CAAP

The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) is responsible for regulating and ensuring the safety of air travel across the country. It frequently issues flight restrictions and advisories, particularly near active volcanoes, to mitigate risks from volcanic ash and other hazards, as seen in recent updates concerning Mayon, Kanlaon, Bulusan, and Taal volcanoes. CAAP also manages increased air traffic during peak travel periods, such as holidays, by raising alert levels and coordinating with various agencies to ensure smooth and safe operations.
