through credit card or i can send through bank as well. I am here in Dubai, so of course there's a difference of timing between philippines and dubai, ..i didn't send or pay the said payment for my rebooking. Then what i did, is to book new flight with same airlines which is Cebu pacific.. But with the travel agency here in UAE, coz i can pay cash, i thought that flight i was rebooked is canceled or invalid at all coz i didn't pay. May 2, 2017 in Mactan international airport my flight going back to Dxb, i used my old itinerary coz i didn't used the return flight and its valid..then i will take the boarding pass and the counter girl told me i have to pay sun amount..i got shocked either why should i? That ticket is fully paid...then they told me i rebook the fight April 3 to April 7 2017, i answered them yes! But i didn't pay that one and i didn't used that booking no. When i travel going to philippines, i bought new ticket coz i didn't get the credit card to pay for it. They make pending payment for my booking and they doesn't want me to go..You guys are so unfair.. I am an ofw, working abroad and trying to earn money for my family.. How u guys, do pending payments a confirmed a flight without informing your customer or even to attempt to call us and informed as that we have this issue? Or even inform as that we can pay the said amount issue upon arrival? NO ONE HAS A CONCERN ! This is how u guys treat your customer? This is your way of customer service?...i lost my 1650 dhs amount of ticket becoz of this issue...SO UNFAIR!

Cebu Pacific Air check-in counter staff at caticlan airport

I would like to make a complaint which happened today at 11:30 am at Caticlan airport at the check in counter,

staff namely :

It was my first time in a long time to ride cebu pacific so I was told that I needed to pay some money to check in my 2 bags worth 10 kilos each, I paid for 3 tickets. We were 3 passengers together.

I didn't know that any baggage check in has to be paid for separately, and no standard allotment for that.

obviously traveling to another place, I have things, my bag is not heavier than 10 kilos. I understand now that this is your policy but what was difficult was that I told the staff I really wanted to try to transfer some things into my hand carry, so I don't need to pay price for checking in 2 bags. However, one of the staff was insistent Ms. April Joy that it won't work out. I said I just wanted to do that... I don't think its her money to decide, or her things to decide for me...

I was almost in tears because she was dictating to me harshly what I should do. I finally told her
MS THERE IS NO HARM IN TRYING I WOULD RATHER PAY 784 THAN 1500. She still didn't stop talking, and forcing me.

I suffered mental stress and anxiety and almost lost consciousness.
She also insisted that I pay in cash not use my card. Why so, is there corruption at the airport staff check in counter...?
that is why I made sure to ask for a receipt.

After I moved some things, the heavy stuff inside my bag were our wet clothes from the beach and i said ill just carry this, she said no maam its okay you can put it in the bag... but I didn't, because I'd like to follow rules its good that the airplane didn't smell bad. I just think a little consideration will be nice for everyone.

Your staff are rude and not understanding... I had to hand carry my wet garments which was only 2 kilos in excess in that one bag. And then she also said don't put it in the suitcase which you are taking to the flight with you... because that has to only be exactly 7 kilos? What a real sad, horrible human being.

so I had to carry the plastic bag, but whether we carried it in the plastic bag or in the suitcase, how does it matter? its both in hand carry. She is so terrible as a perSON

Cebu Pacific Air I am complaining about my delayed flight

Good day. My name is Ma. Melanie L. Makabenta. I am one of your passenger last May 6, 2017. My booking reference is G71IFI, flight number 5J14, route was Manila to Dubai.
I am going to complain of the delayed flight that caused me to pay 80USD for my luggage to be transfered to my connecting flight instead of me checking it in (Dubai to Dushanbe, Tajikistan).Our departure from Manila was scheduled 4:45 p.m. and supposed to arrive to Dubai at 9:40PM Dubai time.Our plane arrived in Dubai 10:20 PM Dubai time at Terminal 1, my next flight is scheduled 11:55 at Terminal 2, I was running out of time in getting my boarding pass for the next plane that was why I just payed to the airlines for them to transfer my luggage and get on my next flight as soon as possible.
With regards to this situation, I just want to know how can I reimburse the amount I payed for my luggage since it was your delayed schedule that caused all this.

