Cebu Pacific is offering its passengers RT-PCR tests at only P2,500—the cheapest among local carriers—to make COVID-19 screening more accessible for those looking to fly domestically. Just note that this rate is solely for passengers booked on Cebu Pacific and Cebgo as part of the airline's "Test Before Boarding" process, the carrier said.

RT-PCR test results are released within 48 hours, while a guaranteed 24-hour turnaround period is priced at P3,200 for both laboratories. Testing is done through its two accredited partners: Health Metrics, Inc. and Safeguard DNA Diagnostics Inc. 

Booking test appointments can be done online and customers will be redirected to each laboratory's page to finalize their schedule.

"We continue to do what we can to rebuild the public's trust and confidence in air travel," said Candice Iyog, Cebu Pacific vice president for Marketing and Customer Experience. "We also made it a point to see where else we can reduce costs for our passengers. We are happy to work with our laboratory partners to make available the cheapest RT-PCR swab test rates that may conveniently be booked on our website."

Antigen tests are available at P700 via the Philippine Airport Diagnostic Laboratory. The same lab also offers Cebu Pacific passengers RT-PCR tests priced at P3,300.

The testing facility at the NAIA Terminal 3 is also open for walk-ins daily, with fees to be directly paid to the Philippine Airport Diagnostic Laboratory (PADL).

Don't forget to double-check with the local government of your destination for latest updates and requirements. Safe travels!
