But it still is lacking. I recently travelled through it and observed the following:<br />a) air conditioning was not working properly, apparently "to be repaired";<br />b) the whole place is dim, apparently the lighting is not all working or someone is trying to play cheapskate;<br />c) the windows are dirty - with all the manpower we have in this country, at least the windows could be cleaned;<br />d) the moving sidewalk is not working in the arrivals area;<br />e) security folk on the planeside apparently don't know their procedures and cause quite a bit of confusion;<br />f) restaurants appear shabby, staff untrained for public duty;<br />g) restrooms need an urgent upgrade and are dimly lit;<br />h) immigration is slow - why can't Filipino passports make use of the chip imbedded and local residents holding ACR-I cards also make use of the technology to speed up the processing;<br />i) there needs to be a dedicated, free bus service between terminals, operated by the MIAA, to ease transfers for passengers. At the moment, there is no such service, unlike in other countries.<br />If we want a truly good international airport, we need to push, and push hard. It's our money. It's our country. We have the right to demand!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780063429957455842.post-77407130162364109142014-06-16T14:28:37.604+08:002014-06-16T14:28:37.604+08:00That's why NAIA stinks and needs to be bulldoz...That's why NAIA stinks and needs to be bulldozed and those corrupt officials who profited from it for decades buried along with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780063429957455842.post-9945466944148020672014-06-16T13:07:51.789+08:002014-06-16T13:07:51.789+08:00Last year, 32,856,597 people went through NAIA.

And that does not even include landing fees, franchise, outlet and space rentals, and other ancilliaries NAIA makes.

Therefore an airport departure tax is one way to collect a bit of tax from these. Of course, departure taxes penalise frequent travellers who might have to pay it 20 or 50 times a year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780063429957455842.post-82112393820449299152014-06-14T09:07:59.284+08:002014-06-14T09:07:59.284+08:00How about those OFW's who are exempted to pay ...How about those OFW's who are exempted to pay these terminal fee's? it should have an option in online booking or agencies if your OFW's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780063429957455842.post-18703529523754655202014-06-13T19:09:27.980+08:002014-06-13T19:09:27.980+08:00I understand that the government is collecting onl...I understand that the government is collecting only P100/person, but why even collect.

Once other airlines start using T3 for international flights, patronage of such cafes will soar. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780063429957455842.post-54171354618766261702014-06-13T14:52:30.953+08:002014-06-13T14:52:30.953+08:00Correct.
