MANILA, Philippines — The main arrival curbside at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) Terminal 1 is now accessible to the public, according to the New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) on Friday.
NNIC said the new system is part of a “broader effort” to improve traffic flow and provide more convenience for passengers at the airport.
“Opening the arrival curbside to all passengers is a key feature of the newly reconfigured pickup system at Terminal 1, aimed at simplifying pickups for private vehicles, ride-hailing services, and metered taxis while easing congestion and improving the passenger experience,” NNIC said in a statement.
