MANILA International Airport Authority (MIAA) General Manager Eric Jose Ines joined Department of Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista and New NAIA Infrastructure Corp.(NNIC) General Manger Angelito Alvarez during the inspection of NAIA Terminals that started on October 30 in anticipation of the passenger surge leading up to Undas 2024.
Ines said this is the first ‘Oplan Biyaheng Ayos’ at NAIA since it has come under private operation.
The MIAA chief assured that MIAA, as the regulator and NNIC, as the operator, along with other agencies in the aviation sector, are prepared for the influx of travelers in the coming days.
He added that ‘OPLAN Biyaheng Ayos: Undas 2024’ aims to ensure the smooth operations at NAIA.
Meantime, the NNIC announced that a planned water service interruption by Maynilad Water Services, Inc. will affect Terminal 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
The interruption, scheduled for 16 hours from 2:00 p.m. on November 1 to 6:00 a.m. on November 2, is due to maintenance and repair activities at Maynilad’s Putatan Treatment Plant.
The NNIC assures passengers and stakeholders that it has already prepared contingency measures to ensure continuous water supply throughout the duration of the interruption.
The company said it will utilize existing water reserves from T3’s water tanks which have a combined capacity of 3.2 million liters. Maynilad will also be assisting by providing water trucks to replenish these tanks as needed.
In addition, water containers will be strategically placed in restrooms throughout the terminal. Water trucks will also be on standby to refill restroom water containers if necessary.
NNIC reminds all passengers and stakeholders to conserve water during this period. Simple steps like using water sparingly in restrooms and reporting any leaks can help ensure adequate water supply for all.
