Subic Bay International Airport, inirekomendang buksan
MANILA, Philippines — Inirekomenda ni Sen. Richard Gordon na buksan na muli ang Subic Bay International Airport (SBIA) matapos ang insidente sa Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) makaraang sumadsad sa runway ang Xiamen airplane kamakailan na nagresulta sa kanselasyon ng maraming flights.
“Airports are the country’s doorway to tourism, trade and investment. Thus, when flights are delayed or cancelled, it incurs cost, not only to passengers who are stressed and inconvenienced because they miss their work, classes or other appointments, but also to the airlines and companies doing trade and commerce,” wika pa ni Sen. Gordon.
Sinabi ni Gordon, operational naman ang SBIA kaya puwedeng dito i-divert ang ilang flights bukod sa Clark International Airport (CIA).
“As it was, passengers of cancelled flights were still stranded at the NAIA up to yesterday (Sunday) and awaiting announcements on their flights. If the SBIA was already opened, flights could have been diverted to the two airports - SBIA and CIA,” giit pa ni Gordon.
