From September 15, the Philippine low-cost airline Cebu Pacific will increase the hand-carry allowance for its 5J flights from 7 kilogrammes to 10 kilogrammes. This change has been confirmed after a social media announcement circulated online. The policy applies to all flights with the 5J code, which is used for Cebu Pacific's mainline network.
Passengers with confirmed seats can bring one hand-carry item, not exceeding 56cm x 36cm x 23cm, and one personal item under the seat in front of them. The new allowance applies to passengers travelling to and from destinations in the Philippines, including Cebu, Davao, and Caticlan, as well as international destinations like Dubai, Sydney, Guangzhou, and Taipei.
However, the higher allowance does not apply to Cebgo-operated DG flights, which have a standard hand-carry limit of 7 kilogrammes. Passengers with journeys involving both 5J and DG services should check their flight code, as different cabin baggage limits will apply.
