Hey guys starting this thread to discuss about Cebu Pacific A320 pilot recruitment which started recently .

Cebu pacific is dishonest company they will make it shiny and beautiful ,and then they will change your contract. A contract in philippine means nothing .they will hold your contract telling you that you need to wait to legalize it after you pass the exams.

They will pass you a different contract with way less money just be careful don't come here unless your desperate for a job or type and don't be fast to sign the contract - so many pilots ate the bait

Do a search here on CP and read, and you'll discover why, CP has a difficult time keeping pilots, horrendous schedules especially plenty of red eyes flights, inept management and questionable training.
Then after six months you will most likely go onto local terms and condition with low pay.
If you still want to work there, proceed at your own peril.

There are better options out there i.e, AJX, Cathay Dragon.

I'm shocked at the amount of negative comments there are about Cebu Pacific. I also find it strange how I meet the requirements for Cathay Pacific and Singapore Airlines with my UK College A Levels, yet I hear I need a 4 year college degree to get into Cebu Pacific? I haven't seen anything on their website about that requirement. The only airline I've seen in The Philippines that states that is Philippine Airlines.

Maybe I just go ahead and work for Singapore or Cathay.


SIA / CX versus Cebupacific ???.... thats no Brainer !

I was going to apply to them, not no more. I have just been invited to do the Cebu online assessment but from what Im reading I should not bother.

Any CP pilots wish to chime in on what it is like there and if all the rumours are true?

There is definitely a training bond attached to this. Im not sure how many years exactly.

Depends. Depends if you are a local or an expat. Depends on what they feel, if they like you or not. In other words, it just depends.

They want training bonds for type rated pilots. Their idea of a training bond is to put the pilot into indentured service, as a method to force someone to work there.

And the training they give is not anywhere near worth what they charge for the "training bond".

Oh, and want to resign? Your contract requires giving them 90 days notice. And once you give that notice, be prepared to spend that 90 days getting abused to no end. And your final paycheck? You won't see it, they will hold it back while they look into your pay account to see if anything is owed them. Several pilots have never seen their last month's pay.

Tell us again how you don't think this is such a bad operation?

Salaries? Depends.

Training bonds? Depends.

In other words, no two pilots are treated the same. This airline has the lowest wages, the worst schedules, no real benefits and a training program that is a joke by western standards.

Thanks again for your response. I just wanted to get an idea of how much lower they pay compared to other airlines.

I guess if western standards are what you are acustomed to then I don’t blame you.
For a local, I wonder if it’s even worth it for them.
But I guess lying to employees isn’t a virtue in any culture.

I just wanted to delve deeper into why they would treat 2 pilots differently. Ive heard that there are expats running the A330 show in Ceb Pac, subsequently treating Filipinos with less dignity. Not sure how that workout. But then again it’s wether or not they like you.

All the contracts are differents... and a contract for CP is just a piece of paper...

To give an idea, for a captain is from 115000 pesos basic to ??? With 3000 pesos by hour.
Of course if they give you the salary...
20 000 pesos during the training... can take 9 months.. so good luck for survive in Manila.

This airline is in a third world country where doctors make roughly P50,000/month and a lawyer about the same. High poverty rate and high unemployment rate. So to a local, a job where they can make P200,000+ a month is golden, even though the working conditions are poor.

Also remember it's very difficult for a local to pay for the training to even get in the door, hence why CP must depend upon expats to fill in the work force. But CP thinks expats will put up with the same poor working conditions of the locals, and there is the major flaw and why there is a revolving door of pilot hiring.

Another huge problem is CP's middle managers which are locals. These are lackey's who are impressed with titles and possess no abilities to actually manage. They think management means to use fear and intimidation. Truly the blind leading the blind.

Thanks again for replying at length. I can just imagine it all very clearly now. It seems to be the way with everything there in all industries. More
of a cultural thing.
Especially the obsession with ‘titles’. How sad.

I hope everyone can see this now and make a very informed decision on what is worthy of their time.

