NAIA (No. 5 Worst Airport in the World)

In the website (http://sleepinginairports.net), our NAIA International Airport has been voted as No. 5 in the worst airport in the world and No. 1 in Asia. NAIA or Ninoy Aquino International Airport hosts all international flights except those from PAL, Cebu Pacific, Air Philippines and Nippon Airways.

2. ParisBeauvais, France
3. Moscow Sheremetyevo, Russia
4. Los Angeles airport, USA
5. NAIA, Philippines

One reviewer said that NAIA: “It has to be experienced to be believed. Think of a bombed out ruin and you'll get some idea. It's like a cattle yard only worse. Toilets filthy. No seating once you get thru customs [maybe 40 seats for a thousand passengers].”

And one acknowledges that “there is hope at this airport if you go to Terminal 3 where it is clean, spacious and has Internet connection.”

Inquirer.net quoted Manila International Airport Authority General Manager Jose Angel Honrado: "We are aware of the deficiencies. We really appreciate the comments and we're trying to correct these things. But please understand that this will take time."

Honrado also asked critics of Terminal 1 to visit the 30-year-old terminal and take note of the improvements such as efforts to renovate the restrooms, reports Inquirer.net. He added that international flights will be moved to Terminal 3 in the next few years but that they are likely to retain Terminal 1 for "spillover" flights.
