Flight Experience with Cebu Pacific Airline

Arrived home today from Manila but it was really supposedly last day. We fly with Cebu Pacific Airline because we don't have any choice. We get our ticket on the same day of our flight which is last November 14, friday. So when we went to PAL ticketing office, it is already fully-booked in all regular accomodations and only business class is available that is surely very high price. Our next choice was we checked Cebu Pacific and there they have available seats for regular rates.
I and my friend got ticket which is scheduled 2:20pm and then we went to where we staying, checked out our things and headed our way to NAIA, terminal 3. We arrived at exact time to check-in our luggages, the counter crew said that their will be a 30 mins delayed of our flight, then we said ok for we are not in a hurry and then we waited for our boarding time. When we are on plane already, the captain said that cagayan de oro weather is just cloudy so we thought there will be no problem at all. As we already arriving cagayan de oro airport, the captain announces that there's a bad weather condition at the place and we will wait for 20mins in the air before we can land on the airport. So the plane kept turning around the Lumbia airport for i guess more than 20mins. And then we just surprised when the captain said we are already heading our way, going back to Mactan International Airport in Cebu for we can't land at Cagayan de Oro. I thought we will just wait there and then will fly back again to Cagayan de Oro when we are secured to land already. But what i thought was wrong because after around 10 mins the captain announced that we will be going back to Manila. I felt so hungry coz we haven't eat our lunch yet before that flight and we arrived back to manila around 6:30pm. We just took some biscuits. We thought the Airline will give us some place to stay and something to eat because of what happened but we didn't get at all. They just told us to rebook our tickets and then get a new flight tomorrow. We end up staying at terminal 3 for the whole night, felt so mad with what they did to us. They did not even offer us water to drink while we are on the plane waiting for the results. Nobody to complain too because no officer on that terminal 3 that we can talk to, as they said their offices is at terminal 2 which is far from where we are. So if we will talk to officers we need to go there and we are too tired already to take a taxi just to look for someone to complain about what happened. I got around 3 hours slept at terminal chairs. My head was aching and really not feeling well when we took today's flight again. They did not gave us a special flight so we got the second scheduled flight at 8:30am, not the 4:00am flight as it is already fully booked. Made us to wait more time at the airport and waist of money because their foods there cost too much. Well, i thank God that we arrived Lumbia airport today safely though we had delayed of arrival too.
