Because flight statuses are evolving rapidly throughout the day, MCIA management strongly urges all affected passengers to adhere to the following guidelines:
1. Contact Your Airline Directly: Do not head to the airport if your flight is confirmed cancelled. Please coordinate directly with your airline for rebooking, rerouting, or refund options.
2. Monitor Real-Time Updates: For the latest flight schedules, status changes, and official airport advisories, please visit the MCIA Corporate Affairs link: https://linktr.ee/mciacorporateaffairs.
3. Wear Face Masks: In light of the ongoing volcanic ashfall and potential respiratory hazards, everyone inside and around the airport premises is strongly advised to wear face masks for health preservation.
MCIA is closely monitoring the situation alongside state volcanologists and meteorologists. We appreciate the patience and cooperation of the traveling public as we navigate these natural circumstances to ensure everyone’s safety.
