I wanted to get everyone's thoughts on this news. Just spotted an amazing fare from Cathay Pacific offering roundtrip flights from San Francisco to Cebu for only $691, all taxes included. As someone who's been monitoring Philippines routes for a while, this is significantly lower than the usual $900-1100 range we've been seeing. The fact that it's on Cathay Pacific, known for their solid service and Hong Kong connection, makes it even more interesting.
This kind of pricing could be a game-changer for West Coast travelers looking to explore the Philippines beyond Manila. Cebu's becoming increasingly popular with its beautiful beaches and historic sites, and this direct pricing might encourage more people to venture beyond the capital. Plus, with Cathay Pacific gradually rebuilding their routes post-pandemic, this could signal more competitive pricing on Asian routes coming our way.
What do you think this means for travelers?
