For SGN - MNL you basically have 2 options. PR and 5J.
The 5J flight is a red-eye if I'm not mistaken. For a more reasonable timing, you can try PR which I believe has 1 flight daily.

Cebu Pacific is by far the cheapest. Yeah, they do have an inconvenient midnight flight, but they also run a 09:30 service too. it's a no frills airline, if you want a meal or extra luggage you have to pay extra so if that affects you you could pay a bit extra and go with Philippine Airlines or Thai

Cebu Pacific(5J) is cheap basic transportation. By the time you add in the extra charges One can find a full service flight on PR or CX.
I had in morn than one instance where a late purchase on PR J return MNL HKG was cheaper than 5J when all the other needed amenities (luggage etc) are factored in.
