- Jahzeel MagdadaroFebruary 1, 2017Try The Wings Transit Lounge @ T3 Level 4 if you have a long layover time. The capsule is charged at P1000/7hrs. This includes unlimited finger food (sandwich,chips,congee) and hot/cold beverages.Upvoted 1 week ago
- The yellow airport taxis and the car rentals are too expensive, and everyone's already going to the departure area for cheaper cabs. The best way to get out is to use Uber, Grabcar, or Easy plus.Upvoted Mar 16
- so much better than terminal 1. Lots of restaurants upstairs before you go through security. love itUpvoted 2 weeks ago
- Arrive early — to avoid queues AND just in case, to get ready to line up. Airport and travel tax need to paid first before you are able to check in! And hopefully the air conditioning is working now!
- Fast pass through security every time. Being friendly and smiling a lot go a long way.
- Long lines at the check in can be a problem here so best to show up a few hours before your flight but overall, the airport's clean and yes, there's good wifi here & wide range of food choices.
- Challenge in Parking space. Be here early during your flight schedule and check out the far side parking slots of the parking area, most likely there are still remaining parking slots.
- Long lines in the departure entrance, if you're in a hurry or or just want to avoid long lines, use the arrivals entrance and go up using the elevators or escalators :)
- Some tips to save time: Always do the online check-in, pay your Travel Tax and Terminal Fee online, and put all the necessary documents in one place
- Loading of passengers for regular metered taxis @ Departure Area is no longer allowed, as of July 26, 2013. boo!!! para tipid, take the HM Shuttle Bus at the Arrival Area, P20 flat rate, to EDSA Taft.
- Globe TelecomMay 7, 2012Make ur conversations last longer when making calls & texts in 11 countries in Asia Pacific. With Bridge VoiceSMS Roam, save as much as 80% on charges. Dial *143# on your Globe Mobile to know more.
- T3 is about the best of the Terminals scattered round NAIA. Home to SQ and CX as well as Emirates it has great lounges and bearable public facilities
- How ever you perceive a Filipino treat them with respect and don’t bring your tradition here! Be nice, a smile makes it so much better, respect the people learn their way, they are amazing!
- Tip from Mindanaoan.com - Islands Souvenirs shirts are sold at same mall/store prices. The Php 199.75 ones are great pasalubong ideas
- MJ BlancoSeptember 24, 2018The place is more comfortable and additional restaurants were added. Book a GRAB once you're done in the immigration and getting your luggage , alot of grabbers are waiting and so the commuters
- If you're bound for nearby cities like Paranaque, Pasay and Makati, take the yellow metered taxi. It's a lot cheaper than the fixed rate cabs.
- Sir Oli ♋ 林大龍September 3, 2013If you will be going to NAIA3 alone and will require parking your vehicle, always get the earliest flight since between 1am to 230am, there are still ample parking slots available. Fee at 50PHP/day
- Victorino Q. AbrugarDecember 10, 2012There are free and unrestricted wifi connections here like NAiA and Globe hotspot. You don't need to enter username or password. You just need to go to your Internet browser and click agree the terms
- I love the domestic flights. Baggage service and VIP treatment fast security check every time.
- Have a cocktail at La amaretto cafe and bar at the 2nd level. Read a book ang get mellow before your evening flight.
- Free wifi, optional e-check in machines, several dining choices at the second floor! It's spacious and getting more eye-pleasing.
- ℳ𝒶𝓎♍December 22, 2015Small and compact easy to get around airport. The Ninoy Aquino International Airport may not be as flashy as the rest of modern Asia's airports but gives you a warm feeling upon arrival/departure
- Cebu Pacific has "self-service" machines where you can check in fast and easy. Great for backpackers or people who don't have check-in lugggages.
- The lines outside builds up and more often than not, causes missed flights and other mishaps. Nevertheless, they have lots of stores now for you to busy yourself while waiting for your flight
- Post covid , surprisingly lots of store are partially open mainly for local gifts and treats to buy . The airport had gone through an update , plenty of seats , charging pods , vaping areas .
