@miketanongako: NAIA makes a lot more sense once you realize it wasn’t built all at once. Its layout is really the result of decades of expansion as Metro Manila grew around the airport.

Noho :

in the case of NMIA, they built the airport at the expense of Several Bulacan and Pampanga Towns, submerging them permanently in water.

Sooo Viii :

Reason: poor urban planning

Lean /li.æn/ 🇵🇭🏳️‍🌈 :

u would think the govt would have a way to link the terminals by rail but nooooo.

MikeTanongAko :

Extra Fun fact: important distinction, While NAIA have four separate terminals they share the same runways. Also, Terminal 4 is the oldest terminal. Followed by Terminal 1, 2, and then 3. Di ko rin gets bakit ganun naming system nila 😅

spicytempura :

And NAIA is using intersecting runways instead of parallel. You can't operate both at the same time like in a parallel where one can be used for takeoffs and the other for landings. The airport wasn't designed for this capacity let alone handle huge international airlines.

Ranier Varela :

I wish they connected LRT 1 to Naia 1 and 4 back then

Harris Tan Co :

urban planning fail... methinks... if substancial structure was laid out as they move it to a new location, factors including construction infrastructures must also be factored in. unless it just made for a band aid solution...

Karelle del Rosario :

Why is it called NAIA? Isn’t it called MIA?

__J :

Failed urban planning thats why. Villamor area is part of the airport, up to Airforce area in Taguig.

SethyDy :

Iirc, NAIA is ranked the #1 worst airport in the world. The "doors/entrance" to the country being such a mess leaves an impression on how the Philippine government is.

pogsss01 :

Mahina lang sa planning ang bansa natin! Db nila naisip what might happen (the needs of time) in the next 20,30 years.

user81639163910 :

Nakakagalit

theSandies :

they should move the airport on what's okada solaire moa area instead.

💆🏻‍♀️tiya pakielamera :

1. ‘Cause our government is sheyt.