Just to reconfirm about Cebu...I recently finished my assessment with a SIM at PAAT near Manila ...I heard a lot of serious bad things about the airline including forcing an expat to change over to a local contract...I went thru CAE Parc and they recently changed over to a 4/1 commuting contract from a 6/2 contract earlier (period of contract 2 yrs). Pay wise they are offering a reasonable amount in USD.

I am most likely not signing the contract but would still like to know from someone who is currently on the airline or has worked there in the recent past about the company ethics and why people have negative things to say about the airline.

Thanks in advance for any insider info/ input before I take the final call and tell CAE .....in any case 4/1 does not work for me...I asked about 8/2 but they said no...

I am almost complete with my assessment for the cadet program of Cebu pacific.
After reading the comments here on this thread, I am having second thoughts on pursuing my application with the airlines.
They offer a fly now pay later scheme but you would have a contract bond with them for 10 years and they will deduct 15% of your monthly salary to pay for the training

I feel like if I take this deal, ill be indebted to the company for a long time with poor working conditions.
Any thoughts about this in the long run if I accept the offer? Maybe I can build my flying hours here and move to another airline?

It's called "indentured servitude". You will become a slave to this company, and what you will be paying them is far, far more than you will get in return.

Are you really willing to give up 10 years of your life to a company that treats employees terrible? And they will let you know, often, that they in fact OWN you.

Your call. My advise is to run, now.

On Monday Cebu Pacific sent seven Airbus 321-211 and two A330-343 airplanes to Asia Pacific Aircraft Storage (APAS) in Alice Spring Australia for indefinite storage.

It was reported that the airline was seeking sale and leaseback arrangements for 17 A320ceo aircraft as a part of its ongoing review of its long-term operations but appears to have failed, and rumor’s are now that Cebu are now trying to sell a couple of their A320 for around USD1.5 million but due to the oversupply of available aircraft on the second hand market might find it hard to find buyers.

Based on what I've heard from the guys inside CEB, they are definitely in need for both Capts and FO's alike and are willing to accept NTR for either position however, if you are NTR, you would be given
a training bond of at 3 least years (not sure on the actual amount) for a full course training. This goes for both NTR and A320 rated pilots whose currency have lapsed. They do have preference on A320 rated guys
despite the currency lapse issue......but they are willing to entertain non-rated guys depending on the applicant's credentials (TRI/TRE, 4-5k+ PIC time). Salary is pretty decent for PH standards...6k-7k usd as base salary
for capts (pretty comfortable for living in manila)...not sure on the FO's though...

Hope this helps on your decision making...

What is your totally hours? Apparently its only for the locals. I have around 4000hrs on light turboprop and they said I am not qualified.

I've asked around bruh and they prefer guys with turboprop multi experience for the NTR. Preferably on the king airs....Apparently, jets don't count for them as well. I've got around 8000 on the A320
and 2000 as PIC on it....

Thanks for your reply. I only found some outdated info regarding CEB salary online on some agency websites. So are we looking at 6-7k + some flight pay so around 8k usd net for A320 cpt ? If that is the case, I find it quite low. While it is very good for locals, its a bit low for expats, considering that you could make 10-11k in the region with the same cost of living (Vietnam, India,..). I have strong incentives to move to PH, but I was hoping maybe in the region of 9-10k usd net. Is that possible ?

9-10k is definitely possible....6-7k is just base pay....excluding flight pay....I haven't verified the flight pay yet but I believe its somewhere in the region of 75-80usd/hour and they're doin really busy these couple months....even more when christmas kicks in....guys I know
averages 80-90 hours a month... their schemes do grind you down but i've heard that management is taking steps to mitigate them (no more back-to-back red eye and early-morning flights etc...) but of course, there are some very lucrative offers elsewhere...All i'm sayin
is with these kind of figures, you can live very comfortably in manila with the misis and 2 kids.....

and by the way, base pay is divided into groups according to your PIC time....so 6-7k isn't the top of it