Cebu Pacific Air flight confirmation not received

Dear Sir/Madam,

On the 25th of April 2017, me and my boyfriend booked a flight from Manila to Bocaray (Caticlan), departing on the 15th of June 2017 at 14:15h, through the Cebu Pacifics website.

When we submitted the payment details the web page turned all white and freezed. We were convinced the operation was not finalised and decided to book later.

On the day after, my boyfriend got an e-mail from Cebu Pacifics reminding that the booking had not been confirmed and redirecting us to the confirmation page. Although, the link to confirm the booking led us to a regular booking page, showing the timetable of all the flights and their respective prices.
We then confirmed that the tickets price was debited from his credit card, even though we didn't receive any tickets or receipt.

We would like to receive our purchased tickets info or our booking confirmation reference number as soon as possible.

Your prompt response will be very much appreciated.

Best regards,

Rita Sansana and Nuno Reis

Cebu Pacific Air inefficient handling of request for a name change for flight

Date of incident - since april 10, 2017
Full description of incident:
This refers to my request for a name change for flight with confirmation/booking reference dbicsj, which is being handled by cebupacific inefficiently.

The following are chronology of events/communications with cebu pacific.
1) april 10 - called up customer service to inquire about the process for changing the names of passenger. custom service agent informed of the following requirements that need to be submitted: scanned copy of letter of authorization for name change; 1 valid id of original and new passenger and email the same to [protected]@cebupacificair.com

2) april 10 - shane of service desk - call center (under email address [protected]@@cebupacificair.com acknowledged my email and replied that a proforma letter of authorization need to be submitted.

How come from the very start the service desk didnt inform me that what is required is for me to fill up their proforma letter of authorization.

3) april 17 - i emailed the pro-forma letter of authorization together (in view of the holy week, i was just able to submit the proforma this day)

4) april 18 - retch of service desk (different call agent) - informed me through email that i need to submit a revised pro-forma letter of authorization with contact details of the new passenger.

5) april 24 - i replied and provided the contact details of the new passenger.
Below is my email to them -

Why is your process like this. at first, you provided a list of
Requirements for name change (authorization letter, ids),
Which i submitted.

Then after a few days you will get back at me saying that you
Have your own pro forma authorization letter. then i
Complied.

Now that i submitted your proforma letter you will tell me to
Submit another authorizarion letter just to have the contact
Details of ms. adorio. isnt that so inefficient of
Cebupac's process.
you require details piece by piece.

I just send now to you her contact details. hope our request
Will now be processed."

6) may 5 - i followed up my request thru email

7) may 5 - aj (another different call agent) replied saying that a revised letter of authorization, the contact details of the new passenger should be indicated in the revised letter of authorization.

8) may 5 - i emailed back and told them that i have already sent the contact details.

9) may 5 - kb (another different call agent) - emailed back and told me that the contact details need to be inputted in the letter of authorization.
Now i am really pissed off -----
- what is the logic here? i emailed already the contact details, they have the letter of authorization, why not they themselves put the contact details in the letter...they only need the contact details...why do i have to revise the letter of authorization?

10) may 8 - just to have my request processes, i emailed the revised letter of authorization bearing the contact details of the new passenger, which i just wrote on the previously submitted letter of authority.

Pissed off...as i was out of town and have no access to the previously submitted letter of authority.

11) may 8 - mitch (another different call agent) replied acknowledging receipt of the revised letter of authorization. this time she is asking for my valid id...too pissed off already. come on...this is a new requirement! which was not asked from the very start!

So inefficient cebu pacific!

Pls see the email thread below for more information:

Cebu Pacific charges a lot of fees. Even name change request for flight has a charge of P1650.00. Considering that flight has not consummated yet, I am just requesting for a name change, and I am charged for such amount as if you book another flight. Airline is too greedy and not so customer friendly.

I believe the charge is too costly for such a request. If charge would pertain to the administrative cost of processing of the name change, said charge is so unreasonable. The airline even providing quality service, flights are always delayed. Even request like this is not timely attended to. Its process for requests are so inefficient.
