|
|
My flight arrives to Manila (cebu pacific) at 10:30am, and I plan to book a flight to Kalibo departing at 1:10pm. I will not be checking bags, just carry-on luggage, and both flights are in terminal 3.
Will I have enough time? |

Yeah, that would be enough time barring a delay in your flight into Manila. |

that's actually way more than enough time. you will probably find yourself bored to tears in there for that length of time. ninoy aquino international is a tiny airport. as long as you don't leave the airport you should be fine because the queue to get back in can get really ridiculous sometimes. |

OP: Terminal 3 it is fine.
NAIA is NOT a small airport. It really depends on which terminal you are traveling into and out of.
NAIA 1 is a nightmare. Full stop. End of discussion.
NAIA 2 is PAL only but you actually have to leave one building and enter the other (opposite wings with a tower in between) when switching from international arrivals to domestic departures and vice a-versa.
NAIA 3 is the new terminal building and is usually pretty quick to get through or switch between international and domestic.
Switching between terminals is also a nightmare and can take HOURS with the exit from one airport, delays due to traffic, entry into and security clearance to get into the other terminal, long queues inside the terminal and then paying the terminal fees, exit fees (international) security and customs queues after getting your boarding pass.

Well, for me, the Philippines since I've been there quite a few times. I'm not a good source at all for other countries in the region. |
