According to news recently, passenger planes may have to keep some seats empty if they were to follow the new normal of social distancing inlight.

But there’s no need to worry for travel seekers, as Cebu Pacific spokesperson Charo Logarta-Lagamon has assured that the Gokongwei-led budget airline will continue to offer low-rates airfares.

According to Pep.ph recent article, Logarta-Lagamon said in an interview with DZMM Teleradyo last Tuesday, April 28, “Mayroon namang ibang ways para ma-manage natin the cost of a flight. So hindi naman necessary na tataas ito [at] wala nang Piso Fare..

“Mandate na po ng Cebu Pacific mula noong magsimula ang airline 24 years ago, mandato nap o na magbigay sa publiko ng abot-kaya at accessible na pamasahe.”

"So, hindi po mawawala iyong mga murang pamasahe.

"So 'wag muna tayong mangamba na wala nang Piso Fare kasi mandato na yan ng Cebu Pacific, saka there will always be room for budget fare."

In the same interview, the spokesperson delineated how Cebu Pacific will implement the new normal in airline travel.

She said, "Pagbalik ng passenger commercial flights, kapag tayong lahat ay puwede nang lumipad, magkakaroon tayo ng new normal.

"Kasama po dyan, unang-una, mas magiging conscious tayong lahat, magkakaroon ng protocols on safety, on sanitation, on health."

According to Logarta-Lagamon, these include "pagdidisinfect at paglilinis ng aircrafts" in-between flights and upon parking in boneyards.

Passengers will be required to wear face masks "mula pagtungtong niyo sa airport hanggang pagbaba niyo sa pupuntahan niyo."

Meanwhile, their personnel will wear personal protective equipment (PPE).

Logarta-Lagamon also hinted that online travel transactions may become the norm rather than an option, saying, "We will encourage na bawasan ang contact with the ground personnel para maintain pa rin tayo ng social and physical distancing.

"So we highly encourage, magcheck-in tayo using our website or sa app—online check-in para pipila nalang tayo para magdrop ng ating check-in baggage."
