First look: Long-haul, budget flights of Cebu Pacific
Airbus delivers Cebu Pacific's first widebody A330-300 aircraft
Budget carrier Cebu Pacific unveiled its Airbus A330 aircraft that will mount the first low-cost, long-haul flight by a Philippine carrier.
In a ceremony at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport grounds on Thursday, September 12, Cebu Pacific president and CEO Lance Gokongwei said the aircraft will be used for their inaugural Manila-Dubai flight in October.
The aircraft is meant for the Dubai route, but it will fly the Manila-Hong Kong and Manila-Cebu routes in the meantime.
This is Cebu Pacific's second Airbus A330. The first, which arrived in June, is flying to Singapore and Incheon.
The airline's Dubai flights will be 35% cheaper than the ones offered by other carriers, according to Gokongwei.
The new wide-bodied aircraft has 436 all-economy seats.
The aircraft will serve long-haul destinations, which "we cannot reach with our narrow-bodied aircraft," Gokongwei said. Long-haul flights involve travel of over 4 hours.
Below are some pictures taken inside Cebu Pacific's A330 aircraft:-

Passengers can opt to pay for seats with more legroom
For passengers who want to be in seats with more legroom to make an 8-hour flight like Manila-Dubai more may opt to pay for more.
Cebu Pacific's seat selector option has these price points:
Choosing a standard or regular seats during online purchase of plane tickets will cost an extra P250.
The option for "Standard Plus," or seats with 32-inch seat pitch located at the rear section of the aircraft, costs an additional P500.
Passengers who prefer "Premium seats," or those located at exit rows, costs P1,500 more.
There are 11 cabin crew to accompany each A330 flight
Internet connection is available for a fee.
Prices for wifi services in A330 flights are as follows: $5 for 20MB; $10 for 50MB and $20 for 100MB
