The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) launched on Wednesday, July 10, a new Transit Lounge at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1.
MIAA General Manager Eric Ines said the transit lounge is situated at the pre-departure area adjacent to the OFW Lounge and will open 24 hours daily to provide a comfortable and relaxing space for passengers with connecting flights.
He said the launching was in partnership with the Philippine Airlines.
Under the partnership agreement, Ines the lounge will be maintained and operated by the MIAA while PAL will provide the amenities such as comfortable seating, charging stations, shower facilities, and amusement options, as a generous act of support.
"We trust that travelers will find the facility as a welcome respite while enroute to their final destinations," said Ines.
PAL president and chief operating officer Stanley K. Ng said, "Our working partnership with the MIAA on this much-needed project has yielded positive results. This transit lounge ensures the comfort and convenience of passengers traveling through the Manila gateway."
