I would give zero stars if I could. Avoid at all costs!
I would give zero stars if I could. The worst customer experience I have ever experienced. Lost our luggage did not advise us that our luggage never made it on the plane and left us waiting at the luggage carousel for an hour unnecessarily. We could not even speak with a company representative. Terrible from start to finish with queues for over to hours to drop out bags for them to not even be put on the plane. The worst airline I have ever travelled with.
Very unhelpful and greedy.
Very unhelpful. Would not assist to make minor change to flight immediately after booking unless $100s of dollars in fees paid. Do not use. Steer clear.
Zero stars
If I can give 0 stars, I would. They do not have a refund policy for purchases within 24 hours of purchase and they don’t care if it’s for a funeral. They have the worst customer service. Save yourself stress and NEVER fly this crappy airline.
Extremely disappointing service and misleading communication
I am sharing this experience as a warning to others.
For over a week, I contacted customer support daily, spending significant time trying to get clarity about a refund. Every agent assured me that the situation would be resolved and that a reasonable solution would be offered. Based on these assurances, I acted in good faith.
During a chat conversation, I was explicitly told that I could choose different options per booking. I was given multiple options and clearly selected a refund for one flight, while keeping the other flight unchanged. At no point was I informed that accepting or modifying one booking would automatically remove my right to a refund for the other.
Later, the refund was suddenly denied because another, unrelated flight had been modified — a change that was made with the airline’s assistance and without any warning of consequences. This is especially frustrating since the flights were booked with different airlines, yet they were later treated as inseparable.
The airline also incorrectly classified the issue as a “minor time change,” while in reality it involved a change of arrival airport, making the onward international flight physically impossible to catch. This crucial detail was ignored.
What started as seemingly good and helpful service ultimately turned into a very unfair and discouraging outcome. Customers are expected to make decisions without being informed of major consequences, and are later penalized for choices made in good faith.
This experience shows a lack of transparency, consistency, and customer-focused problem solving. I strongly advise others to be extremely cautious and to get everything in writing before agreeing to any changes.
Flight cancelled by Cebu Pacific and refund refused
Be warned when booking with Cebupacificair. My flight T6 5336 was cancelled, and a technical glitch on their site forced a 'Travel Fund' instead of a refund. Despite reporting it within 2 hours, they refuse to settle and ignore my requests. Formal complaint filed with CAB (Case 17036). Expecting a full refund to the original payment method as required by law.
Unhelpful Agents Added Stress Instead of Support
I’m extremely disappointed with Cebu Pacific’s customer service. I waited patiently both through the website and Facebook, hoping for help with a serious family medical emergency. On live chat, the agent KILA abruptly left without offering any resolution. Then, the website agent JAPH sent a generic response saying the system was unavailable just seconds after I sent a lengthy, detailed message without even reading my concern. I felt completely ignored during an already stressful and emotional time. Very unsatisfactory and disheartening service.
This airline needs to be shut down.

Multipule people didnt receive there belongings. We go outside the airport and the local driver organisers, tell us ow let me guess you lost you stuff and you travelled with cebu pacific.
Simply the worst airline
Simply, the worst airline I have ever dealt with. They cancelled our flight by accident, admitted fault yet still refused to refund us the last minute flight we had to buy upon realising they’d cancelled our travel. We were with a 6 month old baby.
There app its terrible
There app its terrible , so difficult to even book a flight .then they tryed to add on insurance which we didn't need. down right crafty company booking baggage is a nightmare and totally confusing 😕
I will never book with Cebu again
My flight was moved from Manila to Clark International Airport. The ticket to Clark International Airport is €200 less than what I paid. Besides the inconvenience and loss of money, I also have to pay for a taxi to get to my original airport. I have not received any kind of refund.
Worst ever airline
I have to give one star but seriously I’d give none. Our flight was cancelled from el Nico to Boracay, which they said was weather however according to flight apps, aircraft were taking off from Boracay at that time and weather was only stated so no compensation had to be paid. Delayed 24 hours and the following day delayed again for 3 hours, no announcements no customer service at all and no reason why. For the first delay they expected us to own expense to get veto Puerto Princess, 250km away to get a replacement flight, when we refused they miraculously found u a flight the next day. Worst airline ever experienced. Budget in cost and service. DONOT FLY CEBU PACIFIC, YOU WILL JUST BE LET DOWN.
been flying with cebu pac for a few…
been flying with cebu pac for a few years now and everything is great! affordable international and domestic flights. we were able to visit most of the southeast asian countries using cebpac.
