NAIA to Implement New Terminal Assignments to Ease Congestion

In an effort to reduce congestion at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), the New NAIA Infrastructure Corp. (NNIC) has announced new terminal assignments for some of the country’s major airlines.

During a briefing on Monday, September 9, NNIC General Manager Angelito Alvarez detailed the changes, which will impact Philippine Airlines (PAL), Cebu Pacific, and AirAsia.

Under the new terminal plan:

Terminal 1 will be exclusively for Philippine Airlines (PAL).

Terminal 2 will handle domestic flights for both PAL and Cebu Pacific.

Terminal 3 will be dedicated to all international flights.

Terminal 4 will serve AirAsia.

While the changes are expected to alleviate airport congestion, Alvarez emphasized that no specific date has been set for their implementation. The new terminal assignments will take effect only when all necessary preparations are complete.
