EXACTLY five months after a massive glitch disrupted hundreds of flights and stranded over 60,000 passengers, the Ninoy Aquino International Airport again suffered another black eye as power was knocked out at its Terminal 3 an hour past midnight of Labor Day.
On New Year’s Day, a glitch in the power system at the whole NAIA complex disrupted air traffic control operations, shutting down the Philippines’s air space. Subsequent investigation conducted by both the Executive and Congress revealed gaps in the system that powers air traffic control, though other experts did not rule out a possible sabotage.
As for the May 1 power outage, Bungag said standby power is now supplying electricity to critical facilities enabling computer systems of airlines and Immigration to function partially and enable processing of both inbound and outbound passengers. As a result, however, delayed flights shall be expected.
The MIAA Engineering team together with MERALCO technical personnel are now looking into the cause of the power failure, she added.
