DOTr clarifies US advisory on NAIA was old, no new security issues
The Department of Transportation (DOTr) clarified on Sunday that US authorities have not issued a new security advisory against Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) or any Philippine airport.
An old 2018 travel advisory was mistakenly reposted by an airline and has since been removed following coordination between NAIA's operator, the New NAIA Infra Corporation (NNIC), and the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
The NNIC confirmed that TSA’s most recent security assessment of NAIA in February 2025 showed significant improvements with no new findings.
NNIC took over operations at NAIA on September 14, 2024, under a P170.6-billion concession agreement signed with the DOTr in March 2024.
The consortium includes San Miguel Holdings Corp., RMM Asian Logistics Inc., RLW Aviation Development Inc., and Incheon International Airport Corp.
