Brand New PAL Mabuhay Lounge Opens at Domestic Terminal - Mactan-Cebu International Airport

Domestic travelers of Philippine Airlines (PAL) are in for a new premium class treat when flying out of Cebu, as PAL opened a new 114-seater Mabuhay Lounge located at the ground level of Mactan-Cebu International Airport.

Designed by Adrian T. Chua Architects and Associates in collaboration with PAL, the new Mabuhay Lounge is a fusion of modern Filipino interiors, showcasing vibrant color tones including the flag carrier’s signature blue, the warmth of wooden touches and the modern feel of sleek furnishings.

Colors and lines evoke luxury and comfort in a distinctive space that allows passengers a chance to relax and recharge while waiting for their flights. The Lounge adheres to PAL’s mission to provide comfort, convenience, and warm hospitality for Business Class and Comfort Class passengers and Mabuhay Miles Elite, Premier Elite and Million Miler members.

"The Mabuhay Lounge serves as a sanctuary of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of travel. We would like to thank our PAL Chairman & CEO, Dr. Lucio C. Tan, and PAL Vice Chairman, Mrs. Carmen Tan, for their leadership and support in making this milestone possible," said PAL President and Chief Operating Officer Capt. Stanley K. Ng.

"The new lounge is part of Philippine Airlines’ strong commitment to build up Mactan-Cebu as our fastest growing hub – the heart of a robust network of PAL flights linking Cebu with 19 domestic and regional destinations. The Lounge is a new haven in our Cebu home," he added.

The dining area provides well-curated table arrangements and a buffet station offering an array of delectable food and refreshments – including PAL's signature PAL Arroz Caldo.

The seating area provides comfort with its plush lounging chairs and spacious layout. Private charging outlets and Wi-Fi connectivity are available for passenger convenience.

VIP shower rooms as well as segregated male, female and PWD rest rooms are equipped with the full range of amenities for utmost passenger comfort.

LIST OF PASSPORT REQUIREMENTS:

1. 𝗢𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
The first thing to do is to secure a slot by setting an appointment online. To give you enough lead time, it’s best to do it at least three months before your desired travel date. The earliest available slots might be too late for you because of the heavy volume of applications, especially during these extraordinary times when community quarantines forced government agencies to operate with a skeleton workforce and halted or delayed most government operations. We’ll tackle more of this in the HOW-TO section below.

NO WALK-INS are allowed. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, walk-in or courtesy lane services are suspended until further notice. This is to manage and control foot traffic. Those who are eligible to use the courtesy lane are required to book an online appointment. For urgent applications, you can send an email at [email protected].

But prior to the pandemic, the following were allowed to walk in:

Senior citizen and 1 companion. The companion must be an immediate family member. If not, the companion must show proof of travel arrangements with the senior to show they’re traveling together. It can be a plane ticket or hotel booking.
Person with disability and 1 companion. Companion must be an immediate family member. If not, the companion must show proof of travel arrangements to prove that they’re traveling together. It can be a plane ticket or hotel booking.
Pregnant woman. A medical certificate or records must be presented if the baby bump is not yet noticeable.
Minor seven (7) years old or below, plus their parents and minor siblings.
Solo parent and their minor child. The parent must present a valid solo parent card.
OFWs: Land-based and Sea-farers. Must bring any of the following: valid iDOLE card, work visa, employment contract, or seaman’s book stamped at international border less than 365 days from date of application.

2. 𝗗𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺
When setting an appointment, you need to complete the application form. Filling out the application form is usually done online. You will receive an e-mail confirming your appointment schedule when you are done paying for the application processing fee. The e-mail also contains the link to your application form. Click the link to download, and then print out your accomplished form.

If you need a blank copy of the application form, you can get it here. You need to print it out on A4-size paper.

3. 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲
The copy of your birth certificate must be:
