Cebu Pacific - Domestic to International Connection
Planning on travelling Cebu Pacific from Cebu to Singapore with a connection in Manila
5J 560 --- Cebu 0610 /Manila 0720
Connecting to
5J 799 --- Manila 1010 /Singapore 1335
The above itinerary is one PRN booked on the Cebu Pacific website.
I understand that Cebu Pacific is a point to point carrier but does that mean in Manila I will have to physically collect my bags and then stand in line to and check in again for the flight to Singapore.
The Cebu Pacific web-site says the following:
Flight Connections
If you are booking 2 single-sectoral flights (example: CEB-MNL then MNL-HKG), please allow the following minimum times between the first arrival and the next take-off.
Domestic: 2 hours minimum time
International: 3 hours minimum time
There are the minimum times required to collect baggage and complete check-in procedures required for your second flight.
We are a point-to-point carrier and will not be liable for any misconnections brought about by delays, cancellations and any flight arrangements you may choose to make.
What I do not understand is they are saying to allow for 3 hours for Domestic to International transfers but you can buy an itinerary with less than a 3 hour Domestic to International transfer.
What is the transfer process in Manila. Will I have to change terminals from the domestic side to the international side? Any insights would be appreciated.
