Third-Party
Price drop from yesterday! And you can get to the islands as well via Manila for cheap! (I can personally recommend Palawan (Puerto Princesa, El Nido), and especially Blue Palawan for a few days of luxury in paradise.
If looking for a trip anywhere in Asia, Cebu is cheaper for Philippines, but this sale will be your go-to for a cheap price elsewhere.
Please note: Cebu notoriously only has a few tickets on each date. So if you click one below and it's changed, it's likely they've sold that date. I've tried to make it as accurate as possible.
These flights are return, and can get similar prices on the way back, but there are just too many combinations to process and display, the below has taken hours of searching while watching the cricket. Also worth searching and comparing prices for two one way tickets and a return as it can be cheaper.

I did this flight a few weeks ago and tbh it was fine (mostly because it was about 30% full) so plenty of spare seats.
That being said - we paid to upgrade into a front row seat with extra legroom and there was a guy sitting next to us spreading his legs as wide as he could and taking up both arm rests and encroaching into my personal space (me sitting in the middle seat). So if it was a full flight I could imagine it would be extremely uncomfortable.
So I would wait until closer to your flight date to see how busy the flight is before spending money on seat upgrades.
Flight left on time. Airport was pretty crap but it is what it is for the price. Good option for connecting through to rest of SE Asia.
