Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL) announced changes in its use of the NAIA Terminals, with an advise to its passengers to ‘please check the flight terminal assigned to your flight before proceeding to the airport, to ensure a hassle-free departure and arrival.’
PAL spokesperson Cielo Villaluna said that Vietnam, Cambodia and Singapore flights will use NAIA Terminal 1 from April 16, 2023.
“Starting April 16, 2023, Philippine Airlines flights to and from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Phnom Penh, and Singapore will depart from and arrive at Terminal 1 of Manila’s Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), along with PAL flights to the United States, Guam, Canada and Bali” Villaluna explained, adding that all other PAL international flights, as well as all domestic flights, depart from and arrive at NAIA Terminal 2.
Shuttle buses between Terminals 1 and 2 will be available for PAL passengers arriving in either terminal and connecting to a flight in the other terminal.
Passengers of other airlines may use the shuttle buses provided by the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA).
The transfer of these additional routes to Terminal 1 is part of a terminal reassignment initiative of the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) to ease congestion and improve passenger convenience at all terminals, she said.
