Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) recorded a record-breaking 171,306 passengers on December 20, 2025.
From December 20 to December 23, 2025, NAIA saw over 675,000 passengers, a 6.59 percent increase from the same period last year.
The New NAIA Infra Corp. projects a total of 2.55 million passengers between December 20, 2025, and January 4, 2026.
NAIA General Manager Eric Ines noted a surge in both international arrivals and domestic departures, attributing it to Filipinos returning home and traveling to the provinces.
Despite increased passenger traffic, airport operations have remained smooth due to recent improvements like new immigration e-gates and check-in kiosks.
