Many of my friends are surprised that a 3-day stay in Beijing cost only 20,000 pesos, or that our five-day trip to Busan and Seoul in South Korea came up to just around 30,000. But there's really no big secret behind it! Just good old planning, budgeting and lots and lots of street food.
1. Watch out for Seat Sales
My favorite by far is Cebu Pacific's seat sales. Because they drop prices so low (as most Filipinos know, as low as 1 peso), I've been able to book tickets for places like Beijing, China for only 3,500 pesos roundtrip, Busan, South Korea for 2,500 pesos round trip, and for Boracay -- 482 pesos, roundtrip.
Piso Fares
This really slashes the cost of your trip drastically. Cebu Pacific usually times their seat sales during Philippine events, holidays, or special occasions. Our Busan tickets, for example, were the 11 peso promo fare that came out on November 11, 2011 (11.11.11).
