The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) on Sunday, March 26, announced the terminal reassignments at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) as it begins the second phase of its Schedule & Terminal Assignment Rationalization (STAR) program in April.

Once implemented, the international flights will be reassigned to Terminals 1 and 3, while Terminal 2 will be an all-domestic terminal.

“With this move, we expect a significant increase in Terminal 2’s capacity from 7.5M to 10M passengers a year, 20 to 25% more than its current rate,” MIAA General Manager Cesar Chiong noted.

“The STAR program is a well-studied undertaking. We met with affected airlines and stakeholders to make sure they come up with their readiness plan as part of these changes,” Chiong said.

“We advised them to get in touch with their affected passengers so they can inform them of the new terminal assignments,” he added, noting that there could be some minor inconveniences during this period hence our appeal for understanding as this is part of our strategic program to improve the overall experience of our customers.”  – gb
