MANILA, Philippines — The New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) announced a month-long infrastructure project at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 starting on Wednesday, July 15, prompting travel advisories for passengers.
The project focuses on expanding the terminal's departure curbside and installing a new canopy designed to shield travelers from inclement weather and extreme heat.
"We're upgrading the Terminal 3 curbside with a new canopy that will provide passengers with better shelter from rain and heat as they are dropped off and enter the terminal," the NNIC said in its advisory.
The private operator said temporary traffic changes will be in effect from July 15 to August 14, 2026, daily from 9:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m.
During these hours, the inner departure lane will be temporarily closed, while passenger drop-offs will continue through the remaining open lanes.
NNIC added that if traffic builds up, departing passengers may also be dropped off at Arrival Bays 1 and 8, and use the nearest elevators to reach the check-in counters.
NNIC will deploy traffic marshals and install directional signs to manage vehicle flow. Travelers are advised to allocate extra travel time and follow all airport personnel directions.
