What's the cargo limit on cebu pacific?

A bit OT but here goes...

I just got my OW certification last Nov 2005.... Been diving ever since. I have lived in Leyte (Isabel-Leyte, about 2-3 hours ride from Southern Leyte and 2-3 hours ride from Tacloban) for the duration of my teenage years yet i never knew or heard about diving in Southern Leyte (or plain scuba diving for that matter). And I go home there every Christmas! And i never logged a single dive in Leyte!!!!!

Now that Caloy has opened the door to Southern Leyte for all of us here in PPD, I feel that you should visit my place in Isabel if you still have time then join you guys diving there. Sounds like a plan? Oh I think so.

20 kilos check in baggage, 7 kilos hand carry. Same as Philippine Airlines, but if you have a PAL sports plus privilege that's an add'l 30 kilos more.
