PAL extends P88 fare promo for Holy Week

-

MANILA – Philippine Airlines has extended its popular P88 fare promotion on any domestic route to the high Lenten holy days of Good Friday and Black Saturday (March 21 and 22, 2008) – a move seen to benefit travelers during one of the peak travel periods of the year.

The promo, dubbed “Holy Week Special,” slashes PAL fares to a flat rate of P88 for a one-way flight on Fiesta Class (economy) between Manila and any of PAL’s 17 domestic points.

The special fare is already being sold at PAL ticket offices and accredited travel agents until February 15, 2008.  It is valid for travel from March 21 to 22 only.

Covered by the promo are all PAL-operated flights between Manila and Bacolod, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Cotabato, Davao, Dipolog, General Santos, Iloilo, Kalibo, Laoag, Legazpi, Puerto Princesa, Roxas, Tacloban, Tagbilaran and Zamboanga.

It follows a similar campaign last month, called “Seat All You Can,” that featured P88 one-way flights to and from any PAL domestic point. That promotion drew a strong market response, prompting the flag carrier to revive it for the tailend of the Holy Week.

Complementing the current promo is a companion scheme that offers passengers buying one full-fare domestic ticket the chance to purchase a second for P88 each way on selected domestic flights.

Unlike the Holy Week promo, this one has longer travel validity – from February 6 to March 12, 2008 for the second ticket.  (Like any normal, full-fare ticket, the first ticket is valid for one year.)  The promo fare is currently being sold until February 15, 2008.

It covers only the following PAL flights: Manila-Laoag vice-versa (PR 229, PR 226, PR 228); Manila-Bacolod (PR 131); Manila-Butuan (PR 475); Manila-Cebu vice-versa (PR 843, PR 842, PR 868, PR 856); Manila-Davao vice-versa (PR 809, PR 816); and Manila-Iloilo vice-versa (PR 139, PR 146).

Passenger names, routes and dates on the first (full-fare) and second (promo-fare) tickets may vary.

For both the Holy Week and the companion promotions, a confirmed booking is required.   All promo fares are exclusive of taxes and fuel and insurance surcharges.  For further details, passengers are advised to call the 24-hour PAL Reservations number, (02) 855-8888.
