MANILA, Philippines — The main arrival curbside at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) Terminal 1 is now accessible to the public, according to the New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) on Friday.

NNIC said the new system is part of a “broader effort” to improve traffic flow and provide more convenience for passengers at the airport.

“Opening the arrival curbside to all passengers is a key feature of the newly reconfigured pickup system at Terminal 1, aimed at simplifying pickups for private vehicles, ride-hailing services, and metered taxis while easing congestion and improving the passenger experience,” NNIC said in a statement.

“With this change, arriving passengers no longer need to go to the ground floor passenger arrival extension area to meet their rides—they can now wait comfortably at the main arrival curbside,” NNIC added.

The economy ministry sees the German economy contracting by 0.2 percent this year, a dramatic downgrade from its prior estimate of 0.3 percent growth, according to the Sueddeutsche newspaper.

Most of the projects are in the Renewable Energy (RE) sector, BOI Director Ernesto delos Reyes Jr. said on the sidelines of an RE forum organized by the Economic Journalists Association of the Philippines and Aboitiz Power Corp. at the Securities and Exchange Commission headquarters in Makati City on Friday.

The terminal transfer shuttle bus services will now operate from this area, while the outer curbside, B1 to B6, will become an additional pickup area for passengers.

Meanwhile, rent-a-car services, coupon taxis, and metered taxis will be positioned to the arrival extension area on the ground level “to decongest the main terminal curbside further while maintaining reliable public transport access.”
