MANILA, Philippines — The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (Caap) said on Monday it successfully completed a critical system upgrade of its Communications, Navigation, Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) system “without any operational disruptions or flight diversions.”
In a statement, the Caap said the upgrade was completed after more than two hours at 2:47 a.m., longer than its initial estimate of “60 minutes or less.”
It started at 12:31 a.m., and “concluded smoothly within the scheduled timeframe.”
By 3:01 a.m., all airport operations were back to normal and the temporary flow control measures were lifted at 3:05 a.m.
The Caap said that during the process, “international overflights safely traversed the Philippine Flight Information Region under procedural control provided by the Manila Area Control Center.”
