Congratulations to everyone who entered our photographic competition! The waiting is finally over as the winners are announced here! The response was overwhelming – as was the quality of the entries. Cebu Pacific fliers are certainly a talented bunch. The judges were impressed by the mix of both candid snapshots and scenic photography.

The competition was launched to celebrate 11 years of Cebu Pacific Air – and as our destinations have grown, so have the sources of inspiration for our entrants, an incredible 2,300 photographs were submitted.

The top ten entries each win a flight with Cebu Pacific to a domestic destination of their choice. Here are the winners.

Competition judged by:
Madeleine Ensor – Smile Editor • John Chua – Legendary Filipino photographer • Terence Goh – Creative Director, Ink Publishing • Lester Ledesma – Photo Editor, Ink Publishing.
The judges’ decision is final. Photographs cannot be returned.
