Get a free PAL ticket for your birthday!

Birthday celebrants in the next two-and-a-half months are in for a treat from Philippine Airlines – a free ticket on any domestic route for every similarly routed ticket purchased during the promotion period.

In a new promo dubbed “Halloween Trip and Treats for your Birthday,” PAL is offering a free domestic ticket to all those marking their natal day between September 16 and November 30, 2010.

To avail of the free tickets, birthday celebrants must purchase a revenue ticket between September 16 and 30, 2010. The celebrant should present proof of birthday along with the revenue ticket at any PAL ticket office and the complimentary ticket is immediately issued.

Both free and revenue tickets must reflect the same domestic route and class of service. The free ticket is for the birthday celebrant and cannot be given to another person. Both tickets must be used for travel between September 16 and November 30, 2010, except for a brief blackout period from October 28 to November 2, 2010.

PAL flies between Manila and 20 domestic destinations: Bacolod, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Cotabato, Davao, Dipolog, Dumaguete, General Santos, Iloilo, Kalibo, Laoag, Legaspi, Ozamiz, Puerto Princesa, Roxas, Tacloban, Tagbilaran and Zamboanga.

To avail of the promo, visit www.philippineairlines.com, any PAL ticket office or accredited travel agents. For inquiries and bookings, call PAL Reservations at (02) 855-8888 in Manila, (032) 340-0191 in Cebu and (082) 221-5513 in Davao.