This airline really needs to improve
This airline really needs to improve, just look at the reviews here. The Filipinos don't care, but today, in a world where everything is connected and everything moves fast, and especially where everyone shares their opinions, the competition is there and won't give them any breaks. I took a flight from Cebu to Hong Kong, and to start with, it was already over an hour late taking off. Then you get to your seats and it looks like they've skimped on the foam, the seat is too thin and uncomfortable. The worst thing, which I've never seen anywhere else, is that you simply can't recline the seats; they're fixed. And for a three-hour flight, they don't even offer food; you have to pay for everything, which is very expensive for such low quality. Then there's the trolley with goodies, which is purely commercial, and then supposedly money for children, again??? What a shame this airline is. I've never seen such poor service. I flew with Vietnam Airlines three days later on a 2.5-hour flight and was given a meal tray, wine, Coca-Cola, and coffee. Everything was included. Go hide, Cebu Pacific. You are nothing but thieves. The day the Philippines understands that you don't make money by trying to save it on the backs of people, you will have understood everything. Today, you are just profiteers. You have lost a customer, and many others will read this.
Good flight, no complains
The flight from Cebu to Puerto Princesa was good, no complains.
Scam company
Scam company. I booked twice with the same flight details, and they still can’t send me the booking confirmation. They refuse to cancel my booking even though they can’t provide any confirmation. I been waiting for 5 days now. What a waste of money. Better book with PAL
I contacted them 3 times. They have usesless support

Cebu Pacific re-timed my flight by more…
Cebu Pacific re-timed my flight by more than 4 hours. I cannot accept the re-timed flight as I have a connecting flight on another airlines. They refuse to give me a full refund. The o my options are rebooking or travel credit. All other airlines that I know of allow a full refund in such cases. Terrible policy and the staff are unhelpful. When chatting they refused to provide email address for me to complain.
Bad comunication with costumers
Bad comunication with costumers.
We had a delayed flight from Hong Kong to Manila with Cebu Pacific for the first time with a connection to Cebu, and it was the worst experience we've ever had.
The flight was delayed more than they said, and the crew even told us they would be waiting on the next flight and that we could run to catch it. It was not true ; they didn't wait and didn't even know about the delay. We lost our hotel, the driver, and all the psychological stress caused by dealing with them.
The worst airline you will ever use.
The worst airline you will ever use.
They lost our bags twice in transit within the one week. They made us sign a form saying our bag was damaged because it was slightly frayed at the top, and then when we received our bag it was completely torn and wrapped in cling film, then proceeded to tell us we signed a form saying our bag was damaged and they wouldn’t compensate us. They have the worst customer service, not one person was helpful in 4 flights.
Absolute disgrace, even for a ‘budget airline’.
Absolutely unacceptable experience with…
Absolutely unacceptable experience with Cebu Pacific.
Our trip was severely disrupted due to multiple operational failures on their end. The problems started with electronic check-in failures, despite following the process correctly. As a result, we were bumped off our original flight due to overbooking, something passengers should never be penalised for.
To make matters worse, the secondary/replacement flight we were placed on — already scheduled two hours later — was also delayed, reportedly due to mechanical issues. This compounded the disruption even further. Because of these delays and poor handling, we missed our connecting ferry to Boracay, twice! Costing us time, money, and a significant amount of stress.
No meaningful assistance, accountability, or proactive solution was offered. This wasn’t a single isolated issue — it was a chain of preventable failures, from system problems to overbooking and aircraft readiness.
When an airline markets low fares, it should not come at the expense of reliability and basic customer care. Travel plans, accommodation, and onward connections depend on airlines doing their job properly. Cebu Pacific failed on every front during this journey.
I would strongly caution anyone with time-sensitive travel or onward connections to think twice before booking.
Go Flexi (Free cancellation) is a scam
I paid for cancelation on my flight but they could not cancel my flight without reason.
I tried to cancel on my own both on app and webpage, but none of them were working. It was just letting me back to ‘my bookings’ page with my booking still there and not cancelled.
I spend 3 hours communicating with first the bot and then an agent. They needed to launch an IT investigation to cancel my flight. First i disagreed, but they did not offer another solution so i agreed. Afterwards they promised to send email but never did.
