Cebu Pacific (CEB) is offering 50 percent off seat sale after flying its 45 millionth passenger from Incheon, South Korea to Cebu.

CEB to mark this milestone with a 50% off seat sale to all its 33 domestic and 16 international destinations. The 50% off seat sale is from July 30 to August 1, 2010, for travel from October 1 to November 30, 2010.

Mr. Jae-Soo Hur, a Korean who has previously visited Cebu and Boracay via Cebu Pacific, was in the departure area when his name was called as CEB’s 45 millionth passenger.

He was awarded two Cebu Pacific Incheon-Cebu-Incheon air tickets by CEB representatives Chris Kim and KS Kang, joined by Incheon International Airport Corporation Aviation Marketing Director Tae-Soo Yuh.

“I like going to Cebu on Cebu Pacific because the ticket fare is very attractive and I think that “Go Lite” is a good idea. In my opinion, no-frills airlines like CEB are better for young people like me because the savings on airline fares can be used for other activities. The flight schedule of CEB is also quite convenient for me since I’m an office worker and I can go to the Philippines after work,” said Hur.

Mr. Hur was also awarded a two-night stay in a Mactan seaview suite with breakfast, courtesy of the Imperial Palace Waterpark Resort and Spa in Cebu.
