    In the news recently, several planes bound for naia got diverted to clark for various reasons.

    My question is what happens to the passengers? Will the airlines ferry the passengers from clark to naia? or are the passengers left on their own to find their way back to manila?

    Anyone who experienced this already?

    usually pag ni divert.. hintay lang nila gumanda yung panahon.. then lipad ulit sila sa manila.. pag matatagalan... sagot nang airline yung hotel accomodation.. then flight back to manila the next day..

    No free tour of the sights?

    Clark is actually so close they could bus them here...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    what i am interested in are the flights diverted from naia to clark. will the airlines bus the passengers to manila? or are the passengers left on their own? or will the planes fly back to naia weather permitting, meanwhile passengers are stuck at clark and have to wait it out and stay at the airport until such time as planes are allowed to land at naia?

    question, are airlines required to offer hotel accommodation if the reason for the delay or cancellation is of natural causes? alam ko kasi e kung kasalanan lang talaga ng airline like mechanical failure, pilot strike, etc. kaya yung sa volcanic eruption sa iceland, sa airports natulog mga stranded passengers.

    If final destination is NAIA and diverted to DMIA then hintay lang sila sa DMIA nasa loob ng plane until situation in NAIA becomes better, proceed to NAIA. kung mahabang paghihintay due to some circumstances then airline provide ng hotel accommodation (as per IATA rules) then fly to NAIA the following day.

    Airline will not bus the passenger to Manila. airline will fly to it's final destination together with passenger.

    thanks for clarifying, qwerty and shakatak70.

    sometimes you cannot help but think that this country is moving backwards.... slight rain, fog or want not and planes cannot land immediately.....

    i can imagine the inconvenience this causes to travelers. especially if for example your plane gets diverted to clark and you are not allowed to disembark from the plane while waiting for weather permitting conditions at naia.
