Good to know if you book an airport pickup for your arrival...

Would suck to have the driver wait in the wrong terminal

Third Terminal

This terminal is solely used by Cebu Pacific for their vast amount of daily deaprtures to all corners of the Philippines. This terminal had a lot of controversy and problems before it finally opened last year.

NAIA Terminal 3 is no longer exclusive to CEBU PACIFIC flights , it is also serving PAL EXPRESS and AIR PHILIPPINES Airlines.

For your connecting flights please coordinate with the ground steward upon arrival.

Also, during emergency cases like extreme weather disturbance in Manila ,flights are sometimes redirected to Diosdado Macapagal International Airport in Clark, Pampanga , an hour drive to Quezon City.

Aside from your pre-arranged airport pickup , there are also available airport taxi just outside the arrival area but here's an important tip for those who will be staying along MRT (metro rail transit) , there is a tourist bus (waiting on the last bay, just outside the T3 arrival area) going to MRT from NAIA Terminal 3 passengers, from T3 to MRT you only have to pay P20/head.

The bus seats about 20 passengers and leaves T3 when full, it passes through Andrew's Ave.then Airport Road right to Roxas Blvd passing by Baclaran Church then right to EDSA take off at MRT Taft Station before it turn right to Aurora and head back to T3. This is ideal for alert travelers with light packs only.

No need for advance reservations, pay your fare (P20/pax) on the bus.
