Smart Communications and Cebu Pacific have
signed a strategic partnership agreement that will enable
passengers aboard Cebu Pacific's inbound international flights to
purchase a Cebu Pacific Fun Data SIM powered by Smart Bro.
With the Cebu Pacific Fun Data SIM, tourists
will be able to enjoy 1.5 GB worth of data, which is valid for
15 days. The SIM also includes 100 text messages and 10 minutes of
voice calls to all Philippine mobile networks, as well as discounted rates for international calls.
The
LTE-capable SIM, which costs 500 Pesos, can be used with a variety of gadgets, since it is
pre-cut for devices using regular, mini, or nano-SIM slots.
"With international tourist arrivals expected to
grow further in the coming years, we see a bright spot in
targeting foreign travelers who want to experience what the
Philippines has to offer," said Michele Curran, First Vice
President, Data and International Services at Smart. "Partnering
with Cebu Pacific Air opens a wider market for Smart as they
continually expand their route network to more countries
worldwide."
Cebu Pacific flies from 28 international
destinations to the Philippines, and serves growing foreign
tourist markets from South Korea, Japan, China and Australia,
among others. It also operates the most extensive network in the
country, providing foreign visitors convenient access to the
Philippines' many islands.
