Yeah just like MRT 3. Estrada took credit for the MRT 3.
but this time, GMA is opening before her term ends. Besides, she might be the next president too, hope so.

PAL calls for speedy opening of NAIA 3

Philippine Airlines (PAL) reiterated its call for the immediate opening of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 following Wednesday’s power outage in NAIA Terminal 2.

The country’s flag carrier complained that the brownout, which lasted for about 14 hours, adversely affected its operation, delaying its 35 domestic and 19 international flights scheduled on that day.

A source said there would not have been any interruptions in PAL’s operation last Wednesday had the new airport been opened.

“At least we have another airport to divert flights to,” the source said. “We’re as much a victim here as the passengers whose flights were delayed.”

A PAL insider explained that NAIA 3, will give the flag carrier more room to adjust operations in case a similar incident happens again.

The operation of PAL’s international flights will be transferred to NAIA 3, while domestic operations will be retained at the Centennial terminal.

After last Wednesday’s incident, PAL said it had dispatched only 40 percent of its 35 domestic and 19 international flights.

The opening of the new airport terminal has been postponed after the Supreme Court voided in May 2003 the build-operate-transfer contract that the Ramos administration signed with Philippine International Air Terminal Co. Inc. (Piatco). L. Lectura

Exactly...that brownout was a small wake up call for the govt to open NAIA 3. I'm sure they will reach their opening date this time...

That article makes things clearer now. so PAL international will move to NAIA 3 while domestic will stay in NAIA 2. Maybe the other domestic flights from Cebu Pacific and Air Philippines will move to NAIA 2.

Well, it seems like they changed their mind. So NAIA 3 will be all international (PAL and foreign) NAIA 2 will be all domestic (PAL, Cebu Pacific, Air Philippines, etc.) and NAIA 1 will be??
