00:32 Later at 8 p.m., the domestic helper, Annalisa, flew to Brunei. But at 3 p.m., she was already at IA Terminal 3. She said she left Batangas early because she was worried about possible canceled flights due to the earthquake.
00:48 I hope it won't be delayed. Because they're waiting for me to come back.
00:55 The cousins, Mylene and Nika, are waiting here at the airport. They brought their grandmother and uncle to Bacolod today. But they're worried if the flight will continue.
01:07 Their flight might be delayed because we don't have contact with them. If ever there's a delay, they won't be able to continue.
01:16 The operation was continued despite the strong earthquake, but a few flights were canceled. The trip to Cebu Pacific from Manila to Lauag and Manila was canceled.

01:42 The airport's operation to the north was resumed, aside from the Lauag City Airport, where the airport's floor was repaired and the broken window was also repaired.
01:51 Because of the strong wind due to the earthquake, the window fell on the domestic pre-departure area of the Lauag Airport.
01:59 According to the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines, it was repaired and now the supply of electricity to the airport in the north has returned.
02:07 But some changes will be made to the area of the Lauag due to the strong wind, which will affect the international and domestic flights.
02:16 The so-called pre-boarding of the domestic terminal, the ceiling is a bit broken. It is being repaired now.

03:04 We are just cleaning the facilities and runway because that is the most important thing to remove the so-called FOD, Foreign Office Debris, which is very dangerous to be ingested by aircraft engines.
03:21 So before the airport is declared operational, we will clean it.
03:26 But so far, all the airports in Northern Luzon, except for the Lauag, are operational.
