Quick answer: Yes, you can book Cebu Pacific now and pay later. Cebu Pacific is the low cost way home from Dubai to Manila, with connections to Cebu, Davao and Iloilo. Checked baggage is extra, so we add the right bag before quoting. We issue the ticket once the first payment goes through, and the rest is split with Tabby, Tamara or your bank card.
Cebu Pacific is the low cost way home to the Philippines from Dubai, flying to Manila with the option to connect to Cebu, Davao, Iloilo and other islands. The base fare does not include checked baggage, so we help you add the right bag and then split the total into monthly payments.

Cebu Pacific fares in monthly payments
With Cebu Pacific the cheapest fare is rarely the real price once you add a bag, so we quote the total first and then put it on Tabby, Tamara or your bank card plan. Tabby goes up to 12 months. See our instalment guide for how the plans compare.
If a Dubai to Manila return on Cebu Pacific with 20 kg checked baggage costs AED 1,500, a 6 month plan comes to about AED 250 per month, plus any plan fee shown in the link.
