Restrictions on international travel still in effect under GCQ, says BI

The Bureau of Immigration will continue to implement international flight travel restrictions at the NAIA even when Metro Manila transitions to GCQ starting June 1. | CGonzalesINQ

“As a consequence, our operations at the NAIA are still downscaled and our personnel there are still on skeletal and rotational deployment,” Morente said in a statement.

“Nonetheless, we assure the public that we are always ready to resume full, normal operations in our international airports once the government decides to ease or lift these travel restrictions,” said Morente. As for passenger flights, Medina said these are mostly repatriation flights that transport returning overseas Filipino workers and chartered sweeper flights that bring foreigners stranded in the country back to their homelands.
