New carrier Dubai to Manila
Cebu Pacific have just received a new 330 and will use it between Manila and Dubai.
Promises 30% less cost than other carriers.
A quick look ecco fare, 340 aeds..... plus plus plus plus plus.
with no baggage, but with taxes and hot food service, a typical price is circa 2100 aeds.
Etihad just sent me E Mail offering full service for 2200 inc bags etc, etc.
I would expect that the consolidators rate on Cebu will be less, and thus attract the Phil work force and their employers.
