NINOY Aquino International Airport (NAIA), operated by New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC), has introduced a new fleet of vehicles to support its ground operations, improve passenger convenience, and ensure the safe and efficient flow of movements at the airport.
The new additions include two new ambulances equipped with advanced medical tools and staffed by trained paramedics to provide swift medical assistance when needed.
Three “follow-me” vehicles have also been added to guide aircraft to their designated parking positions more efficiently, helping minimize taxi times and contributing to smoother operations.
Four inter-terminal coasters have also been deployed to facilitate seamless airside transfers, providing passengers with a more comfortable and efficient way to move between terminals, particularly those with connecting flights or mobility challenges.
“These vehicles are essential to support efficient operations and improve the overall passenger experience at NAIA. They complement NAIA’s existing fleet and reflect our commitment to providing a seamless and reliable airport experience,” NNIC president Ramon S. Ang said.
The deployment of these new vehicles comes as NAIA continues to experience rapid growth. For the whole of 2024, NAIA welcomed a record-breaking 50.1 million passengers—a 10.43% increase from 2023.
Having additional vehicles ensures smooth operations during peak periods, maintenance schedules, and emergencies. It also allows NAIA to maintain high service standards while prioritizing passenger safety and comfort.
This initiative is part of NNIC’s broader efforts to modernize NAIA and deliver world-class service.
