The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) said the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 2 will be exclusive to domestic flights starting July.
“By June 16, the remaining international flights of Philippine Airlines will be moved to Terminal 1 para po by July 1, Terminal 2 will become all domestic na po,” MIAA Senior Assistant General Manager Bryan Co told state television PTV Tuesday.
A terminal rationalization plan has been in place since December last year to decongest immigration lines in the gateway’s two other terminals.
“Ang improvement po nito sa ating system in terms of the Immigration… ang kanilang mga tauhan ay mai-re-redeploy na natin sa ibang existing terminals natin which is Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 upang makatulong sa pago-augment ng manpower requirements natin doon dahil isa po ito sa mga nakaka-contribute sa paghaba ng pila,” Co said.

By doing so, Co said the terminal design will be more efficient and utilized as to how it was originally intended, noting that Terminal 2 was basically designed to cater domestic flights.
The scheme is expected to increase the terminal’s “capacity by 20-25 percent,” said Co.
Apart from Philippine Airlines flights, the terminal will also be hosting AirAsia flights.
