AirAsia Philippines and Malaysia AirAsia are transferring all international flight operations from Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 to Terminal 1 starting March 29 to streamline travel during the anticipated Holy Week surge.
The terminal reassignment is part of the ongoing program by New NAIA Infrastructure Corp. (NNIC) to optimize terminal operations and improve the passenger journey across the airport. Under the new arrangement, all check-in, boarding and baggage claim services for international flights will be handled at Terminal 1.
AirAsia Philippines chief executive and president Suresh Bangah said the transition is designed for guest convenience.
“We are excited about this transition as it is designed with our guests’ convenience in mind. With our international flights moving to Terminal 1 and our domestic operations currently at Terminal 2, both terminals will now be in closer proximity to each other,” Bangah said.
All domestic flights will remain at Terminal 2.
