MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) has announced that Terminal 2 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airpoirt (NAIA) will soon be converted into a “domestic only” airport.
As such, MIAA will change the name NAIA 2 to MDA — Manila Domestic Airport.
A spokesperson for MIAA told The Adobo Chronicles that it will no longer make sense to have a domestic airport to bear the name “international.”
Is this the first step towards renaming the rest of NAIA back to its original name of Manila International Airport?
HongKong, China (The Adobo Chroniclers, Hong Kong Bureau) – Netizens reacted fiercely to a news article that Fifi, a dog from Hong Kong flew business class, with many saying that the cost of airfare could have fed many hungry children.
Well it turns out the four-year-old miniature long-haired dachshund, not only has a hefty bank account but also Twitter account with almost a million followers.
Reacting to criticism and hate messages, Fifi had this to say on her Twitter account:
Fifi’s post has so far elicited 21 comments, 60 re-tweets and 1,704 hearts.
SINGAPORE (The Adobo Chronicles, Singapore Bureau) – The results are in! The 2023 top world airports have been named by Skytrax. The annual awards were announced here today.
Singapore’s Changi Airport was named best airport, while the Philippines’ Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) bagged the “Beast Airport” title.
For decades now, NAIA has been known the world over for passenger woes, structural defects, sauna-like atmosphere and scandals like “tanim bala” (implanted bullets in passenger luggages), passenger cash and jewelry theft by airport personnel, not to mention flight delays and non user-friendly airport lounges. What a beast of a reputation!
The Philippines’ award could prompt the current Philippine administration to revert NAIA’s name to Manila International Airport while rebuilding the airport’s prestige and reputation.
