00:00Because there are more passengers, there is a reduced process for entering Naia Terminal 3.
00:07From there, we are live with Sandra Aguinaldo. Sandra.
00:12Yes, Emil. Our countrymen are sleeping here in Naia Terminal 3.
00:19According to the leadership of Naia, there are more people today compared to the previous days.
00:26And more than 130,000 a day are expected to arrive here.
00:39To avoid queues at Naia Terminal 3, the new Naia Infracorporation, or NNIC, removed the X-ray machine
00:49so that passengers can continue to check-in counter of their airline.
00:54One of the passengers today for Ondas Long Weekend is Cha's family
00:59who came from Occidental, Mindoro, where they were hit by a typhoon.
01:03They went to Puntud, Amang, Pumanaw, Kamakailan. Now, they will return to Cebu.
01:10My father is special to us.
01:15He is also there. We are just thinking of visiting him.
01:21Mel Garcia and her siblings will return to Puntud with their parents in Tacloban City.
01:28The family reunion will follow.
01:31We will bring our parents. My brother's vacation is also from the USA.
01:36So that you can gather.
01:38According to the NNIC, they are already communicating with various stakeholders
01:42on the ground for the expected arrival of passengers.
01:46Airline companies were also advised to open check-in counters earlier
01:51so that people can't queue up.
01:53They also wanted the flights to be on time.
01:57The baggage handling system was also remedied
02:01where there are baggage that is separated from the flight by its owner.
02:05In other parts of the country, there is a queue at the immigration counter
02:10but it's faster because more people are on duty.
02:14The passenger movement is really high today.
02:19You can see the queuing at the immigration counter.
02:22There are continuous queues.
02:26According to the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines or CAAP,
02:29the flights are already heightened and alert not only because of the typhoon Ondas,
02:33but also because of the typhoon León.
02:35They were also assured that all equipment is in place so that there will be no problem with the flights.
02:44Emile, the captain told us that there are six cancelled flights
02:50and this is because of the timing of the flights to the destination of our countrymen.
02:56Their advice to those who will travel today is to always keep in touch with your airlines.
