NAIA turnover: Status quo to prevail, terminal assignments phased

The New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC), the private entity assuming management of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) on September 14, assures the public that airport operations will continue as usual upon their takeover.

Any future changes or improvements, including terminal reassignments, will be implemented gradually and strategically.

Speaking at the recent Aviation Forum hosted by the Economic Journalists Association of the Philippines (EJAP), NNIC General Manager Angelito Alvarez emphasized that terminal reassignments will not be a sudden, one-time event, but rather a carefully planned and phased process to be done in close coordination with airline stakeholders.

These changes are part of a broader plan to modernize the airport and elevate the overall passenger experience.

He added that NAIA travelers can expect a smooth transition with minimal disruptions as NNIC will focus on gradual improvements and phased terminal changes over time.
