CEBU - Local carriers welcomed President Bongbong Marcos’ plan to upgrade the airports and build more internatio­nal airports in the country.

Marcos said doing so would improve connectivi­ty to strategic locations and this would help decongest the bottleneck in the country's main gateway, the Ninoy Aquino Internatio­nal Airport.

“That's good news for airlines! We look forward to better airports because that will make travel more convenient and enjoyable for passengers," Cebu Pacific (CEB) spokespers­on Carmina Romero told the Philippine News Agency.

CEB chief commercial officer Xander Lao earler expressed his hope that the Marcos administra­tion would continue investment­s in airports, and well as training of air traffic controller­s. “We need to increase the capacity so that more flights can be accommodat­ed to and from the country,” he said.

Philippine Airlines chief operations officer Stanley Ng also agreed with Marcos that the constructi­on of new internatio­nal airports will help boost tourism targets, and generate economic growth that will create employment opportunit­ies in the aviation and tourism industries.

“New access roads will help these economic benefits to flow into local communitie­s. As industry stakeholde­rs, we welcome and support these plans announced by President Marcos in his SONA,” he said.

Budget airline Airasia Philippine­s said it supports the administra­tion's vision for better, reliable, and safe air transport through infrastruc­tural developmen­t, particular­ly the improvemen­t of the existing airports and the establishm­ent of new ones.

The airline said it will remain aggressive and competitiv­e in domestic and internatio­nal air travel and cargo as it serves a greater number of Filipino travelers and overseas Filipino workers, spokespers­on Steve Dailisan said.

“The Marcos administra­tion can expect Airasia to support its vision by adhering to the highest standards of safety in all of its flights; and facilitate fleet and route expansion to cater to the growing demand of passenger and cargo traffic in the different provinces,” he added.

Dailisan said the airline will complement the administra­tion's vision with strategic collaborat­ions with stakeholde­rs through initiative­s like the a-fest (Airasia Fiesta) which he said actively promotes the various festivitie­s nationwide. (Maria Cristina Arayata)
