The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) is preparing for the possible resumption of flights in light of the serious setbacks suffered by the aviation industry during the national health emergency.
This general view shows terminal one without any passengers or traffic from lack of flights due to the COVID-19 coronavirus at the international airport in Manila on May 28, 2020.
“While the mandate of the DOTr is to provide transportation, mobility and convenience, it is now also vested with the responsibility to help in preventing the spread of the coronavirus…Our approach will be partial, gradual, calculated, and by phases.” Commercial domestic flights will be allowed between areas under General Community Quarantine and even expanding operations in international aviation gateways to include Clark and Davao.
MIAA General Manager Ed Monreal said that all four NAIA terminals are sanitized including gangchairs, electronic gadgets, counters, tables as the comfort rooms are sanitized every two hours to protect airport users and employees from bacteria and some kind of viruses.
