snoop1130 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Passengers crowd the departure lobby while others set up camp inside the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 in Pasay City on Monday midnight, Jan. 2, 2023 as the influx of passengers still builds up despite announcements made by Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista that the airport is back to normal operations around 5:50 PM on Sunday, Jan. 1, 2023. Numerous flights were canceled earlier due to a technical glitch and the power outage at the Air Traffic Management Center of the NAIA. The STAR / Miguel de Guzman MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. apologized Friday over the technical failure that took the entire Philippine airspace offline just in time for the New Year’s Day travel rush affecting at least 56,000 passengers. “I’m sorry. Of course, we have to apologize to our countrymen, especially those who came from abroad because their vacation time is limited,” Marcos told reporters partly in Filipino after inspecting the Ninoy Aquino International Airport. “We’re asking for your forgiveness, but we are doing everything so that this does not happen again,” he added.
