On the fence whether we should go to Cebu or cancel our trip.
Me and my friends have a trip planned to Cebu and Moalboal from 20th June to 29th June, 2026.
Everything has been booked a month prior, flights, hotels etc.
Two days ago, a devastating earthquake of magnitude 7.8 struck General Santos City in philippines. It has killed and injured several people (My prayers to the people of Philippines🙏🏻).
We have been looking forward to this trip for a very long time now but due to recent events we are reconsidering for our own safety. Flight cancellation would cost us a lot of money too since they won’t refund us the full cost.
My question is to the people of philippines, particularly in Cebu and Moalboal, whether is it safe for us to travel on the said dates or should we just cancel our trip and bear the financial loss for our own safety?
Afaik Cebu is far away from the place where the earthquake hit so it should be relatively safe but i’d rather hear it from the people of Cebu themselves.
