The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) reported all its airports remain open and have reported no damage despite the onslaught of Typhoon Enteng in the country.
However, for purposes of aircraft safety, CAAP has reiterated Memorandum Circular 013-2023 specifying that aircraft with a maximum certificated takeoff weight of 5,700 or less are prohibited from flying under storm Signal number 1.
The circular was signed by CAAP director general Capt. Manuel Antonio L. Tamayo on August 8, 2023.
Additionally, all passengers and crew on both commercial and general aviation flights must undergo security clearance and procedures in the passenger terminal building at CAAP-operated airports.
38 domestic flights were cancelled at various airports due to inclement weather caused by yesterday’s typhoon, CAAP said.
The CAAP has advised passengers to confirm their flight schedules with their respective airlines and arrive at the airport at least two hours prior to their scheduled departure.
