In preparation for the busy holiday travel period, AirAsia Philippines is offering early check-in to ensure a smoother and easier journey during the Christmas travel rush.
Guests flying from NAIA Terminals 2 and 3 may now check in earlier than usual, allowing those who arrive ahead of time to complete check-in procedures before the standard two to three hour window prior to boarding. This initiative helps guests avoid long queues and supports better management of peak airport congestion.
Check-in counters at NAIA Terminals also open 24/7 to better accommodate arriving holiday travelers.
To save time at the airport, travelers are strongly encouraged to use online check-in via the AirAsia website or MOVE app before arrival. Guests with checked baggage may then proceed directly to the baggage drop counter, making their journey faster and more convenient.
Dedicated service desks at both terminals will assist with inquiries and travel concerns throughout the holiday period.
The airline has also proactively ramped up capacity as early as October to meet the seasonal surge in demand.From Manila, weekly flight frequencies have been increased across key domestic routes, including:
- Caticlan – from 46 to 54
- Cebu – from 47 to 56
- Iloilo – from 28 to 32
- Tacloban – from 24 to 26
- Tagbilaran – from 21 to 24
- Puerto Princesa – from 20 to 21
- Kalibo – from 17 to 19
- Cagayan de Oro – from 14 to 16
AirAsia Philippines CEO and President Capt. Suresh Bangah shares, “In the Philippines, we know Christmas season is one of the busiest travel periods of the year, and at AirAsia Philippines, our priority is to make every journey as convenient and stress-free as possible. We have increased flight frequencies to provide greater flexibility in travel schedules especially for those who are traveling to visit their families or taking a vacation. Our ground staff are proactively working to ensure that guests can complete their check-in process comfortably. We also encourage our guests to check-in online using the MOVE App for a more seamless experience.”
Starting November, AirAsia Philippines has added flights from Cebu to Caticlan, Davao, Iloilo, Kuala Lumpur, and Macao, reinforcing AirAsia Philippines’ commitment to maintaining key routes and ensuring greater travel accessibility during the peak holiday season.
