The Air Carriers Association of the Philippines (ACAP) has expressed its support for the New NAIA Infrastructure Corp. (NNIC), which is set to take over the maintenance and operations of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) starting September 14.
ACAP, composed of Philippine carriers AirAsia Philippines, CebGo, Cebu Pacific, PAL Express, and Philippine Airlines, looks forward to the anticipated infrastructure improvements and their positive impact on passenger experience.
The group notes, however, passengers may expect adjustments in travel costs once new airport fees are implemented.
“ACAP will continue to collaborate with NNIC and the government to help cushion the effects of any travel cost adjustments and to ensure that the interests of both airlines and passengers are represented. We look forward to positive outcomes for all stakeholders in the course of the transition to privatized airport management”, ACAP stated.
ACAP remains committed to working closely with NNIC and is hopeful that the adjustments in fees will result in enhanced operational efficiency at NAIA, ultimately improving the customer experience.
