Abandoned vehicles sit at the parking areas of NAIA
OVER 20 abandoned vehicles, some dating back as far as 2014, have been discovered in various parking facilities across Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
The airport’s operator, New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC), is taking action to remove these vehicles to address potential safety hazards and eventually free up limited parking space for passengers.
NNIC is offering owners a final chance to reclaim their cars before they are towed and impounded.
“These abandoned vehicles are taking up space that should be available for passengers. They are also a security and safety concern, especially in their deteriorating states,” said NNIC. “We are waiving any applicable fees to encourage owners to reclaim them.”
NNIC is conducting further audits across all NAIA terminals and expects the number of abandoned vehicles to rise.
Owners must present proof of ownership and valid identification to reclaim their vehicles. After a grace period, unclaimed vehicles will be towed and impounded at government facilities. NNIC will coordinate with relevant agencies to ensure proper handling.
