Gov’t employees on official business to get Cebu Pacific discounts
All government employees on official travel will be given discounts, with the processing fees waived.
Government agencies across the Philippines will be able to tap into the discounted fares via the Philippine Government Electronic Procurement Service (PhilGEPS) of the Department of Budget and Management.
“This is a huge step into our goal of getting the highest value for the hard earned money of our Filipino taxpayers. The DBM estimates savings for more than P1 billion in aggregate discounts and waived fees under the GFA,” Budget Secretary Benjamin M. Diokno said during the GFA signing in Pasay City.
Cebu Pacific President and CEO Lance Gokongwei noted the agreement can foster financial and economic growth.
The airline offers flights to 36 domestic and 30 international destinations across Asia, Australia, the Middle East, and USA. ##— (By JON VIKTOR D. CABUENAS, GMA News