- Cathay Pacific Business Lounge looks great. Food is good too. More options than Terminal 1 business lounges
- For domestic flights, make sure to check-in online. Especially if you have no check-in luggage, you arrive at the airport and go straight to the boarding gate. No hassle!
- The queues at the initial x-ray (aka main departure entrance) are mostly long (unlike at the other terminals). Allow enough time for this.
- Check-in your umbrellas, it gets detected from your hand carried baggage and will definitely get confiscated. 'metal sticks' are dangerous! But I got away with my tripod.
- On the departure area entrance, you don't have to fall in line in your specific airline "gate". You can just choose the gate with the shortest line, they don't check your ticket anyway upon entry.
- Regular metered taxis are available on the departures area. Take the escalator/elevator on the left side. Its a lot cheaper than fixed cab rates & airport (yellow) taxis on the arrival area.
- Here for a layover? Try to visit Resorts World across the main highway. They have cinema, restos, several scheduled shows and casino.
- Pete IannettaOctober 25, 2014It's relatively new and gives a great first impression, but once you're past security, it didn't offer much for the weary traveller. And be prepared to queue for the toilet, even the men's!
- Busy during December. For pick-up, use the outer lane in the departure area as it is less crowded than the inner lane.
- While waiting in arrival area, have a cup of coffee or a piece of cake in Le Bistro. Upon order, you'll gain access on better Wifi connection in comparison to the other open networks in the area.
- The best airport Philippines can offer. The wifi connectivity is seamless. The food and waiting areas are really fit for unfortunate delayed flights.
- Hazel BainonMay 5, 2013The air-conditioning is not on! It's so hot inside, make sure to bring your own fan! And make sure to come early because there are a lot of people!
- Hate airport taxis? No transport? There's a shuttle that goes around NAIA 1-3 & Resorts world, this way you can take a regular cab at the mall, it's usually beside the Resorts World Shuttle Service.
- 冰淇淋November 17, 2017This airport is so effin’ warm. I think they installed heater. Try going to the 3F shops area and you’ll know what I’m talking about. The gates area is also very hot.
- Joseph Angelo AragonDecember 31, 2018I noticed that the arrival gates improved. The hallways we're full of philippine related art. It was amazing! NAIA 3 is improving. I hope more improvements in the future.
- Finally an airport worthy of the name "International" ... Very modern, be sure to catch the free golf cart shuttle or else you'll be walking for a while
- Martin BraeckerOctober 14, 2016Terminal 3 appears to be much better than the other terminals. Space and clean 👌👌👌Good choice to book with Emirates.....
- If you're seeing your friends or loved ones off, you can spend a little more time with them inside the airport, enter at entrance 5 for non-passengers.
- Cliptec now @Islands&more NAIA3 pre-departure area. Don't forget 2 check out ur favorite Cliptec Travel essentials like travel chargers, travel adapters,cool audioheadphones, portable speakers&more!
- Cabs are no longer allowed to enter the Arrival area. Be smart and book an Uber or GrabCar.
- Josche EncarnacionSeptember 28, 2016This is by far the best among the airports in Manila, with many shops and restaurants. The free wifi is fast.
- K.May 21, 2012They have a free wifi globeFREEWIFI@MIAA I believe is the wifi name..but you need to start the browser and accept their terms first before you can continue using the FREEwifi :)
- Mon AbagatJanuary 5, 2013If the yellow metered taxis and fixed rate cabs at the arrival area are too much for you, go & head upstairs to the departure area for the regular white taxis. Trust me, it's worth the extra dash. ;-)
- I'm happy that international airline companies started using T3 now. T3 is remarkably better and much presentable than T1 or T2, it gives Philippines a good impression to the travellers.
- Hand-carried bags are limited to 7kg per person. If you bring along big paper bags make sure to tie it properly. Don't carry in bags as big as your cabinets. The compartments can only hold so much
